The aim of this blog is to look at ways of lessening our individual impacts on the environment, cutting out carbon emissions, generally treading more lightly…
Subjects to be covered will include lifestyle issues, home life, work life, family life, travel and transport, food and drink, animals and so on.
The aim is not to present utopian examples of a green life – but to suggest practical ways of making our everyday lives a bit more environmentally friendly. Most people dont have the option to grow their own organic vegetables, and make their own clothes from the organic cotton bush they just planted… so how do us normal people find ways of treading more lightly?
I’ll also be answering some of the essential or basic questions, which I get asked quite a bit – things such as: ‘is it ok to fly?’ ‘why should I be reusing plastic bags?’ or even ’shouldnt we just be telling the Chinese to stop burning so much coal?’
So watch this space for regular posts about ways and means of making your world green.
As for me, well I’m a journalist, writer, and a charity worker amongst other things. If you really want to know more about me, read my personal blog: rhymin simon which contains stuff and nonsense about all my favourite topics, from music to rugby, comic books to cookery and from politics to religion… and whatever else comes to mind at the time of writing.
So there we have it, welcome to the new blog, and do stop by for a chat as we get going on greening our worlds.
