Make our MoveWant to do something good for the environment? Not sure where to start? Climate change is a huge issue, so it's easy to get overwhelmed, or confused about what we can actually do to help. You're not alone. In fact 2 in 3 of us are concerned with the impact of climate change, yet only 1 in 5 know what action we can take to reduce our impact. Over a third of us would like clearer guidance on what would make a difference and where to start. So we've done the hard work for you. We’ve pulled together 12 clear actions you can take that'll have a positive impact. Luckily, decisions that are good for the environment are usually good for us too. They can save us money, keep us healthy, and be a great way to connect with others. Whether you just want to try some simple sustainable swaps, or are looking to extend your actions to your workplace and community, we've got ideas to help. Let's make our move, together. Make our Move Take Action Take the Quiz Move together Cut the Jargon & Carbon How to eat seasonally in the UK - a month by month guide What is eating seasonally? Eating seasonally means eating foods that are naturally in harvest at that time of year, and eating locally means eating food that can be grown in the UK. Ever thought about where your food comes from? We’ve gotten used to having any food we want at any time of the year. But out-of-season produce means flying it in from overseas, or using intensive farming methods such as pesticides and greenhouses to force them to grow year-round. Both of these use lots of resources and come with huge carbon footprints. Eating local and seasonal food is not only more tasty and healthy (the nutrients and flavours have fully developed so they're sweet, crunchy and the best they can be) but better for the environment. We've often found it more affordable, as it hasn't had to be imported, and is more readily available during that month. So what should you be looking for? We've got a month by month guide for British seasonal fruit and veg. Choose a month below to jump straight to the list!
