Compost Your Leftovers - 31 Oct 2005

Been doing this for about six months now and cannot believe the results (even if I do find I need to pluck up courage to lift the lid because it’s alive in there)! I am using some ecological accelerator which works well.
Put Your Money Where Your Heart is (Bank Ethically) - 31 Oct 2005

Changed our banking would also need to change investments away from current mix of not very nice people.
Use your LOAF at the shops (Local, Organic, Animal-Friendly and Fair Trade) - 31 Oct 2005

Finding it easy (but expensive) to do the organic and fair-trade bit. Shopping locally is not something that we have explored yet. Tried an organic fruit box from a local supplier but couldn’t get what we wanted.
Ban the Bulb! - 16 Feb 2006

Don’t be put off my memories of the older energy light bulbs that were, quite frankly a bit dim! I have found the latest flourescent tube bulbs to give out a much brighter and nicer light than the incandescents that they replace. They are also available in all sorts of shapes, screw and bayonet, spot, candle – you name it. Some even have daylight sensors built in so they turn themselves on and off!
