Have you been “eco-shamed”?

Every generation is more eco-conscious than the generation before it…and they’re not afraid to call you out on it!

A new survey in The Sun found that 40% of parents have been “eco-shamed” by their kids!

How? Let us count the ways:

  1. For throwing something in the garbage that you could’ve recycled
  2. For leaving the water running
  3. For leaving lights on in a room after you left
  4. For buying things in non-recyclable packaging
  5. For not washing out cans and other items so they can be recycled
  6. For buying things like balloons or plastic straws
  7. For leaving the TV on
  8. For leaving electrical items plugged in when they’re not being used
  9. For using the car instead of walking
  10. For leaving the door open when the heat or air is on

Sounds more like a “Dad-shaming” list to us…has it happened to you?
