Category: Zero Waste Living

Zero waste living is a topic that has become so important over the last few years.

I have realised since becoming a mum just how much wastage goes on in our everyday lives. And it has become apparent that this needs to change. And fast, or I fear for our planet’s future.

As I really do want to leave my daughter a less polluted, less plastic populated planet, I think it is time that we try to make a difference. I am trying to be a bit more zero waste. Every little helps. I want to try and help and inspire you to make some of the same changes I am making. I’m not perfect, but I am trying.

So here you will find an archive of all my zero waste living posts that contain some kind of solution to the ecological challenges that we are facing today. I talk about reusing, recycling and reducing what we use and need. There is a lot in these posts about decluttering. The Swedish people call it Lagom. If we all make small changes then maybe our children can inherit a cleaner, less polluted world.
