Why The Big Green Idea?

As we make our way into the 21st century we face an ever-increasing series of environmental and humanitarian challenges as well as an alarming increase in the rate of extinction and reduction in biodiversity. It has never been more important for governments, businesses, organisations and individuals to take action. If we are to avoid runaway climate change and irreversible damage to our ecosystems we need to find and implement solutions now.

Once you know how, you can actually save money at the same time as conserving the earth's resources by living a more sustainable lifestyle. Not only can you save money but you can become healthier and have a lot of fun too.
 
This all sounds great, but where do you begin?

There are a lot of people and organisations out there offering very valuable advice on all things ‘green’. There are some great courses, books and magazines, as well as people demonstrating wind turbines/solar panels and big sexy green gadgets, and there are also loads of wonderful people campaigning and lobbying government and local authorities – but there seems to be a gap.

It seems that there are very few people offering help directly to individuals who would like to make changes but don't know where to begin because they can't afford to tap into, or have not been reached by, the current 'green' media machine. This problem seems to be especially relevant for those on low incomes.
