World Earth Day- Small Steps we Can Take to Protect our Species

Our world is blessed with millions of beautiful species. However, over the years, rapid industrialization, excessive pollution, and dumping of plastic waste are posing a great threat to these species. Our reckless behavior is one of the reasons why every other day we get disturbing news of aquatic animals choking on plastics. Considering the alarming situation, the theme of this Earth Day, celebrated on April 22nd every year, is “Protect our Species”. As we have already done some irreversible damage to Mother Earth, let’s pledge this Earth Day to take some small steps to protect the species and ensure a better future for the generations to come. However, before we delve into the details, let’s read some shocking facts about our global species.

Earth Day 2019

Facts about Global Species

  • The percentage of land creatures has dipped by 40 percent since 1970
  • Approximately 40% of the birds’ species have decreased and 13% are facing extinction
  • Approximately 60% of Earth’s primates are threatened with extinction
  • Approximately a quarter of coral reefs have been damaged beyond repair
  • 75% of the toothed whales are negatively affected as a result of bycatch in fishing
  • A lot of the world’s large cats will be extinct by the next decade

How can we Help to Protect the Species?

So, what can you do to protect these species? Here are a few small steps you can take to protect our species and maintain the ecological balance.

Say no to Plastic

Approximately 30 million plastic waste generated every year is drowning our planet into pollution. The first small step is to avoid using plastics as much as possible. Instead of plastic bags, use jute or paper bags for shopping. In addition, stop using plastic water bottles as these are not only harmful to the environment but also pose a threat to health. Use vacuum bottles or flasks to store water. These are not just hygienic but also maintain the temperature of the liquids. Lastly, instead of buying drinking water, switch to a water purifier, which provides clean, germ-free water on demand.

Conserve Water

Water wastage is another serious concern that is a major reason for the extinction of the species. Some of the places are fast running out of the water, which will have an impact on the entire eco-system. When you use less water, there will be less runoff. This also ensures that wastewater doesn’t end up in the oceans.

Recycle and Reuse

The key to conserving our nature is recycling and reusing. Composting reduces waste going into the landfills and also the amount of space needed to hold the waste. Purchase products that can be reused and recycled. Make sure you store these in separate cans for recycling goods and don’t mix them with one-time use products.

Reduce Energy Wastage

Burning fossil fuels is one of the main reasons for climate change. This is the reason why there has been a quick biodiversity loss. Start conserving energy at home by switching off lights, fans, and other electronic appliances when not in use. If possible, use solar energy whenever possible to reduce the effects of climate change.

The Take-Away

Though the situation is alarming, the rate of extinction can be slowed. Many of the declining or endangered species can be saved if we follow the steps mentioned above. This Earth Day let’s pledge to do our bit to conserve our planet and hope for a better future.

Not just outdoor, the poor condition also affects the indoor air quality, which makes it extremely important to take steps to curb the situation. Read on to find out the dangers of air pollution and the effects of not controlling pollution.

Dangers of Air Pollution

Catastrophic Impact of Air Pollution in the Future

The impact of increasing air pollution is more dangerous than you think. If air pollution is not controlled, by 2030 the air will become so poisonous that it will be necessary to use an oxygen kit to breathe easily. Rising air pollution will also lead to premature aging. Human exposure to air toxins will also increase by a great extent if air pollution is not controlled. The Environmental Protection Agency exposure to pollutants is directly linked to cancer and heart disease. The excessive level of air pollution not just has an impact on human health but also the entire eco-system. The combination of acidic air pollutants and water droplets leads to acid rain, which kills trees and also harms animals.

As predicted by the Inter-Governmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC),    there will be an increase in the average temperature of 1 degree Celsius by 2025 and 3 degrees Celsius by the end of the 21st Century. In the last few hundred years, greenhouse gases (small amounts of water vapour, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone) have increased as a result of rising population and industrialization. The stratospheric ozone layer, which filters out harmful ultraviolet rays increase the risk of skin cancer, eye cataracts, depress the immune system, harm aquatic system and crops.

Can air pollution be controlled?

The level of air pollution has reached such an extent that controlling pollution will be a slow process. This is the reason why you need to take small steps to control air pollution. Taking steps such as carpooling, have car emissions tested, minimizing clutter, limited usage of room fresheners can go a long way in controlling air pollution both indoor and outdoor. Some other ways to control air pollution are:

  • Use energy efficient light bulbs
  • Use energy efficient appliances
  • Choose environment-friendly
  • Keep your cars well-tuned and maintained
  • Turn off lights, computers, and appliances

How can we protect our health from air pollution?

An ‘alarming’ 7 million people around the world die every year as a result of air pollution. Not just outdoor, but also indoor air pollution affects health and well-being. The alarming statistics makes it necessary to take the right steps-both indoor and outdoor to stay safe from pollution.

Why are Eggs ideal for Muscle Build-up?

Building muscles are not as easy as you think. This is the reason why what you eat is just as important as the type of workout. Many of the gym goers depend on the post-workout shakes, which don’t serve the purpose. Consuming proteins post work out can help you build muscles, especially if you lift weights regularly. Thanks to KENT Instant Egg Boiler, you can easily get hard, medium and soft-boiled eggs within minutes. So, if you have just started working out, the blog is for you. Read on to find out why you need to eat eggs for muscle build-up.

KENT-Instant-Egg-Boiler

Helps in Protein Synthesis

After a strenuous session of workout, your muscles build protein through the process of protein synthesis. Eating eggs after a workout session provides protein to your body in order to fuel the protein synthesis process. Many people throw away the egg yolk and consume only the egg white after their workout session. However, a study found that eggs yolks contain protein and other nutrients, which are not found in the egg whites. In short, eating eggs yolks boost your body’s protein synthesis.

A Rich Source of Vitamins

Eggs are not only a rich source of proteins but also a number of vitamins. In addition to 6 grams of protein, eggs are also a storehouse of Vitamin A, E, K, B12, riboflavin, and folic acid. The healthy food option also contains essential amino acids, which are needed for muscle recovery and building minerals such as calcium and zinc.

Source of Good Fat

A common myth about eggs is they contain fat, which is harmful to your health. Egg whites contain no fat at all whereas the yolk contains 5 grams of fat. However, the yolk contains only 1.6 grams of saturated fat (bad fat). Bodybuilders looking for muscle build-up need fat in foods, especially at a time when the energy requirement is high. Eggs also contain diary cholesterol, which doesn’t increase the blood cholesterol level.

Last Few Words

Kent Egg-Boiler

You already know that it is important to include proteins in your diet after a workout session. However, instead of drinking shakes after a workout, which may not provide the desired results, you can have a helping of boiled eggs. The shakes that you drink don’t contain a balance of the essential nutrients that you need after a workout session. Loaded with all the essential vitamins and protein, eggs are all you need for muscle build-up.

Corded vs Cordless: Which Vacuum Cleaner is Right for you?

Vacuum cleaners have become a necessity for every home. With time, there have been a lot of changes in the design, technology, and size of the vacuum cleaners. Gone are the days when you had to carry bulk and noisy bagged vacuum cleaners to keep your home dust-free and clean. At present, people prefer using handheld vacuum cleaners for that are easy to use to remove spots, pet hair and any other dirt. However, the competition is between corded and cordless vacuum cleaners. So, in this blog, we discuss the difference between cordless and corded vacuum cleaners and which product will meet your needs.

Vacuum cleaner for home

Suction Power

The most important consideration when choosing a vacuum cleaner is the suction power. Strong suction power helps in removing different types of dust, dirt and pet hair from various areas of your home.

Corded Vacuum Cleaners

Corded vacuum cleaners have a higher suction power as they are plugged into the mains unit. This is the reason why corded vacuum cleaners provide better results, especially if you are cleaning carpets. Corded vacuum cleaners are ideal for cleaning bigger homes, which have a lot of carpets, pets, and kids.

Cordless Vacuum Cleaners

Cordless vacuum cleaners work on batteries, which is the reason why they start losing suction power. However, cordless vacuum cleaners that come with lithium batteries may last longer and also provide consistent suction power. In short, a cordless vacuum cleaner works only till the time the appliance has battery life.

Portability

Portability is an important factor that users need to consider when looking for a vacuum cleaner.

Corded Vacuum Cleaners

A corded vacuum cleaner may not be as portable as a cordless one. A portable corded vacuum cleaner comes with a power cord which is approximately 20 feet. However, wrapping the cord of the vacuum cleaner is an issue that many people face. This is the reason why vacuum cleaners from KENT come with an auto-retractor cord, which keeps it safe from damage.

Cordless vacuum cleaners

A cordless vacuum cleaner offers better portability and convenience as you can easily move the appliance. Some of the cordless vacuum cleaners can also be easily converted into handheld cleaners to clean quick spots. This makes cordless vacuum cleaners ideal for pet owners.

Dust Capacity

The dust collection capacity of a vacuum cleaner is also an important factor to consider when looking for a vacuum cleaner.

Corded Vacuum Cleaner

Corded vacuum cleaners have a higher capacity of collecting dust as compared to the cordless one. In addition, the canister doesn’t need to be emptied frequently. This is the reason why corded vacuum cleaners an ideal appliance for people who suffer from allergies.

Cordless Vacuum Cleaner

Cordless vacuum cleaners have a small capacity as compared to the corded ones. This is the reason why cordless vacuum cleaners need to be emptied and cleaned more often as compared to the corded ones. Not cleaning the filters or emptying the dust cannister affects the performance of the vacuum cleaners.

The Bottom Line

Whether you need a corded or cordless vacuum cleaner depends on your cleaning needs. The size of your home, the carpet area, and if you have pets or kids, are some of the important points to consider when choosing a vacuum cleaner. If you have a small home, a cordless vacuum cleaner is a right appliance for you. A corded vacuum cleaner is ideal for large homes that need a thorough cleaning.

Soap is also less effective in hard water as it reacts with excess calcium and magnesium salts. These minerals are not soluble in water and result in the soap film. Using soft water for hair gives a different result as it leaves less insoluble deposits on the hair. This is the reason why you need to wash your hair with soft water.

What’s the Possible Solution?

The only way to maintain your hair health is by using soft water. The traditional methods of making hard water soft doesn’t serve the purpose.
