Default Help!

As the title says, I'm in need of all your help to change my lifestyle to become more green.

At the moment, I do very little to help the enviroment, this includes recycling,etc! (dont hate me too much)

I have a young family and I am determined to change my families lifestyle so that they dont fall into my bad habits, so it's time for me to change.

If anyone can give me advice on how to be more green, then I will be eternally greatful.

how about starting to grow some fruit and vegies at home? Strawberries make great snacks for young children and cress is supposed to be a quick way to show kids what can happen if they sow and care for seeds.

It could certainly be a cheep hobby to keep them occupied for a while if they find it interesting, especially if you have a garden.

If the plant growing goes well you might want to have a go at making some compost or a wormery to reduce the costs associated with the plant growing, but I think the best way is to take things one step at a time.
