    I joined the challenge through my new energy provider Pure Planet. It has been a good experience: I pushed some activities a bit more through the challenges, and tried some new ones. I managed to tackle challenges in six categories, with my three water challenges coming about through the serendipitous arrival at the beginning of the challenge...

    Pleased with how this Eco Challenge has gone. I haven't had to go particularly out of my way to make improvements, but the impact has really built up after only a month!

    With regard to a potential shortage of water, living in Scotland I would have thought that would not be an issue. However, there was some temporary disruption to water supplies in parts of Glasgow earlier this year, due to fire hydrant vandalism; and some areas in the countryside were also affected by water shortages--possibly due to the lack...

    This has been a fun way of learning to think and of being reminded of what is important. Thanks to my Pure Planet colleagues for the encouragement and for fielding a great team.

    I spent some time talking to a parish councillor about a new housing development near to where I live; and about what was being down to protect the natural environment, water sources, and drainage - as well as for people, and their safety. The housing is near to a fast road and there is a local debate about where and how to locate a road...

    The results (using the Scotland Home Energy Check) were a bit different to what I was expecting: initial estimated electricity costs considerably higher than my actual bills, and results (after filling in all of the detail) that showed not as much saving as I expected--£84 (9.4%) off of an annual bill of £895, after a suggested expenditure of...

    I have found a local recycling centre in Frome. Who although does specify household waste - I have found that I can drop all my plastic from food at this depot to be recycled.

    A nice walk into the city centre for a meeting, and a meander on the way home.

    Spent weekend with an expert on LED lighting and all my lightbulbs are now sorted! do need a new light switch!
  • October 21 at 10:05 AM
    A nice walk this afternoon with a small group (none of whom I knew) around Glasgow Green and through the People's Palace. I got to share some of my knowlege of things local. One thing I discovered this weekend is that the 'Go for a Daily Walk' challenge doesn't have to be outdoors (there's a separate challenge in the Nature section for that!)....
