"Quick and enjoyable read, non-preachy and filled to the brim with great, realistic, everyday eco-conscious tips and tricks that are easily implemented into a normal lifestyle. Great recipes too, can't wait to make my son homemade toxin-free play dough!" - Tina H - Amazon Reviewer

If you're reading this book you're probably keen on saving our beautiful planet from waste, toxins and plastic pollution. You might have also experienced what I call "zero waste overwhelm" where you want to do everything to fight climate change, heal the planet and tell everyone about it to get them involved too! That's brilliant, but we all have our limits, so let's not push ourselves to do too much at once. I like to push myself just over my limit and then wait there for a little while before trying to get to the next level because if we burn out we can't help anyone.

The top reason I've heard from people as to why they don't commit to a green lifestyle or try zero waste is that they can't be perfect like the social media influencers who fit all of their year's rubbish into one jar. We don't have to be that extreme! In fact, how do we know they actually did fit all of their year's rubbish into one jar?! There's a thought...

So, I created this book as a realistic guide to zero waste, maybe that's not the best name, maybe it should be called conscious living, or less waste because, in all honesty, it's impossible to have ZERO waste.

My hope is that you will use this guide to ease your way into zero waste/less waste/green lifestyle, or you can use it to add to your current sustainable living knowledge. Don't forget to share it with family and friends, so that we can all do our bit to help the planet and also help our families and ourselves. Because we're all in this together!
