Furious!! Having just watched the debate between the two potential candidates looking to become our next Prime Minister, I was hoping to hear something that would give me some reassurance that our future Government would take the climate emergency seriously. What I got was the exact opposite. The carefully scripted question about climate change was …
“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.” Margaret Mead Today I had the absolute pleasure of being part of the opening of the WEAct Hub in Woking town centre. After months of hard work by a small group of volunteers, …
The most important thing that we can do is to care. As for something to be sustainable it needs to be looked after. So we need to care about how our food is produced, how our products are made, how our waste is disposed of and of our impact on the natural world, as otherwise …
