While waste and pollution are always threatening our environment, there are daily deeds that can be done ourselves, to help counter the threat they pose. These are greening activities that are part of our lives, in the garden, or in our communities. Called green deeds, these are actions that we can do or events that we can participate in to make a difference. 

As people try and recycle waste more, reduce rubbish collection volumes, and try and have less junk in their lives, these actions also add some impetus to the progress against waste buildup and landfill pressure. 

Keeping communities clean of rubbish starts with homeowners and business owners. The broader communal areas are mostly the responsibility of the local Councils along with groups that are helping protect nature. 

Private waste management companies like Junk Removal Wirral are also key contributors to waste management control through rubbish collection, junk removal, and the responsible disposal thereof. 

It Starts in the Garden 

A well-cared-for garden has many benefits. Not only does it add value to the house, but it shows that the homeowner is involved with green activities and takes an interest in maintaining the green space that they have where they live,

This starts with the way the garden is cared for, how garden refuse removal is done, together with other rubbish removal actions taken. Collection of junk could be through some regular arrangement with a service provider like Junk Removal Wirral, to maintain the general cleanliness of a home and surrounding area.  

As we approach the springtime, a garden cleanup is recommended. The purpose of this is to get the old foliage out of the way to make way for the new shoots that are expected as the temperatures warm up. Here are some good deeds that will smarten up your home. 

The Spring Cleanup 

A year’s growth in the garden is enough to warrant a dedicated day of hard work, trimming branches, cutting, and pruning plants and undergrowth. The green deeds don’t stop at this point, it’s what is done with the garden debris that is important. 

Chipping and making compost is about adding value to the garden by using the foliage to break down into organic matter which is beneficial to the organisms and small creatures that live in this environment. Not only that the microclimate created by organic matter attracts worms and birds to our garden. Worms convert organic matter into more beneficial regenerative natural fertilizer by making enriched compost. 

These actions reduce the garden refuse that needs collection too, so the action taken at source by the homeowner helps reduce the amount of junk that needs to be disposed of. 

Keeping the curb clean 

Garden refuse cleanups extend to the curbside too, and curbside appeal is another dimension of attracting both visitors and birds and insects to your garden. Old growth needs to be cut back and blocked drains and driveways need clearing out at this time.

The advantage of having a neat and attractive curbside is that visitors notice that care is taken of the residence, including this area, and find value in it. 

Keeping parks and open spaces clear 

With open natural spaces of green forested areas being highly important for the mitigation of climate change, their protection and maintenance are crucial. As plants are the main medium for reduced carbon dioxide levels through their ongoing uptake, reforestation, and afforestation assume a very critical role in our society. 

It means that all natural areas need protection and action must be taken when trees are cut down without authorization. 

On-the-ground waste like plastic, glass, and other packaging supplies that don’t find their way into the right disposal channels are some of the main polluters of the environment. At this time it is vital to keep parks and open spaces clear of rubbish. Teams that can clear waterways and rivers in spring help provide a clean environment for aquatic creatures and birds. 

Grow Your Own

A very rewarding project that can be started at home is an organic vegetable garden. Growing your own is satisfying and a very productive way to circulate garden waste materials. Starting a compost heap with the garden waste and adding food scraps from the kitchen is a worthwhile thing to do. 

Adding some worms to the mix means that there is a means to break the compost down without having to do anything and in this way the availability of organic fertilizer is just on your doorstep. 

Create areas where the enriched soil can be maintained, for example in beds that are boxed in and supported by wooden borders. Consult a seed guide to make sure that the seeds you have in mind are planted at the right time of the year to ensure that an optimum yield is obtained. 

Growing your own is one more step to independence and self-reliance, saving time money, and energy in the process. It is a very rewarding thing to do as the waste generated goes back into the soil for beneficial use. 

Choose the Right Waste Management Partner
