    How much water is used at home? 80-100 gallons a day? It is shocking, and 24% is used in the bathroom! I have made a pledge to switch off the bathroom sink tap water while brushing, only turn it on as needed, and not keep it running continuously until I finish brushing my teeth.

    Using my car. If waiting more than 5 minutes in the car, I would switch off the engine.

    I started applying a waste segregation program to remove my waste. Also marked the waste bins outside the house to provide more context to my action, reminding the waste collector of the segregation policy being pushed by the Estate.

    As part of my sustainability goal, I made it a mandate to switch off all lights or electrical appliances in my house when not in use, especially when I am not in the home or when going to bed. When in bed, I use the electric fan instead of the air conditioner to reduce electricity consumption and the emission of ozone-depleting gases.

    I have to switch off the car engine if I am waiting for someone for more than 5 minutes. This is my plan to reduce carbon emission.
