What are some easy ways that you can improve energy efficiency and be more eco-friendly in your rental apartment?

For starters, you can add weather stripping to outside-facing doors and windows. If your landlord doesn’t want to pay for it, then it can be found cheaply on aliexpress. Also, add insulation outside-facing switch covers and outlet plates.

Eat more plants, transportation is <10% of the food supply chain. For beef it’s <0.5%. ourworldindata.org/food-choice-vs-eating-local

Nothing wrong with in season / local produce, but the bigger impact (by orders of magnitude) is switching off meat

RvTV95XBeo,

Literally linked a whole article showing the emissions breakdown of meat vs plant production.

RvTV95XBeo,

And the production of meat is ~5-10x worse than almost all plant food sources.

RvTV95XBeo,

Got suggestions for effective ways (that are affordable and available today) of reducing meat production?

RvTV95XBeo,

Got a steam mop - just use plain water, will never go back. If there’s a particularly dirty spot I may hit it with a little dish soap and a scrub brush, but otherwise it’s 99% steam cleaning.

RvTV95XBeo,

Idk man, I’m more of a nano guy myself for most things.

RvTV95XBeo,

I agree with this, but honestly I use filtered water from my fridge. I considered it a bit of a middle ground, still harder than distilled, but better than tap.

RvTV95XBeo,

You know on Lemmy you can edit your title to fix typos, right?

RvTV95XBeo,

Y’all just got acres of land laying around needing trees on them?
