In order to kick off the year off with a positive vibe Here are five emerging developments that illustrate how people are making everyday actions to lead greener and more sustainable lifestyles. Sustainability, according to the evidence begins with the home. Small decisions that made every single day add up to an enormous impact. Therefore, to help you be more environmentally conscious in the new Year, we've compiled several of the often overlooked great news stories of 2023. Enjoy your re(new)able year!

Explore sustainable fashion.

It's all about getting smitten by old-fashioned. About half of us purchase second-hand items. From old clothes to used furniture and phones, the second hand market is no longer a joke. If some of our old purchase fails the majority of us will repair them, not to repurchase the items.

Le plastique no longer fantastique.
The majority of us look up products to verify that they're manufactured and packed using recycled, recyclable or biodegradable substances. Our number of people who avoid packaging food items in plastic that is single-use was up to 71% in the last year. Where we go, the food industry adhere to.

Be a native gardener.

The world is becoming aware that exotic plants aren't the best way to improve our backyards. The last year witnessed a rising (literally!) amount of people opting for indigenous, drought-resistant plants instead of those that are thirsty in tropical climates. Native plants also mean that we're using less pesticides as our gardens become a well-known habitat for animals.

Green getaways.

 
Eco-tourism is now to the forefront. More than 75% of us are now looking to live somewhere which is committed to the environment. Consider a penthouse instead of a treehouse. It is possible that we aren't all more committed than the Somerset family members who decided to spend Christmas in Australia the year before ...overland. However, by selecting hotels with bikes for getting around, skip the regular wash and utilize keys to conserve energy by making our the journey more sustainable.

People are power.

Imagine if we all were to use green energy only? We're lucky that 23% are making the change. Being the UK's sole company that offers 100 green gas that is a hundred percent renewable electricity, here at 100Green, we assist our customers to conserve the equivalent of 3.3 tons of carbon dioxide* when they switch to our electricity. There are no gimmicks. Also, there aren't any offsets. This is a green option which doesn't need to be patient to reap the advantages.
