Family Tips

 

Holidays

Food

Take the train not a plane. Planes use 8 times as much oil-based fuels as trains.


Growing your own vegetables is a great way to educate your children on the benefits of organic food.

Toys

School

Host a toy swap party with friends to exchange toys that your children are bored with. This will save wasted packaging and money.

If walking to school is out of the question car-share to reduce your carbon footprint.

Babies

Clothes

Make your baby's food from home in large batches and freeze in ice cube trays for later use.

Hand-me-downs shouldn't carry a stigma. Pass on children's clothes as much as you can. Children grow out of clothes so quickly, often their clothes have been barely worn.
