This Christmas gives to the environment. Besides being free, it is essential for the survival of all animals on the planet, including humans. Apply the 3 Rs: Reuse, Recycle and Reduce Energy Consumption.

All human activities leave traces on the planet. We call this the carbon footprint. Driving, sending WhatsApp or watching movies on the digital platform pollutes the environment and releases greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. The most dangerous and abundant is CO2.

What do these gases do? They capture infrared radiation from the sun and in doing so raise the temperature, leading to the famous climate change. It’s a kind of goose pickaxe and I’m shooting because it’s my turn. Everything is related. Therefore, follow these 5 simple rules:

1º Buy local products. The Mediterranean diet is the best in the world. Look for healthy foods around you that protect the health of you and the planet.

2º Save energy. Turn off the light and check the tools when not in use. Conscious and reasonable use of these is very important. It’s not a question of whether you can afford it, it’s a question of showing solidarity with others. To be responsible.

3º Plant and maintain trees. Imagine that a person needs about 8,000 liters of oxygen every day, and this is produced by 22 trees per day. In other words, when you go to the mountains, a natural area, or any existing park in the city, remember that 22 of the trees you see planted for survival must provide you with the oxygen you need to breathe. . Forest areas are essential for survival. We are dead without trees. Therefore, protecting them as they deserve is not a choice to be made, but an obligation to be fulfilled.

4º It supports the use of renewable energy. They are energies obtained from natural resources that renew themselves before they are exhausted. Being on their side is a matter of the future and common sense. Don’t forget.

5. Let’s ask our managers to implement the parameters of the UN 2030 agenda. The world needs to be more sustainable.

Please, let’s relinquish responsibility in protecting the planet this Christmas and act accordingly. It is very important to do this because after all, there is no better gift than life.
