Rethink Refuse Reduce Reuse Share Repair Compost Recycle Be the Change
Welcome to my blog about zero waste and sustainable living.
For the past decade I have been sharing how I reduce my plastic, rethink waste and buy less stuff. Along the way I've learned new skills, saved money, become a community activist and discovered a happiness living with less.
I am always learning and love sharing it all here, via my newsletter, and on my social media. You'll find fun accessible resources our household uses to create a sustainable and meaningful life. There are down to earth stories, practical ideas, recipes, DIYs on the topics of reducing waste, swapping out plastic, easy eco actions and everyday activism for collective change. I'm here to help you reduce, reuse and reconnect - without judgment.
Want all of the helpful tips and tricks at home? Get my best selling books Waste Not: Make a big difference by throwing away less and Waste Not Everyday at bookstores, online, as an e-book and your library.
I run workshops and keynote talks on a range of sustainability topics suited to groups of all ages and locations. You can find out more via my events page.
It's a joy to have you here,
Erin
