    The document lists daily activities that can disrupt water, carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus cycles, and ways to make those activities more environmentally friendly. Specifically, it notes that doing laundry with phosphorus-containing detergent, using synthetic fertilizers, burning plastic, and overusing water can harm cycles, but using alternative detergents, lawn fertilizers, avoiding single-use plastic, and rainwater storage are better options.

    environment-friendly.

    Daily Activities / Practices I do which I think


    Ways I can change these practices for
    disrupt the following cycles:
    more environment-friendly.
    Water, Carbon, Nitrogen and Phosphorus
    Laundry (Phosphorus Cycle) Use a non-Phosphorus containing
    detergent.
    Synthetic Fertilizer (Phosphorus and Use Lawn Fertilizers instead.
    Nitrogen Cycle)
    Burning Plastic (Carbon and Nitrogen Cycle) Avoid single use plastic and recycle and
    reuse plastic.
    Water Overuse (Water Cycle) Store rainwater for things such as
    washing the car and watering plants,
    make a rain garden.
