article: The best way you can discourage people from littering is by setting a good example. Don’t throw your litter on the ground, pick up litter you see and dispose of it in the trash when you see it, and don’t throw any litter (including cigarette butts) out of your car. You can also check to make sure that any trash cans you own have a securely fitting lid. A huge source of litter comes from the trash cans that we set out to be collected. If the lid doesn’t fit securely and the trash can gets knocked over, the litter will be blown all around the neighborhood. If you see a friend or family member littering, explain to them how that one piece of garbage can have a huge environmental impact. Explain how litter that you throw on the ground may not seem like much, but that litter is usually blown around until it ends up in a stream, river, or the ocean. In addition, litter can harm or even kill many animals who might ingest or get caught in litter. Try to remind people that even if they don’t see what goes on, litter that is thrown on the ground will, at some point, become the problem of another human or animal. It may be tempting to go point out that littering is bad, but you may provoke someone into a physical confrontation if you catch them on a bad day. If you want to do something about the littering, go pick up the trash they left and dispose of it yourself. Unfortunately, some people don’t really care about the environmental consequences, but they probably care about spending money. Talking about the potential fines and even jail time that a person can face if caught littering might give people a reason to dispose of their garbage properly.  Every state in the US has created strict laws about littering. If you are caught littering, you will probably have to pay a fine that can range from $20 up to $3,000, and you could even face jail time depending on the situation. Be sure to warn people that when they litter, they are breaking the law. On this webpage you can find out what the penalties are for littering in your state. Many people don’t realize that the state often spends millions of tax dollars in order to clean up litter. If there was less litter to clean up, the state would be able to spend people's tax dollars on improving other things, like public transport and education. Explaining this to people could help discourage them from continuing to litter. You can find out about how much your state spends on litter prevention programs by doing an internet search. For example, using the search terms, “litter prevention program” plus the name of your state.

article: It can be easy to do things out of anger or hurt after a breakup. This is especially true when there is a bad situation after a breakup. But doing things out of revenge, jealousy, or desperation will only make things worse.   Don’t try to do extreme things to make your ex realize that you two should be together. For example, don’t stage an accident to make your ex see how much they need you. You could end up seriously hurt and your ex still might not come back. Don’t bad mouth your ex or try to do things that make them look like a bad person. It will only make you seem angry and resentful. This is a way to allow yourself to express how you are feeling about the breakup without letting it consume your life. An ‘Obsession Diet’ helps you cope with a bad situation after a breakup because it limits the time you spend obsessing over the situation.  For the first few days after the breakup allow yourself to cry, grieve, rant, or do whatever you need to do to express how you are feeling for five minutes each hour. After the five minutes are up, you have to wait until the next hour to obsess over the breakup. The next week reduce it to four minutes an hour. Reduce the amount of time each week until you are done. It is also important to avoid exposing yourself to your ex through social media. Un-friend your ex or stop following them to avoid triggering hurtful emotions. Also, remove their pictures, clothing, and other reminders of your ex from the home. It is easy to lose yourself when you are a relationship and think more of ‘we’ than ‘me’. For example, you may forget that you like olives on your pizza because you and your ex always ordered meat only. After a breakup, especially if it was a long-term relationship, you may need to remind yourself of the things you like and don’t like.  Make a list of activities you enjoyed before the relationship started. Try at least one thing on the list each month to discover what you still enjoy. Explore interests and dreams that you have put on hold because of the relationship. For example, if you’ve always wanted to go zip-lining but didn’t because your ex is afraid of heights, then go! You may be feeling down about yourself after the breakup, so remind yourself of your worth and all the great things about you. Do things and spend time with people that help you realize all of your positive qualities.  Make a list of all of your skills, traits, and qualities that make you the great person you are. Read the list out loud to yourself in your mirror as often as you need to. Do things like volunteer or become active in the community in order to give back and remind yourself you are a good person.

article:
Have a talk with your partner during a relaxed time about how you want to handle fights. Come to an agreement on how you expect to work through issues and the kinds of behaviors that are unacceptable. Hold each other accountable for sticking to these rules. For instance, your rules might specifically limit certain behaviors, such as no insults or name-calling, no yelling, no bringing up old arguments, no absolute language (like you “always” or “never”), and no walking away before things are resolved. It can be nearly impossible to  actively listen and  show empathy to your partner when you’re angry or hurt, so postpone the discussion when tempers flare. Say, “Let’s take 10” and go do something that helps calm you down. Try  deep breathing, counting to 100 silently, or taking a walk around the block. Oftentimes, you and your partner may be so caught up in your own unique points-of-view that you don’t even realize you’re disagreeing over completely different things. Before the discussion progresses, take the time to clearly name the issue at hand.  Both of you can grab a sheet of paper and write down what you’re upset about and then try to guess what your partner is upset about. Then, swap papers. If you’re off the mark, work together to agree on one issue to discuss. Then, keep to this issue. “You” statements make the other person defensive, which means it's harder for either of you to get your point across. Opt for non-threatening “I” statements instead. Hear the other person out—without interruptions—before saying your part.  An “I” statement might sound like, “I feel scared when you threaten to end the relationship over minor disagreements. I wish that we could work through issues without having to threaten a breakup.” After you’ve shared your perspectives, there’s no need to rehash how things went down. That’s now all in the past, so you should invest your energies towards the future. What can you do to resolve the issue?  Ask your partner a question to initiate compromise like, “What do you need from me?” This question helps you move beyond the technicalities onto looking at the bigger picture. Let each partner provide a few ways the other can make amends and meet their needs. Ultimately, this can bring you closer.
