Looking For Tips on How Your Family Can Be More Environmentally Friendly? Read Our Family Guide to Going Green!
As a family, you might be looking for ways in which you can have a more sustainable lifestyle and be more environmentally friendly. The most important thing to remember about green living is that taking a zero-waste, sustainable and environmentally friendly approach isn’t about one or two people overhauling everything in their lives, it’s about everyone in the family being greener by taking little steps that can make a huge difference.
If you’re looking for a guide to going green, we have outlined below our sustainable lifestyle and green living tips for families, which include green tips for the home and small ways in which you can make a big difference, and get your children involved too.
- Walk To School Instead of Taking The Car
Think about the car journeys you make that could be done on foot. Can you walk, cycle or scoot to and from school? It’ll save the school run parking stress and is also a good way for your children to burn off some of that excess energy that’s been stored up from sitting around all day.
- Eat Less Meat and Dairy
If you’re reluctant to completely cut out meat, why not try something as simple as meat-free Monday? If you and your family are taking part in Veganuary or thinking about trying a vegan diet this is the perfect way to start.
- Go vegan with your vitamins and supplements
Sometimes it’s as easy as switching your vitamin or supplement to a vegan alternative. Wellwoman Vegan RRP €16.99 is specially developed to safeguard the nutritional needs of women following a vegetarian or vegan diet. Officially approved by both the Vegan Society and the Vegetarian Society. Containing 23 Nutrients including B6 which contributes to the regulation of hormonal activity. Plus iron which contributes to normal formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin an important consideration during the monthly cycle.
There is also an option for the small people in our life to choose a vegan alternative. Wellkid Marvel gummies RRP €17.99 are packed with nutritional support for young heroes aged 7-14 years everywhere.
- Invest in Re-Usable Water Bottles
All children have beakers and water bottles, so follow their example and invest in your own reusable water bottle instead of buying single-use plastic ones when you’re out and about.
2.5 billion non-recyclable coffee cups are thrown away every year, so to avoid this waste buy an insulated keep cup for those freezing mornings and what’s better? most cafes will refill them for cheaper.
