I\u2019m really excited to be guest blogging here at the Ethical Superstore over the coming weeks and sharing my passion of all things ethical and green!<\/p>\n<p>Whilst I\u2019ve always been passionate about sustainability, my path really changed two years ago when I watched the documentary <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bagitmovie.com\/\" title=\"Bag It!\" target=\"_blank\">Bag It!<\/a>, about an average American who takes a closer look at our love affair with plastic. It made me realise that environmentalism and sustainability isn\u2019t just about big picture stuff like \u201csaving the rainforests\u201d. Knowing about the issues isn\u2019t enough; we also need to act. It is as much about the little things we do and the choices we make every day. Collectively our choices have massive consequences, and if we make them wisely, we have the power to bring about real, positive change. <\/p>\n<p>The great thing is there are so many ways that we can make a difference. Rethinking waste is one of the easiest. Waste is something we all have in common. We buy stuff, we use it and then we throw it away. Rubbish \u2013 literally! I had always been a responsible recycler\u2026until I realised that recycling wasn\u2019t the green solution I\u2019d always thought. It\u2019s not about recycling more\u2026 it\u2019s about wasting less.<br \/>\n\u201cReduce, re-use, recycle\u201d is a mantra we\u2019ve all become familiar with: the 3 \u201cR\u201ds. Well, there are now two new kids on the block.<br \/>\nMeet the five \u201cR\u201ds: <em>REFUSE, reduce, re-use, REPAIR, recycle<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Refuse:<\/strong> The first question to ask is do I need this at all? Think single-use plastic bags, plastic straws, disposable cutlery, takeaway coffee cups and plastic water bottles. This isn\u2019t about using less but making a stand and refusing altogether. Say no, particularly to disposables, and bring you own. Can you switch to reusable bags, request no straw or carry your own <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ethicalsuperstore.com\/products\/green-books\/vintage-ivy-bamboo-fibre-coffee-cup\/\" title=\"Bamboo coffee cup\">reusable coffee cup<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ethicalsuperstore.com\/products\/earthlust\/\" title=\"Reusable Water Bottle\">water bottle<\/a>? <\/p>\n<p><strong>Reduce:<\/strong> This is about consuming only what we need, and taking only what we\u2019ll use. It sounds straightforward, but throw in clever marketing and multibuy offers and we often end up buying more than we really intended to! Why else would UK households throw away 4.2 million tonnes of food and drink every year? That\u2019s 6 meals every week for an average household! (Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wrap.org.uk\/content\/household-food-and-drink-waste-uk-2012\" title=\"WRAP UK\" target=\"_blank\">WRAP UK<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Re-use:<\/strong> Heard the saying, \u201cif it ain\u2019t broke, don\u2019t fix it?\u201d Well, if it ain\u2019t broke, don\u2019t buy a new one either! <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/\" title=\"Pinterest\" target=\"_blank\">Pinterest<\/a> is a great source of inspiration for finding new uses for old objects. If you can\u2019t reuse something, try to donate it to someone else who can. Consider too: when purchasing something new, choose things that are made well and built to last. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Repair:<\/strong> \u2026And if it is broke, then do fix it! This isn\u2019t always easy: maybe it requires skills and knowledge we don\u2019t have, and some companies prefer us to buy new products and make it hard (or expensive) to get replacement parts. <a href=\"http:\/\/repaircafe.org\/\" title=\"Repair Cafe\" target=\"_blank\">Repair Caf\u00e9<\/a> run get-togethers where you can learn how to fix broken items, or you can look online at sites like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.howtofixyourstuff.com\" title=\"How to fix your Stuff\" target=\"_blank\">www.howtofixyourstuff.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recycle:<\/strong> Our goal shouldn\u2019t be to recycle as much as possible, it should actually be to recycle as little as possible. It goes without saying that recycling is better than landfill, but it\u2019s still an energy-intensive and time-consuming process. Don\u2019t get me wrong; we should definitely still be recycling! However, there are so many points of intervention before we even get to recycling, it really should be seen as a last resort.<br \/>\nWe all have different circumstances, beliefs and values, but whatever our situations, there is always something we can do. Everyone can make a difference.<\/p>\n<p>No one can do everything.<br \/>\n<strong>But everyone can do something.<\/strong><br \/>\nOver the coming weeks I\u2019m going to be writing more about waste, particularly our love affair with plastic, as well as some how to\u2019s and tips for being a conscious consumer. I also want to hear your ideas! Are there any topics you\u2019d like to know more about? Any issues you struggle with? Any aspects of ethical consumerism you find confusing? Just let me know in the comments; I can\u2019t wait to hear from you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fact of the Week: In 2012 UK Supermarkets gave out 8.1 billion plastic bags, with the average shopper using 11 a month.
