Welcome to Green Thing v2

Welcome to Green Thing v2 featuring seven things you can do to lead a greener life, stories from the community and a brand new site.


We wanted to make the Green Thing actions more joined up and even simpler to remember.


How you get around, the energy you use, the stuff you buy, the things you eat, what you throw away and what you don't - all covered by these seven green things:

1. You get from A to B without any C when you Walk The Walk
2. It’s delicious but it causes more CO2 than cars so go Easy On The Meat
3. Resist the urge to buy the latest and Stick With What You Got
4. Turn down the central heating and turn up the Human Heat
5. The art of wasting nothing and using up everything: All-Consuming
6. Instead of jetting your way around the world, Stay Grounded
7. Don’t leave it on or even put it on, Plug Out

There's a brand new Green Thing creature to tell you about them too, a three-eyred two-mouthed many-limbed fellow with a Lincolnshire accent and a philosophical streak.

If you want to know how to get the best out of the new site, or find out what's changed from the old one, try our help section.

Finally, we'd love to know what you think of Green Thing v2 and get any ideas you have for improving it (and please
mail us here
with info on bugs in the first release).
