We’re all responsible for learning to live more sustainably. Because the choices we make about what we eat, what we wear, how we travel and how we shop have consequences for the environment.

The actions of one person might seem unimportant. But multiply them by many millions and they add up to a massive global impact, which is driving climate change.

In this section we take a closer look at some simple ways to reduce your carbon footprint. There’s nothing revolutionary. It’s just good advice based on scientific evidence.
