Sustainable Co-living: Embracing an Eco-friendly Lifestyle

Our planet is undergoing significant changes, and embracing sustainable practices is now more important than ever. At Dash Living, we encourage co-living, a shared living arrangement where people live in a community with shared amenities. This can be a great way to reduce negative environmental impact!

How Co-living Promotes Sustainability

There are many benefits to co-living. By living in a shared space, you can reduce your energy consumption, waste output, and transportation needs. You can also learn from your fellow housemates about ways to live a more sustainable lifestyle!

Here are some ways co-living promotes sustainability: 

  • Less waste: When you share amenities like kitchens and living spaces, you can reduce the need for individual appliances and furniture. This can help to minimise waste and landfill space!
  • Sustainable transportation: Train stations, bus stops, and even light rail stations serve as convenient hubs for commuting, providing easy access to various parts of the city without the need for personal vehicles. Co-living spaces are usually strategically located near these transportation hubs, promoting a car-free lifestyle, reducing carbon footprints and enhancing commuting convenience.
  • Community: Co-living provides an opportunity to connect with like-minded people who are also interested in sustainability. This can help you learn new things and stay motivated to live a sustainable lifestyle!

There are many things you can do to make your co-living space more sustainable. Here are a few tips:

  • Compost food scraps: Composting is a great way to reduce food waste and create nutrient-rich soil for your little plant friends.
  • Conserve energy: Turn off the lights when you leave a room, and unplug electronics when you’re not using them.
  • Eat local and organic food: Eating local and organic food can help to reduce your carbon footprint and support sustainable agriculture.
  • Use reusable items: Bring your own reusable water bottle and/or coffee mug to work/school. Remember to also bring your own shopping bags when you go shopping. Many vendors are going green now and will charge a small amount for plastic bags, so bring your own to save the earth and some money!
