TELL ME THE CHEAP HABITS THAT ARE ACTUALLY BETTER FOR THE PLANET

Everybody seems to be going through a heatwave. Plastic is everywhere. It's hard not to despair regarding the environment — but honestly, change is always possible. Hell, we kind of fixed the ozone! So, I'm wondering: what's one (hopefully cheap) habit people can do that actually does help the planet?

Maybe you've made a concerted effort to seriously lessen the amount of plastic you use. Switching to glass Tupperware, reusable bottles, and plant-based "plastic" products are all good examples. Is there anything I'm missing?

Any tips for washing clothes, reusing materials, or more climate-friendly gardening are welcome. Tell me about it!

Maybe you have an environmentally friendly habit that most people don't even think to do. What is it?

Or maybe there are bigger changes people can make — switching away from fast fashion, for example. Tell me all your thoughts, opinions, and ideas.

Whatever tips you have for helping the environment, big or small (but preferably cheap), let me know. This is the place to be holier-than-thou! I know we all have room to improve, so I want everyone to comment down below. Or, if you prefer, feel free to write something in this anonymous Google Form. Your answer may be included in an upcoming BuzzFeed article.
