Home, Travel and Food make up more than 60% of the average UK resident's carbon footprint. Here are some ideas to help change that.

Help the Heroes make a difference

We think our Team Green Britain Heroes are shining example of low-carbon living and are already having an impact on sustainability across the UK. Follow their blog posts, see their personal videos and find out how to get involved.

What you can do

We want you on our team. We believe that by trying new ways of doing things you’ll not only help to cut the UK’s CO2 emissions but also have fun. Here's where you can find sustainable new approaches to home, food and travel (the three areas that account for more than 60% of your carbon footprint).


Join the Low Carbon Rush Hour

Changing our commuting habits could make a major contribution to cutting the UK's carbon footprint and with the average commuter driving only 12 miles a day there are plenty of healthy, low-carbon alternatives available. Swapping your car journey to work for a cycle ride, a jog or a walk isn't just good for the planet - it can help you to stay active, sleep better and be mentally alert and ready for the day.

Cut carbon at home and in your community
