I created this website after spending countless hours researching how to live more sustainably. I found lots of useful information, but it was scattered across dozens of different websites. My aim is to bring practical, reliable advice together in one place so that other people don't have to spend as much time searching.
This website is regularly updated as new research and guidance becomes available. I understand that some of the suggestions are stating the obvious, some impractical for many people, some too expensive, and some just won't wash with ones other half. I certainly do not do everything suggested here.
About the Website
I appreciate that with many things, it isn’t always black or white, what is the best option to take, and my understanding, and the scientific understanding itself, is always evolving. However, I am a firm believer that individuals should take personal responsibility to do what they can, where they can, with the knowledge that is available.
I have set up this website as a resource and to provide ideas to help individuals in the UK to lead more ethical, sustainable and environmentally friendly lives. Having wasted away many hours googling looking for guidance in how to live more sustainably, or at least a little bit more sustainably, in respect to one aspect or another in my life, it occurred to me that it would be helpful pulling together all the best information I could find and posting it in one place. Since I live in England it primarily focuses on England, but some suggestions are equally applicable across the UK.
