For me:
1. Consume less. Doesn't cost money, in fact saves it.
2. Shop local. Buy British keeps jobs in the UK and cuts down on the amount of transportation required to get it to me. This also helps with the local economy.
3. Shop ethical. How many orang-utans need to be killed to provide palm oil so that soap foams in a way that marketers have convinced people is required?
4. Eat unprocessed foods. Less processing = less added chemicals.
5. Eat seasonal. Strawberries in December? Nope. They are in season in June/July. That's when to eat them. Eating seasonal helps with a balanced diet too.


BTW, I don't live by these as hard and fast rules, I am hypocritical at times, but I make an effort to do the above.


I'm not paying any research company, big corporation or government to do them, but I am doing them, not relying on someone else or governments to do it.

Agree with all that. The enemy now makes separate trips to local butchers and greengrocers.

I think The Matrix got it right; we're a virus that needs to be controlled.
