Being the change you wish to see in the World!






Given the challenges we, humans collectively face on the planet right now. We all need to take swift action as a matter of urgency to secure our children's future and that of future generations. Simple changes like limiting food waste is a start(Landfill space is running out), thus contributes to noxious gases ie methane into the atmosphere and this creates the greenhouse effect in global warming and climate change. An alternative is to compost all your organic waste instead(Vegetable peelings, teabags, egg shells etc.). We have to accept limitations and cannot go on expanding and consuming eternally in order to protect and conserve life. Here on Earth We are all interconnected to the source. Our future is at stake!

Living simply ie consuming less, going veggie,meditating, avoiding those unnecessary flights and lobbying your local MP really can make a difference to saving our future here on Earth.

And for the activists amongst us I can't highly recommend Oxfam's media shaker workshop enough(It's free:)for invaluable tips to campaign for a healthy and safer environment for us all(You meet lovely inspiring people just like you:0). If you are based in the South-East contact Lucy today!

ooh that sounds like an interesting workshop. how do I contact lucy? Just via Oxfam?

We got a compost bin, but for our yard it caused a shed load of fruit fly infestation. SO we are going to change it for a wormery which I think work better in smaller spaces.

Wormeries are great(I do love those tiny slimey creatures:)for making light work of those leftovers(lucky you:0)!

As for contacting Lucy try doing a Google search under 'Lucy campaigns Oxfam Soth East'. I hope this helps!
