You put some bread in the toaster, watch the news on TV and have breakfast; coffee made with water boiled in the kettle and cereal with milk kept cool in the fridge. You scribble a note on a pad of yellow post-its and throw out the foil trays from last night's take-away, before jumping in the car and setting off for work.
You have already done nothing out of the ordinary, but already your lifestyle choices have had an impact on people and the environment right across the world. How can we live more responsibly> In this A-Z of lifestyles issues, the Ruth Valerio highlights the main threats to people and our planet, God's beloved creation. By making small changes to our everyday behaviour, we can learn the secret of a life that is both fair and simple."
My lifestyle changes: From D is for driving, I learnt that driving at 50mph uses 25% less fuel than driving at 70mph. I am trying to slow down!
