The cosmetics and chemicals in the cosmetics make their way through the drainage system into the soil, oceans, and other bodies of water after you wash your face. These chemicals never go through any filtration or cleaning process before they are disposed of in rivers and soil. Ultimately, these toxins are consumed in food and water as part of our daily lives. It is a serious threat, and yet, we are still unaware of it. It is called Forever Chemicals a.k.a PFAS. Today, these forever chemicals are contributing towards the adversity of climate change as well.

We say that diamonds are forever, we say some friendships are forever. Contrary to diamonds, friendship, and emotional bonds, chemical bonds are also forever, and they’re extremely dangerous. Moreover, they can reduce our responses to vaccines, limit our growth, increase cholesterol, and can lead to heart diseases. In short, these chemicals can shorten our life span, and ironically these chemicals are called Forever chemicals.

This episode is the part second of the previous episode but you don’t need to necessarily listen to part 1 for catching up on this. This episode has its own independent pointers that will help us as individuals to understand the possible ways in which we can reduce our carbon footprint. The overall idea is to help derive a mindset — so that the reduction happens by default and through our habits.

Almost everything in this world runs on the chain of demand and supply. The more you will demand, the more it will be produced. So the easiest way to minimise anything which is adversely affecting us is to reduce its demand.

In this episode of Conscious Citizens we will learn about four things that will help us fight the climate emergency:

1. The Habit of Recycling
2. Home Energy Usage
3. Shopping Habits
4. Exercising your Rights
