How to start "Living Green"

I loved this quote; it sums up exactly how I feel about the world around us!

“Going Green”, “Eco Living”, “Sustainable living” – no matter what you call it; we should all be doing our bit, to look after this beautiful planet we live on. There are so many ways that we can try and live sustainably, although most of it takes some time and effort. We as a family, are certainly not doing all we can on the “eco” front. We do recycle, we try and use mostly local organic produce, we use non-electric source – to heat our home but I am looking into other areas that we can improve on.

I found this amazing local website, “Liveeco”, which gives you great ideas on how you can “live green”. Simple things like adjusting the settings on your printer to save ink, dressing warmer indoors – so that you do not need heaters to generate heat, using organic beauty products that are not harmful to the environment: are but a few things we can endeavour to incorporate in our everyday lives. Click on the link above and have a look at the great concepts the site proposes.

So what are you doing to help save our planet and “live green”? The Earth is after all our children’s heritage.

Culture

I found a very intriguing site whilst reading a magazine recently and it seemed too good not to pass on. The site is called Open Culture and offers a vast array of resources. There is something for everyone; for the person looking to further their education or enriching their cultural knowledge in a great many fields.

An excerpt from the site bio: “Open Culture editor Dan Colman scours the web for the best educational media. He finds the free courses and audio books you need, the language lessons & movies you want, and plenty of enlightenment in between.”

So if you are thinking of learning another language or doing a course in the Aesthetics & Philosophy of Art, this is definitely the site for you.

Amazing local blog

I was reading a copy of Marie Clare magazine in the dentists waiting room this afternoon and stumbled upon an article, on a most intriguing local blog Aficionado. Which in keeping with its title, meaning ‘somebody who is enthusiastic and knowledgeable about something’, is a wonderful platform for all the things I love. So if you, like me, are passionate about good food, clothing, wine and mostly anything that satisfies your sense of luxury, then this is the blog for you.

The content is most informative and interesting to read. Personally I love Jamie Who? a blog written by food writer Andy, which as you guessed is all about food, wine and all things gastronomical.

IFOR1, the independent fashion blog, is written by Justine Stafford, a freelance journalist, who uses her editorial experience to wax lyrical about all things beautiful. She is the founder of the Aficionado Network and one of its bloggers.

So, for all those lovers of fine things, have a look at this amazing blog.
