When I play video games (beat Jack Julka in 2k), I burn a lot of electricity. Electricity is the process that burns the most fossil fuels from coal burning power plants. @franklinlorax #apesair

While I have been in quarantine, most of the time I have just had my shades open to get natural light, while keeping my room light off, so that I can save electricity. This is an easy but effective way to do so! @franklinlorax #apesenergy

That is a good idea Jack! I might do the same.

This is actually a great way to slowly cut down on your electricity use!

Luckily we can utilize the same land for different activities as well! At least I know what land I’m supposed to go the bathroom on - HAHA 😎🐶

This is such a great idea to maximize the potential growth of the plant!!

This is a view from my front porch. I live in a suburban neighborhood, which is considered a low density environment. These environments use more land and are spread out, whereas a high density area like a city, has more compact housing (apartment style)#apesland @franklinlorax

This is the reusable cup I use when I drink water. Instead of wasting a bunch of plastic water bottles, I refill this cup using the water from my refrigerator, which helps minimize my ecological footprint for the greater good of the earth! @franklinlorax #apespop

Wow, that’s impressive. I try to reduce my footprint in other ways, but this seems tough. Maybe I can try cutting out meat once a week and keep working towards bettering the earth little steps at a time!

Looks like a sick ride especially with friends! Great job reducing your ecological footprint!!

@AR508514apes @franklinlorax The 4 seasons really are a good mix and we are lucky to live in a biome like ours. Good to see Sadie is enjoying it just as much as we are!

Because Franklin is in the temperate forest biome, we get to experience weather of all four diverse seasons! Sadie especially likes all the snow in winter ❄️ #apeseco @franklinlorax

@DM508449apes @franklinlorax Layla is such a cute dog!! It’s interesting that she is a k strategist, but not all animals are, like my brothers fish, an r strategist.

This is my brothers fish, Rex. Rex is an r strategist which means that it is a generalist. It also reproduces in great amounts (more so than a k strategist) and focuses on quantity over quality. #franklinlorax #apeseco

When I brush my teeth, I make sure to keep the water off while I am not using it. This helps save water when I don’t need to be using as much in the first place. If we all did this, we would save so much water over just a short period of time!! @franklinlorax #apeswater

This is something so simple that everyone can do that would actually make a big difference in the long term! Good idea!

This is so key! It really does add up and can end up saving so much water if everyone did this over time.

This is a reusable grocery bag. It is good to have a bag to reuse instead of getting new paper/plastic bags every time you go to the store. The bags you get at the grocer will only go in the trash when you are done using them anyway. #apesintro @franklinlorax

I agree with what you said. Using these containers can lessen the use of other items such as little plastic baggies or straws that can only be used once. With that, once they are used once, they are thrown away and sent to a landfill, where they will sit, hurting the environment.

Good point, it really helps save the environment from harmful CO2 emissions. #apesintro @franklinlorax
