Today’s world can seem like a pretty depressing place – big corps who place profits over the planet’s welfare, greenhouse gases polluting the atmosphere, fast fashion and sweatshops enslaving hard-working people with little return for their efforts, deforestation – when did it all get so bleak? But before this piece brings on a fresh wave of eco anxiety (we’ve all been there!), there is hope by choosing to live a more ethical lifestyle. Chances are if you’re holding this very magazine, you care – for others, for animals and for the Earth.

As we always say, start small and make little changes before tackling the big things. Here’s some tips to get you going.
