Have any of you folks watched Leonardo Dicaprio’s ‘Before The Flood’? If you haven’t and aren’t sure how to improve your contribution to the environment, my recommended first step would be to watch this excellent documentary. Covers everything from automobiles and energy needs to our food consumption.
If any of you need free copies, let me know. Will post a link. It’s available for free viewing on vimeo.

Glad you watched it! Am just happy that we have folks here interested in our environment and sustainability…
This documentary has been a significant milestone in my life, an eye opener. I started learning more about and practicing sustainable ways of living, including owning an EV, after watching this.

This is one of the best documentary i have ever watched on climate change issue…
Info obtained from duration 1:47:00 to 1:53:00 was mind blowing… Also info from 49:00 to 53:00 was a great shock… Everything boils down to what public chooses to consume, what they choose to believe…

Glad you watched it man, I hope it helps make a positive difference in your lifestyle … 
@everyone: Again encourage you all to watch the documentary. Dicaprio is a UN ambassador and therefore covers the effects of the climate crisis worldwide with focus on countries like India.

To reduce my carbon footprint as well as the waste generating my house few steps I have taken:
1.) Unplug/Switch-Off devices when not in use.
2.) Stopped purchasing synthetic fabric and only purchase clothes made of organic cotton or bamboo fibre. The reason being every time you wash a synthetic fibre small plastic pellets release from the clothes which mix with water and goes down the drain and go any where and everywhere the water goes thus spreading the contamination. Also purchasing natural cotton helps the farmers.
3.) Buy organic vegetables which are grown without synthetic/harmful fertilizers. The only downside of this is that self life of vegetables and fruits is way less but it encourages me to not stock in vegetables a lot an only buy as much is needed for a few days.
4.) Floor Cleaner, Shampoo, Soap, Laundry Detergent, Utensil Cleaner that I use are bio-enzymes made of orange peel and bubble-nut which even when goes down the drain doesn’t pollute the water and can also be reused. E.g the water after moping the floor is used for watering plants.
5.) Carry container if I want to do a food takeway no matter what, I do get stares from other customer but at-least I don’t feel guilty about the plastic that I would have instead brought homw.
6.) Try not to buy things which are sold in plastic and if you have to make sure it is recycled, actually you can NEVR recycle plastic, you can only DOWN-CYCLE it i.e made something else with it but every time you send it for down-cycling the quality of plastic decreases hence chemical additives need to be added to make it strong. Moreover dirty plastic can never be recycled hence I make sure whatever plastic I give for recycling is cleaned properly. Also, read between the lines e.g check for 
symbol on every wrapper and the number written inside it e.g if number 6/7 is present inside this symbol it can’t be recycled 
e.g Lays Packet, Toothpaste Tubes, Plastic Cutlery.
7.) Substitute plastic with bamboo wherever possible e.g toothbrushes. Bamboo grows much faster than wood and only absorbs 30% more CO2.
These are few things I do along with a lot more, sorry for the long post
