Climate change is upon us and after having recently watched 'Before the Flood', the Leonardo Di Caprio super documentary on it, I am starting to feel a little bit guilty about it all. We are all to blame, we can't point the finger at any one single cause, there are so many factors contributing to the accumulation of noxious gases in the atmosphere. HOWEVER we can do our little bit, and 2017 I think I am going to try and be more environmentally conscious. Here are the four things YOU can do to lesson your environmental impact:
1) Use less plastic, a product mostly derived from crude oil. I mean have you heard of the Great pacific garbage patch!!
2) Stay away from 'Fast Fashion', invest in clothes that will last or are easily repairable, buy what is needed. Fast fashion is literally drowning the world, It has the biggest environmental impact after crude oil! check out the facts.
3) Cycle to work more and use public transport whenever necessary. Simples
4) Last but not least, eat vegan... well at least try. I'm not going to completely write off beef just yet and the whole vegan argument is complex (another post another day) but one can't deny the huge environmental impact the meat and dairy industry has.
