5 ways to be just a little more eco-friendly
In your kitchen
Buy in season! Skip the produce that’s had to be flown halfway across the world, or else you’re gonna need some big shoes for that carbon footprint! Check out this seasonal shopping guide, and think of all the delicious fruit pies you can make!
In your wardrobe
Be a conscious consumer! Fast fashion is a very real threat to the environment, so try to only buy the things that you truly need and love. Even better, buy second-hand to break the cycle of reckless consumption! Afterall, a healthy planet never goes out of style.
In your bathroom
Save your singing for the stage! In other words, use your shower for washing only. An average 10 minute shower wastes around 75–190 litres of water, so try to keep your lather time to 4 minutes. Unless you spend your days rolling in mud (which actually sounds very fun), you shouldn’t need longer.
In your car
Well, just don’t use it. At least not everyday. If you opt for walking, public transit or biking even just 2 days per week, you’ll be saving about 2 tons of greenhouse gas emissions each year. Also, you’d look amazing in those silly trouser-straps that bikers wear.
In your life
Talk about it! Really, it’s that simple. Too many people think that climate change is too big, too far away or too sciencey to understand. Check out this TED Talk to learn more about the importance of chatting about the earth. We recommend having a nice biscuit while you do your chat, but that part is totally up to you.
