    I have learnt to pay more attention and the need to educate both myself and the others.
    education is powerful and its power grows proportionally.

    Set your fridge/freezer to a higher temperature so they don’t need to work so hard. If you are defrosting food, always defrost it in the fridge because then the frozen food will keep the fridge cooler!

    If you have a regular boiler, turn down the thermostat on the hot water tank. This will mean the water in the tank never gets too warm. There is little point producing scalding hot water in the tank if you then simply add cold water in your mixer shower or bath to get it to a nice comfortable temperature. Making sure it is heated to the right temperature (and stored at the right temperature too) in your hot water tank is a great way to save on your heating bill and this is done by turning down the thermostat on the tank.

    We love shopping at the local Greengrocers and Butchers!!  Not only do you get fresh produce, but you can also get your cabon footprint down and step count up, whilst your hard-earned cash lands in the pockets of local small businesses.  I call that Win Win Win Win !

    I have been Pescetariansince August 2019, one of the main reasons is due to the carbon footprint left by the meat industry.

    Solar power is pollution free and causes no greenhouse gases to be emitted after installation.
