Mrs Green
I am a long time supporter of the Green and Sustainable lifestyle. After being caught in the Boscastle floods in 2004, our family begun a journey to respect and promote the importance of Earth's fragile ecosystem, that focussed on reducing waste. Inspired by the beauty and resourcefulness of this wonderful planet, I have published numerous magazine articles on green issues and the author of four books.

Weekly weigh in 48
You might remember that last week’s weigh in, was in fact seven weeks worth of rubbish. I was a little unsure about the results, as we only created just over 20 grams per week. My feeling was that some things had found their way into the fire. Not able to contain my possible guilt a […]
