Top 5 Ways to Be Sustainable Every Day
Travel Mindfully
Transportation is one of the biggest contributors to carbon emission. Consider carpooling with friends and family or use a transportation service when you are attending the same event or attraction.
Leave No Trace
When visiting Montgomery County parks and trails, remember to respect nature and dispose of waste by utilizing the proper trash cans.
Learn About Our Local Ecosystem
Visit the John James Audubon Center, Riverbend Environmental Education Center, or Valley Forge National Historical Park to learn about our local eco-system and the animals we share it with.
Reduce & Reuse
Heading to the grocery store? Don't forget to bring a reusable bag. Doing this will not only decrease plastic bag waste, but may save you some money off your grocery bill.
Shop at Farmers Markets
Purchase your produce from local farmers markets. One of the many benefits of a farmers market is that everything sold is fresh, and locally grown. Since everything is locally sourced, the farm to table journey results in a lower carbon footprint.
