The day is nearly over for me but I wanted to post something as this is such an important issue.  I don’t do enough to help the environment. I know this. But this post is about what I DO do:

• I think about the environment everyday whether it is recycling a bottle or turning off a light switch
• We have just switched to using reusable bags for our weekly/fortnightly grocery shop. This has taken far too long but at last we won’t have dozens of plastic bags every time we shop.
• The standby button has been banished – TVs are turned off when they aren’t being watched as are all other electronic equipment.
• Clothes that don’t fit are either donated, recycled or if the fabric is lovely, put in my fabric box ready to be made into a gift r some other crafty thing.
• We recycle everything we can: glass, plastic, paper/card, tins
• We have a compost bin to recycle suitable food waste into compost to feed our garden
• I think about how beautiful the world is

It’s not much but it’s a step in the right direction.
