You don’t have to raise your own cow or start growing crops in order to have a greener, more Earth-friendly lifestyle. It isn’t about changing who you are immediately. But you can change a few things you do, to help both you yourselves and the world we live in.

1. Cut your bills.

How often do you get home from the supermarket, having spent another hundred yuan to fill your fridge, only to find you’re taking back some lunch meat that never meets a fork? Make a list, stick to it and be sure to eat what you’ve bought.

2.  Grow it yourself

If you have enough room outside your window or a backyard for a few plants, make 2014 the year you start growing. There are many websites with advice on what time of the year is best to plant certain things, what kind of soil (土壤) or extra care they need and how to start growing.

3.  Don’t just dump it.

Rather than sending an old piece of furniture to a landfill, can someone else make use of it? Does any of your friends or neighbors like it? Is there a secondhand store where your old things can find a new home? At the same time, you might find cheap chairs, old-styled cupboards or some lovely curtains on a secondhand website.

 There are many ways to make a greener living. Follow the above advice, be smart and remember that small steps can add up in big ways.

66. According to the passage, a greener lifestyle is good for __________.
