Go Eco and be Econ!
Save the Earth, Save your money
low carbon lifestyle is the way to go. everyone can do our part to save the earth, in return you realized you will save money too.
some tips:
- wash using energy-saving washing machine. wash only with full load of clothing or hand wash if you have a few pieces.
- sun drying clothes instead of using dryer.
- get wrinkled free clothes as the ironing time can be shorten and easier to iron.
- cool food before sending them to the fridge. hot food will take up more energy when you put them to cool.
- use energy saving fridge, they go a long way.
- use energy saving air-conditioner or opt for air-cooler. air-cooler is better than fan during humid day, at the same time they are good enough to cool the room without the use of air-conditioning.
- can walk, don’t take transport. can cycle, don’t drive. if you really have to drive, use “Econ mode”. after all not everyone has EV.
- turn off engine when waiting. it can create pollution when you are stationary. too hot, then wait somewhere instead of the hot car.
- when the car is too hot, don’t turn on air-conditioning immediately. open both sides of windows, allow natural cooling before turning on air-conditioning.
- collect rain water for plants-watering
- bring own recycling bags and ask for no plastic bags. if you have plastic bag, always reuse, recyle and give it more than one use.
- bring own water bottle, cup and container when doing takeaway. reduce the use of one-time cutlery and utensils. takeaway using own containers can save you money.
- bulk items in bulk and opt for delivery that is non-peak hours. it helps to reduce the need for re-ordering and cabon emission caused by delivery.
- sort and properly clean your recycle items before putting them into the sorting bins.
- give away clean and useable or wearable clothes to people who might want them. rewear is also recycle and reduce waste.
- donate fabric or sports shoes in charity collection drives. the items are professional recycled for other purposes. such as our running tracks.
- use auto heating or instant heater instead of pre-heating heater. pre-heating can take up more energy.
- take shorter and cooler shower. turn off the tap when soaping or shampooing. avoid soaking bath in bathtub.
- use energy saving lightbulbs like LED. they are getting cheaper these days and they can go a long way.
- open both sides of windows to allow natural air circulation, it helps to bring in air into the room.
- use pressure cooker instead of slower cooker or long hour stove boiling for slow-boiled soup.
- use microwave to cook rice with less than 20mins. a rice cooker can take up to an hour just to cook rice.
- cook more rice and keep in fridge, reheating using microwave or steam them in smaller portions instead of keeping to cook small portions.
- use instant water pot instead of re-boil water pot. most time you just need for a cup of coffee and tea, it’s fast and cost effective to boil just enough using instant boil. re-boiling pot took lot of energy and not good as water just get rebook in large quantity.
- grow your own herbs, make your own sourdough without using artificial yeast, make your own Keir water and kombucha. they are natural probiotics without need to buy them. less buying less wastage.
- defrost or thaw overnight in fridge. thawing outside can create germs. if you are defrosting using running water or microwave, they are using energy.
- use broom or dryer paper wiper instead of vacuum cleaner. the whole house might just need 2 pieces of paper wipers.
actually reuse, reduce, recycle, repurpose, rewear can start with our daily lifestyle.

Aurelian : why do bears live in fear???
Syuee : Now, I am feeling inspired to make my own Kombucha (with sustainable bottling, of course) !!
HengOngHuatlahOP Syuee: Even better! Flavoring using over-ripen fruits! They are also a good alternative for alcohol
when you brew them with high alcohol contents.
