hello & an intro

Ever since the birth of my son last year, it's been slowly dawning on me that there are lots of little things I could be doing to "greenify" my life. Yes, I know it's a been a bit slow coming. But, as they say, good things take time...& this is a very good thing.

I know I can't single-handedly save the whales or reduce the hole in the ozone layer or stop the world's sea levels from rising. Not on my own, anyway. But I can make little steps towards developing a sustainable lifestyle that helps reduce the impact my family & I have on this planet.

Yes, the change is gradual. Yes, my changes won't make much of an impact on their own. But any change is better than no change. And if others also make changes to their lifestyle, then the cumulative effect will grow. Which is why I've decided to keep this blog.

I really encourage you to have a go at making the commitment to living a more sustainable lifestyle. You don't have to save the whales single-handedly either...but there might be something here that appeals to you. That you know you could implement in your own lifestyle. And any change is good, right?!
