towards sustainability? Explain it.
Lisa believes education is key to change for a few reasons:
Knowledge Empowers Action: By educating herself on sustainable living, Lisa gained the
knowledge to make informed decisions in her daily life. This could include anything from
understanding the impact of different products to discovering new eco-friendly practices.
Spreading Awareness: Lisa likely understands that individual actions are important, but
large-scale change requires collective effort. Education can spread awareness about
environmental issues and inspire others to adopt sustainable practices.
Long-Term Solutions: True sustainability requires not just individual actions but also
systemic changes. Education can equip people with the knowledge and critical thinking skills

utilize renewable energy sources or support local conservation efforts. You also
practice responsible waste management by carrying reusable items and

Composting Food Scraps: You've set up a composting system in your
backyard or kitchen, diverting food waste from landfills and turning it into
nutrient-rich compost for your garden. This reduces methane emissions from
landfills and promotes healthy soil.
Energy-Efficient Lighting: You've replaced all traditional incandescent light
bulbs with LED bulbs throughout your home. LEDs use significantly less energy,
resulting in lower electricity bills and a reduced carbon footprint.
