Blog mini-series: Eco pets!

Anyone who knows us, will know that our animals are very much the centre of our lives. We have also started to look into having more eco-friendly pet products. In fact, we have become passionate about choosing eco-friendly pets products whenever possible. And if you don’t know that already, I’m sure you’ll get the message throughout the next few posts. We love to write and share our experiences of the eco products that we use, so we think its only right to share the things that we use to make our pet ownership eco too! Choosing eco-friendly pets options is now part of our daily routine. From the food that we use, to the places we shop at, we try to be as environmentally conscious as possible. Although our cats and dogs are blissfully unaware of the climate crisis, I’m sure their future ancestors will thank us! By making decisions with eco-friendly pets in mind, we do our part for the planet. Throughout the coming posts, you’ll get to know our animals, and the products that we’ve loved using to help reduce our carbon paw-print! Moreover, eco-friendly pets topics will be discussed in future articles. Feel free to follow our dogs on Instagram (or Purl / Bobbin on Facebook) if you want to keep up with their antics! The cats (Albie & Bluebell) sometimes make a guest appearance too! https://zerowastellama.com/terracycle-the-first-european-pet-food-recycling-programme/ https://zerowastellama.com/my-carbon-footprint/

Reducing food waste is one of the easiest and most effective ways to live more sustainably — and it’s something I actively work on every day. Not only does wasting less food help the planet, it also saves money, time, and unnecessary stress.

Food waste contributes significantly to climate change, with vast amounts of edible food ending up in landfill every year. When food rots in landfill, it releases methane — a greenhouse gas far more potent than CO₂. The good news? Small, realistic changes at home can make a huge difference in reducing food waste.

Here are the most effective habits I’ve adopted to reduce the amount of food I waste — without making life harder. By focusing on reducing waste, you can easily make a positive impact at home as well.

Product Review: Jungle Culture Safety Razor

Like many women, I fully support embracing body hair. However, I personally dislike how it feels under my clothing. Because I have PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome), excessive hair growth is something I deal with daily. This means shaving my legs and arms very frequently.

When you have to shave this often, finding a razor that actually works is essential.

Jungle Culture may have the answer…
