There’s a lot of information about environmental impact and it can feel
overwhelming and confusing. There are many small ways to make a
difference. Big supermarkets have plastic bag recycling bins which also
take empty crisp and sweet packets. You can drop them off when you do
the weekly shop. You can make a positive impact on environment by buying
only the things you need and choosing products that are built to last.
There are websites that do the hard work for you to check the ethical
credentials of brands. You don’t need to be a crafting or DIY expert to
get involved. Some charity shops now list on eBay or have their own
online shops. An online mission for a specific quality item in a fixed
budget can be more rewarding than a large haul of fast fashion taking up
space in your wardrobe.
Making a small change doesn't have to be difficult. It can be
fun!
