DAILY ACTIONS
Transportation
Stay home and not travel at all
We should stay home and keep social distance during COVID-19 times anyway. By committing to stay home I can eliminate not just reduce unnecessary travels.

DAILY ACTIONS
Electricity
Use fan rather than air conditioning
Switch to fan to replace air conditioning for at least 6 hours a day. It's super hot in Hong Kong and with everyone staying home most apartment units turn on their air conditioning.

Finally got a chance to wear this sustainable jacket for a morning walk as it's getting cooler in Hong Kong. I passed by the Alexander Grantham fireboat this morning. Unfortunately we're in the middle of Wave 4 of COVID so the fireboat (museum) is closed. Alexander Grantham (fireboat) - Wikipedia

Thank you for your post. I have read through several similar topics! However, your article gave me a very special impression, unlike other articles. I hope you continue to have valuable articles like this or more to share with everyone! quordle
Jacket looks great Michelle! And interesting to learn about the fireboat. Fingers crossed for your move out of Wave 4 as quickly as possible. Wishing you a healthy new year and moments of joy and gratitude.
I went shopping for a winter sports jacket last night and learnt that some brands had started to use eco-friendly materials. I ended up picking a couple Superdry padded jackets that used recycled polyster (rPET) for the polyester fill. On average, 10 plastic bottles are utilised in each Superdry padded jacket. It's great to look fashionable and be eco-friendly at the same time.
Sounds great. Can we see a picture of you in one of your jackets? Maybe when you are on another walk? Love the one you posted last week; helps me to feel like I am ‘visiting’ new places and ‘meeting up’ with colleagues, while keeping our carbon footprint low ;-)
I came across some good tips on how to save electricity at home and would like to share with everyone. Note that the savings estimated on the website are in Canadian dollars. :) https://www.bchydro.com/powersmart/residential/savings-and-rebates/everyday-electricity-saving-tips.html?WT.mc_id=rd_21tips
I came across this old article from Reader's Digest when I was looking for energy saving ideas. I was shocked to hear "Roughly 50 devices and appliances in the typical American home are always drawing power, even when they’re not being actively used."
I try to cook all meals at home during COVID. And when I order take-out, I try to order from restaurants that use paper packaging rather than plastic packaging.
