Happy new year from me and my little bird. We celebrated in our pyjamas - starting as we mean to go on!
How lush is this zerowaste offering in @cleartosea_ in Bury St Edmunds? . Checking out new zerowaste shops is one of my favourite things to do on the road, and it also keeps us in car snacks! . We picked up some unpackaged carob raisins, chocolate covered oranges, nuts, and raspberry white chocolate (@chrshrvy, not me - I don't believe in white chocolate). I'm a dark chocolate addict. . I also got new @savesomegreen bamboo toothbrushes, some "crunchy munchy" granola, and a @biork_zero_plastic crystal deodorant I'd been wanting to try! I'll actually be sharing my thoughts on this anti-perspirent alternative in the coming weeks, so check back if, like me, you're struggling to find a good plastic-free pit-stick. 😋 . This one is definitely a shop worth checking out if you're in the Bury area! . . . #zerowastehome #zerowastecollective #zerowasteofficial #awastefreeworld #wastefreeplanet #sustainable #sustainableinfluencers #ecofriendly #reuse #naturalliving #zeroewasteshop #refusesingleuse #plasticfree #plasticfreehome #lowimpactmovement #circulareconomy #zerowastejourney #packagefree #zerowastegrocery #zerowasteshopping #noexcuseforsingleuse #plasticfreesnacks #plasticfreeparent #saveourseas #saynotosingleuse #thereisnoplanetb #burystedmunds #zerowastefamily #ecowarrior
Teal, seafoam, mint, aquamarine, turquoise. I love all the bluey-greens! 🌍 . It's probably the only real "colour" that I wear (my capsule is pretty much grey, white, navy, teal), so I'm always happy when my favourite ethical brands have lots of teal in stock! . This organic cotton cardigan from @seasaltcornwall has been accomodating my changing maternity shape all spring and summer (pretty much EVERY day), and it's showing NO signs of wear. Not even under the arms, which is sort of ... Magical. 🔮 . It's also pretty cool that last year Seasalt replaced 17.5 tonnes of plastic mail bags, 7500 metres of bubble wrap and 103 miles of plastic packing tape with paper mail bags, craft wrap and craft tape. They've also removed the individual plastic garment bags from our all online orders, and have installed water fountains at some of their newer shops. . Sustainable AND teal - what more could a girl want? . . #teal #saveourseas #buyoncebuywell #mindfulfashion #shopwithpurpose #sustainablymade #consciousstyle #slowfashionstyle #ethicalluxury #positivefashion #wearthechange #fashionforgood #zerowastefashion #sustainableinfluencer #noexcuseforsingleuse #zerowastejourney #ecofriendlyfashion #consciousconsumer #organiccotton #seasaltcornwall #ecowarrior #qualitynotquantity #capsulewardrobe #summercapsulewardrobe #maternitycapsulewardrobe #Awastefreeworld #zerowasteofficial #saynotosingleuse #wearingseasalt
Our bathroom was the first room in the house to go plastic-free, and it began with switching to simple bars of soap. 🛀 . I made my own for a while (I did a soap and cheese making course on a farm just outside of Prague a few years back 🤷‍♀️) and one Christmas, EVERYONE in my family was gifted bars of slightly "underdone" creamsicle scented soap. 🙄 No one was impressed, and I've since decided to leave soapmaking to the pros. . Peppermint is my favourite scent (and the only one that doesn't trigger my allergies 🤧) so I always have a stash of minty soaps on hand. At the moment, I'm using these lovely bars by @friendlysoapltd which lather well and smell beautiful (plus they come in colourful recycled and recyclablecardboard boxes)! 🤩 . They are "zero-impact" and do their best to make a fantastically ethical product, though I'm not mad for the fact that they promote being "palm oil free". As many of you guys know, I've done a lot of work this year in conjunction with Chester Zoo singing and writing about the importance of supporting sustainable palm oil instead of boycotting palm outright (if you're not sure what I'm talking about, google "Palm Oil Conga")! 🙈 . Do you have a favourite scent? Or do you prefer to mix it up? Have you made the switch to solid bars yet? If not, what's stopping you? . . . #zerowastehome #zerowastecollective #zerowasteofficial #awastefreeworld #wastefreeplanet #ecowarrior #sustainableinfluencers #ecofriendly #reuse #naturalliving #naturalparenting #refusesingleuse #plasticfree #plasticfreehome #lowimpactmovement #circulareconomy #zerowastejourney #packagefree #zerowastebathroom #zerowasteshopping #noexcuseforsingleuse #barsoap #solidsoap #plasticfreeparent #saveourseas #saynotosingleuse #thereisnoplanetb
Did you know that if plastic production isn't curbed, plastic pollution will outweigh fish pound for pound by 2050? 🦈 In 10 days I'll be launching a crowdfunding campaign to support the publication of my new children's book, Blueberry Bay, which I hope will, in some small way, raise awareness about the serious problem facing our oceans. 🐠 I think we all have a role to play when it comes to tackling plastic pollution, whether it's as a scientist, a politician, a producer, or a conscious consumer. 🐡 As a writer and performer, I want to put my skills to use by educating and inspiring children to make better decisions for a more sustainable future. This is what I hope to achieve with Blueberry Bay. 🦀 If you'd like to support me in my campaign to publish and share Blueberry Bay, then please get in touch, or visit my website (link in bio). 🌊 . #BlueberryBay #newbook #saveourocean #kidlit #kidlitart #kidsbook #childrensillustration #beatplasticpollution #picturebook #picturebookart #plasticfree #saveourseas #sciart #environmentart #environmentbook #saveourshores #storybook #childrensbook #oceanguardian #marineconservation #oceanconservation #childrenswritersguild #plasticfreeseas #zerowastekids #ecofamily #ecoparenting #theresnoplanetb #ecokids #plasticfreeparenting #ecowarrior
