I’ve learned so much from Change by degrees I always bring a cotton bag for my loose fruit and veg. That way I minimize the amount of plastic that I use. Thank you girls x

I thought I was environmentally conscious but I realised I was doing loads of things wrong! And this is an area I want to get right - I appreciate all the advice and help to do the best I can. Sometimes you just need a nudge in the right direction.

When I learned about single use plastics I got rid of my Nespresso machine and started using the plunger for coffee again. I haven’t looked back.

You guys have really opened my eyes so much to the plastic choking our lives daily . You make me want to try harder to be more responsible about my use and reuse of plastic. Both at work and home everyday.
