beauty school earth month 2012As an Aveda student I try to be as environmentally friendly as possible. Aveda does all that it can to save the Earth and more people should be aware of how they can help.

It’s as simple as recycling your empty bottles or turning off the water when you brush your teeth.  You can also make sure to reuse anything you can, be creative with it. Most things can be recycled into something helpful if you give it a thought!  You can donate to companies that are pro-Earth and even be a part of the action! Also, help by picking up any trash you see.

There is only one Earth, help it stay as pure as possible and do your share!

AVEDA does a number of things to align itself with being environmentally friendly.  AVEDA uses all natural products outsourced from different places around the world. AVEDA also helps create jobs in the cities they get their products from. AVEDA’s manufacturing plant uses all wind power to fuel production. Everything that AVEDA uses is recycled from packaging, to gloves, to everything we throw away. All of our shampoo and conditioner bottles are made from recycled materials. We also conserve water while shampooing our guests and performing spa treatments by turning off the water.

This is why I chose to be an AVEDA Institue student.

“Our mission at Aveda is to care for the world we live in, from the products we make to the ways in which we give back to society. At Aveda we strive to set an example for environmental leadership & responsibilities, not just in the world of beauty but around the world”. Some Earth month tips that I suggest people try in order to be more environmentally friendly is first, recycling!

I know it’s hard trying new things, but sooner or later it will be become a great habit & very useful! Another tip is unplugging as many things in your house if you don’t use it everyday, or just when your going out of town it will also help save your bills! Every little thing will count so let’s make it count!!!!!

To be more environmentally friendly there are many things that everyone can do. Using a water fillter and refilling a travel water bottle saves the earth from being filled with thousands of plastic bottles. In New York City alone, you could line all the thrown away plastic water bottles to the moon and back.
Another thing you can do is water your outside plants at night. When people water their plants at noon the sun dries up most of the water and the plants have to be watered twice as much. At night, the plants need less water which saves more water for the rest of the planet.

Some Earth Month tips that we can suggest people try in order to be more environmentally friendly are things like cutting your showers short. By cutting your showers short you reduce your water usage which can help save the fishies. Also, the old reduce reuse and recycle tricks are good ideas. Reduce your electricity use by turning off lights, reduce your water usage by shorter showers or turning off the water while you brush your teeth. Reuse your old water bottles instead of grabbing a new one everytime you drink water, or reuse old shopping bags as trash bags. Recycle your water bottles and pop cans, paper and whatever else that can help cut back the trash buildup that harms our environment.
