Lifestyle Bookazine Green Living Made Easy Third Edition Edizione posteriore

What can we as individuals do to solve the climate crisis, the greatest problem the world has ever faced? The answer, quite simply, is plenty. We can make small and easy changes to our lives – to our homes, our buying habits, the way we eat and the modes of transport we use. We can think twice about the levels of energy we burn and the amount of waste we send to landfill. Four years ago the world committed to the Paris Agreement to hold global temperatures to no more than 2C above pre-industrial levels – seen by scientists as the outer limit of safety. In 2020, the UK hosted the landmark UN convention that holds the world to account. But is enough being done to meet those historic pledges? The timing is crucial. Can we all wake up to what Sir David Attenborough calls ‘the greatest threat in thousands of years’? When we put our own homes in order, we send an important message to those in power. So this magazine is packed with practical ideas to help you do just that. Happily, many of these changes will save not only the planet, but your hard-earned cash too.
