Must concede that there are environmental concerns about purchasing from Amazon (vs. your local grocer or farm shop). However, should you find yourself without an alternative online destination, thought I'd share that replacing/bookmarking the URL with smile.amazon.co.uk allows for 0.5% of your purchases to be donated to a charity of your choosing, at no extra cost to you.
We chose Cool Earth Action because of the rainforest restorative focus but other "green" options exist. Like us, you may be surprised how much it adds up to after a few months.
