  1. Give Something Away - and declutter your life -

    I have sold some stuff on e-bay but always felt I would rather the money went to charity, so I made a donation to the cat protection league and today took a whole bunch of stuff to the local cancer research shop.

  2. Buy Presents That Make A Difference -

    last year my nearest and dearest recived goats and fruit trees, as they are all city dwellers these things are donated to nice children in africa who will make sure they are well cared for….., try greatgifts.org , I’m doing the same again this year.

  3. Compost Your Leftovers -

    marvellous stuff compost, most councils are now selling affordable bins, I do leaf mould as well, make some pals and clear their gardens of leaves for them.

  4. Slow Down, Calm Down (Stick to the speed limit) -

    I always do this, it seems to drive other road users insane, our local streets are “20 is plenty” due to a nearbly school and nursery, unfortunatley they are often driven on at frightening speeds

  5. Sign Up Online To Become An Organ Donor -

    may he, she, they enjoy!!

  6. Phone a friend - make the effort to keep in touch! -

    this is a nice thing to do, just needed a push!

  7. Energy Efficient Cooking -

    I always cook rice or pasta like this and steam the veggies over it, also works in the oven with roast veggies

  8. Calculate your carbon footprint -

    mine came to 7.66 tonnes per year, is there anyway of finding out if this is average/above/below?
