It feels like it took forever, but summer is finally here! Not only does summer offer a wide variety of fun outdoor activities, such as swimming and picnicking, but it’s the perfect time of year to make some environmentally friendly changes in your life. Here are some of our best eco-friendly tips for summer.

  • Speaking of picnics, make yours eco-friendly! At Whole Earth Packaging we have eco-friendly products that are great for summer picnics. From dining utensils to cups, you’ll find many great biodegradable products for all of your picnics!
  • Instead of taking your car, ride a bike or walk to the farmers market or the local park.
  • Plant a garden and start growing your own fruits and vegetables.
  • Cool down your home by avoiding the stove. Stop cooking meals on the stove and eat meals that don’t require cooks, such as luncheon meat sandwiches. You can also cook outside on a charcoal grill, using eco-friendly coals.
  • Washing the car? Make sure to turn off the water when you’re not using it.
  • During cool nights, turn off the air conditioner and open the windows.
  • Hang your clothes on a clothesline to dry.
  • Collect rainwater in buckets, and use it to water flowers and your garden.
