You can make a difference

One of the biggest things you can do is change your energy supplier. If you call your energy supplier and ask for a green tariff, all they do is click a button and it doesnt cost you a penny extra (with most of the major energy suppliers) or change to ecotricity for no extra cost either, and 100% of their profits go towards building new wind turbines, go to www.ecotricity.com.

Recycling is a fantastic way of reusing a product, for example recycling a glass bottle saves enough energy to power a television for 30 minutes.

Always try to buy seasonal. It saves it from being shipped in from a faraway country. If there was a jar of English honey and a jar of Australian honey which would you choose? Ideally the English honey as it does not have to be shipped, therefore producing less CO2.

If you are going anywhere that is accessable by train, try not to fly as taking the train produces 10 times less CO2 than flying.
If your going anywhere near, try to take public transport instead of a car.

If your looking to buy a new car, it is essential that you look at the emissions the vehicle produces and the fuel economy.
Try to buy a used car, as a new car takes a lot of resources and energy to make, plus with a used car you can hardly tell the difference.
Nowadays you can get hybrids all shapes and sizes, so if you see a hybrid that you think suits you the most why not buy it? Hybrids have an outstanding fuel economy and the mixture of electric and petrol engine give a low output of carbon emmisions. If you live in the city an electric car would suit you brilliantly, no congestion charge, free parking in some great venues and even zero emmisions. It will save you money by: refueling less, cheaper to run and you feel better about your transport and the way you're using it.
