Want to adapt a more sustainable lifestyle at home? Now is the perfect time to do so because sustainability has become undeniably important and urgent, as humanity reportedly has only 10 more years to prevent irreversible damage to the environment.

During the 73rd session of the United Nations' high-level meeting on climate change and sustainable development on March 23, 2019, General Assembly President Maria Fernanda Espinosa Garces of Ecuador emphasized why everyone should act now.

“We are the last generation that can prevent irreparable damage to our planet. Eleven years is all we have ahead of us to change our direction.”

So, if you're planning to make your home and your lifestyle eco-friendlier, then you're on the right track.

Below are photos that illustrate simple and achievable steps to a more sustainable living at home.
