1. Reduce paper and wood use. Paper use can be reduced by recycling paper, and also adding extra tariff to companies who use excessive paper each year. We can adopt a more tech lifestyle, such as email rather than faxing, electronic paper use for schools and businesses, and emailing purchase slips.
2. Plant more trees- In order to save rain forests and live in a sustainable environment we need to plant trees, substantially and commercially.
3. Opt for re-usable materials such as re-usable shopping bags
4. Education-spreading the word on the deforestation and loss of habitat happening in rain forests can raise awareness and allow people to make conscious decisions.
Creative persistence is often useful when one is designing an experimental paradigm for example. It is useful tweaking different parameters of an idea which is much easier when one is creative - this is also at the core of scientific research very often.
