The year 3s and 4s, 8 and 9 year olds loved the book and illustrations. The Litter Bingo [free activity] was fun for all the family. Loads of families have been out litter picking since around the town and country side. It has really inspired them to think more about what they are using in their homes and how they can reduce their waste. The children enjoyed reading the book and showed their friends too.

SIMPLY SUSTAINABLE IDEAS

Have you asked ‘what is the point?’ recently when hearing or reading the news regarding global warming, climate crisis, plastic pollution, recycling and reducing waste? You are not alone. There is so much conflicting information about what we should or shouldn’t do. What we can and can’t recycle. How we should or shouldn’t travel. What you should or shouldn’t buy.

So many ifs and buts and do’s and don’ts. Then add to that brands and companies not making it easier. Green washing their adverts and slapping you with green herrings all over the place. Lulling you into a false sense of security that you are doing something good until BAM, the knowledge hits you that the eco-friendly option you thought you made is not as environmentally friendly as expected.

All you want is to do your weekly shop and not feel guilty!

If all this and more is buzzing in your head, you are in the right place. Welcome to Simply Sustainable Ideas.

My promise to you is that you will find at least one thing that resonates with you, and one change you can make starting tomorrow.
