Getting your household gas & electricity set up with a renewable provider will increase demand for green energy, save you money in the long run and contribute to a meaningful and over due culture shift.

 Big banks like HSBC, Lloyds, AMEX, Santander, and Barclays invest heavily in industries like big oil and warfare using the money in our savings accounts. While we earn minimal interest that barely keeps up with inflation, these banks profit from funding harmful markets, leaving us and the planet to bear the cost. 

Time to change.

 Many people today struggle to find work they love or jobs that don’t cause anxiety. But there are countless global issues that need attention. Just look at the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. If you’re struggling with motivation or climate anxiety, consider a job that contributes to positive change—it’s a powerful way to help the world while also helping yourself. 

 The climate crisis is worsened by a culture that silences tough discussions - like criticising the government, the royal family, or colonialism - due to inherited patriotism or shame. But these are vital topics for understanding the roots of the issue. The crisis is happening whether we talk about it or not, so let's shift our culture, embrace uncomfortable truths, and start the conversations needed for change. 

 When have you ever opened up about something and not felt lighter? The more we talk, the more we can find solutions together. Discussing tough issues creates space for change and collective action. 

Rising costs, anxiety, worsening food, inequality, and fascism, are all linked to the climate crisis. 

Ignoring it will lead to regret. 

You’ll feel it sooner than you think.

Get up. Demand change. Encourage our elders to join & fight for the livable future we have had stolen from us. 

When others fight for you, you should eventually start fighting back for them. 

Fish populations are vanishing, dairy is a rape industry, and industrial meat is filled with harmful chemicals, antibiotics, and steroids. As a species, we’re eating our way to planetary instability by consuming the dead at unsustainable levels. 

You don’t have to give it up completely, but cutting back is vital—for your health, the animals, and the planet.

What you buy- and where it ends up - is YOUR responsibility.

If you can recycle, donate, restore, share, or freecycle it - do it. Don’t be lazy. 

Every item you discard doesn’t just disappear, it ends up in the environment, harming ecosystems and the planet

Manage the output, and hold everyone else accountable too. 

Stop buying from high-street stores. If a shop is easily accessible, it often means it's harmful - brands like Shein, Zara, H&M, Temu, Urban Outfitters, Mango, Bershka, Stradivarius, and even luxury names like Gucci, Prada, and Louis Vuitton all contribute to environmental destruction and exploitation of people.

I encourage you to buy less but invest in higher quality pieces. The connection and confidence you feel in your clothes grows when you take the time to search for them - almost like foraging. Then, getting them tailored or fitted locally makes the experience even more meaningful, helping you truly value what you own, and feel confident in what you have created. 

Plastic is a scourge, and it’s made from oil. Companies like BP, Shell, ExxonMobil, Dow, and ChevronPhillips have  pushed plastic into industries like clothing (polyester) & cosmetics (petroleum). 

For decades, they've known the damage and spent billions manipulating us into thinking it’s not so bad. 

I’m outraged by this and do everything I can to avoid plastic—whether it’s polyester clothing, single-use plastic, or anything else.

Danger. Avoid plastic at all costs.
