Australians Urged to Go Green to Save Endangered Wildlife

Australians are being encouraged to adopt sustainable practices and support local markets to help protect endangered wildlife and reduce waste. With an average weekly grocery spend of $193, choosing certified sustainable products can make a significant environmental impact.

Swap meets and online marketplaces offer affordable alternatives to buying new items, helping to reduce consumption and waste. By using a reusable Keep Cup, hundreds of non-recyclable, non-biodegradable coffee cups can be saved from landfill each year. Additionally, composting food scraps can help lower greenhouse gas emissions.

Iconic Australian animals such as the east coast koala, parma wallaby, eastern quolls, and glossy black cockatoos are at risk of disappearing. Over 2,000 Australian animal and plant species are facing extinction. An organisation is collecting a petition to strengthen national environmental laws and protect these endangered species.

By making sustainable choices in our daily lives, such as buying certified sustainable products, using reusable items, and composting, we can help protect endangered wildlife and reduce waste. Supporting local swap meets and marketplaces also contributes to a more sustainable future.
