I love to travel and explore new countries, but have become more and more conscious of the impact we are all having on our planet. Back home in Surrey, England I wanted to see what everyday changes I could make to try to improve my own impact on the planet.
My first observation was to reduce my personal waste consumption. I therefore went to do my weekly shop with the aim of buying nothing packed in plastic. 20 minutes later I walked out the supermarket empty handed having struggled to buy anything! More research was needed and I soon worked out it was a minefield out there. I started asking question like what products can I buy, where do I get them and will it cost more?
Having now spent some time researching the answers to these questions, and many more, I wanted to share my findings. I hope, by documenting my experiences, others are inspired to take their own #stepstochangeđź‘Ł.
I welcome any questions or ideas from others.

P.S. I am not here to be negative about any company trying to help the planet. Should I try a product and not get along with it I will simply not talk about it, and look for another alternative. Finally I am not being paid to use the products/shops I talk about this is all my personal opinion.
