Future Living Skills - The Sustainable Living Education Trust
A recent RNZ article made me aware of The Sustainable Living Education Trust and its Future Living Skills program.
The Sustainable Living Education Trust helps us with practical and fun ways to reduce our environmental impact, such as growing food at home. It's about simpler, less-wasteful lifestyles here in New Zealand.
It offers us future living skills for a healthier, lower-waste yet good quality lifestyle. It's a new approach to making smart, affordable and lower-carbon consumer choices.
Twelve local councils are current members of the Trust and receiving support from the Ministry for the Environment's Waste Minimisation Fund. Unfortunately our district council doesn't participate, but the Trust's eight learning guides are available online for everyone.
I also recommend taking their quiz. There are quite a few eye-opening and jaw-dropping facts hidden in there.
Poll: Is it rude to talk on the phone on a bus?
Buses can be a relaxing way to get home if you have a seat and enough space. However, it can be off-putting when someone is taking a phone call next to you.
Do you think it's inconsiderate for people to have lengthy phone calls on a bus? Vote in the poll, and add your comments below.
