Eco -Tip: Alongside carbon cutting we need to push for big system changes. It’s not one or the other - we need to do both because they feed-off each other. The first step is to reflect on your own biggest areas which might include Family and friends; they can be tricky and challenging. We need to remember that we’re all at different points on the journey and the experience of environmental emergency. We have to find ways of moving in directions which bring us closer to the people we most care about. Why not try a family and friends litter pick as a good starting point.
