Kate Hall: Sustainable choices you may be making without realising

To many people, “being sustainable” seems like an active choice and sacrifice that someone has to make – but there are plenty of things they may already be doing without realising they’re sustainable. Kate Hall joined Jack Tame to run through the list. Cooking at home instead of eating out Buying seasonal or local produce (international imports often cost more) Wearing clothes longer / repairing instead of replacing Using leftovers and stretching meals Buying second-hand furniture Travelling domestically instead of internationally (or not at all) Avoiding turning the AC/heat pump on & opting for doors open/more blankets instead Thinking about something for a long time before purchasing Choosing experiences as gifts over buying more stuff Taking the bus, walking, or biking instead of driving Washing clothes less often (only when they actually need it) Doing fuller loads instead of small, frequent washes Bringing a drink bottle everywhere you go instead of buying drinks out Making coffee at home instead of buying daily coffees (often in disposable cups) LISTEN ABOVE
