Reducing water consumption:
Getting more barrels to collect water from guttering. Better for plants and for us, now we're on a water meter.

Look into using this water/grey water for flushing loos too.
Heard it can be done but don't know how. Build a water tower that'll reach the first floor?:p

Growing more fruit too.

Well apart from leaving the planet which is a bit drastic. I am gonna fly less (avoid nuddy scanners) Eat less (not get fat) and move more (walk to work) anything extra I'll need a halo for :0)

We have had a wood burner installed, thus cutting gas by around 30% and electricity by 20%

I'm going to cut a dodgy branch off a tree and chop it up for firewood for next winter.

In 2010, I plan to cut my emissions by:

• having no-spend days
• walking instead of using the car
• growing salads and sprouts on my window sill
• buying clothes and furniture from charity shops
• reusing and recycling everything
• not wasting food
• making my own gifts
• having holidays at home
• making my own bread

and finally, tuning into my spiritual, rather than my materialistic side!

I was going to say.....I shall walk to work every day, but...my office is in my garden.

However, I shall purchase shopping on the days I have meetings out of town. Claim on petrol expenses and shop somewhere new..win, win!

I'm turning down the heating by 2 degrees - no arguments - extra layers required!
