Default engine code P1457

The code means Evap emission control system leak detected (control cannister system)

Is there a solution to this that is inexpensive? Like maybe some glue or tape

I think it is not a major problem, I am mainly concerned about putting out the light in case something important shows up.

maybe your gas cap is not tight enough, and/or need to clean your EGR.
