One of the things I’ve been thinking a lot about recently is being kinder to the planet, to the #environment, being more sustainable and my impact on the world around me.

Sustainability

I’ve always been contentious & recycle, reduce my plastic waste, slowly switching beauty products to ones that don’t test on animals & use #biodegradable packing, I try to have at least two vegetarian meals a week, check for sustainable Palm Oil in products, use an eco egg for washing, only use the heating when I have to & also only go with companies who use renewable energy and I do make conscious choices towards my sustainability.

But This Year…

I want to do more! I recently watched a documentary on Neflix with David Attenborough called A Life On Our Planet and it really made me think. Along with stalking Nancy from True Horizons online, I want 2021 to be the year I make a bigger difference, to have a lower carbon footprint and work towards better sustainability.

I am pledging by the end of 2021 to;

🌳Remove as much one use plastic in my house as possible
🌳To drive less, resulting in lower emissions
🌳To ask questions about a companies #sustainability and environmental impact prior to working together
🌳Have all my beauty products switched
🌳Eat less meat
🌳To donate to a charity regularly that have a positive environmental impact

Because of these promises I have started my journey by taking part in True Horizons 3 Day Climate Action Challenge. I’m hoping this will help me look at my business, analyse what I do, how it effects the environment and how I as a small business can make changes to lower my carbon footprint, improve my sustainability and be kinder to the planet.

If we all do something small, it will make huge changes. I’d love you to get involved and make pledges with me! What will you do this year? Drop us a message.
