Improving the 'sustainability' of my lifestyle

As a student, I can't do so much for sustainability, but as a human, I think I have the responsibility to do my best to improve it.

In my lifestyle, I could do many things to improve the 'sustainability' although some of them haven't been done yet. For example, don't use the material which is difficult to decompose such as plastic bags；save electricity and water, turn off the light as leaving the room, take off many plugs as I can when I go to bed; recycle writing paper, use both side of paper when I print; walking or cycling when I travel a short distance, but not driving; make own dishes at home, but not to eat fast food as the container could be plastic. There still many ways but I haven't found yet, although they are small things in our life, if we pay a little attention on these small things, there would be a lot improvement of sustainability.

But sometimes these little things couldn't be done as some reason, or we could not let everybody to pay attention on this. For example, selfish people or uneducated people; or when we print something on paper, we can't make a both side printing as the limitation of the printer. But this reason can't stop the step of improving the sustainability which we are making, the sustainable development have to be done, no matter for us or our children.
