Sustainable living tip: Check your taps for leaks

"Check your taps - one drip per second wastes around 1200 litres of water in a year, that’s around 4 litres a day.  A new washer is all that might be needed to stop that drip.  Never changed a washer? Click here for instructions."

Sustainable living tip: Buy all-natural clothes

"...buy clothes made with natural fibers, such as cotton, hemp, and wool, and made with all-natural dyes (such as vegetable dyes or herbal dyes). By wearing all-natural clothes, you'll be helping the environment by avoiding cloth that required a lot of energy and waste to produce, and you'll be helping yourself by avoiding irritating and uncomfortable synthetic fibers and unhealthy chemical dyes."
