6 Habits of Green Conscious People

If you’re interested about the environment and want to start doing something, we make it easier for you to go green in the new year. We have compiled a list of 6 habits (adapted from our ebook) that we find common in friends who are green conscious and environmentally aware. More details on the 6 habits are found in this Squidoo lens. Learn the 6 habits now, and take action to improve and protect the environment.

The 6 habits of green conscious people include:

1) Respect all life and renew your bond with nature and its biodiversity

2) Improve your environmental awareness and knowledge

3) Practise the 3 “Rs” – Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

4) Spread the environmental message and influence others

5) Support local environmental initiatives and groups

6) Use your rights as citizens and consumers

The habits begin with first developing your “Self” by respecting and renewing your relationship with nature and its biodiversity, improving on your understanding of environmental issues and knowledge, and taking personal actions to reduce wastage and overconsumption.

Next, move on to influence your “Family/ Friends/ School/ Work/ Group” by spreading the environmental message to others such as family members, friends and colleagues, and convincing organisations that you belong to, such as schools, companies, religious or social groups, to be environmentally friendly.

Finally, go one step further to shape your “Community/Local Environment” through supporting environmental initiatives by the government and environmental groups, volunteering or participating in activities organised by the groups, and exercising your rights as citizens and consumers to influence the status quo on the environment.
