Here are some other ideas to get you on your way to reduce plastic use in
your home:
Toxic chemicals, such as solvents, cleaners, and darkroom chemicals, are
often dumped down drains because people don't know what else to do with
them. A great community service project would be to organize a day for
these substances to be safely disposed of.
Building a pond can be an ideal way to attract toads, salamanders, and
frogs to your backyard. Keep in mind that frogs hibernate every winter, and
that it takes at least three years for tadpoles to develop into adult
frogs. You will have to provide these amphibians with a permanent body of
water - at least half a metre deep - if you want them to survive beyond
their first summer.
The Canadian Wildlife Federation is committed to understanding the extent
to which plastics are infiltrating our waterways, as well as how they are
affecting the wildlife that live there.
