Easy Green Things To Do This Month...May 2013...


Here are some easy green things you can do this month...

I think this one is really important, the EU is proposing a law that will mean all seed varieties have to be registered and regulated in order to be saved, swapped or sold.  This is being pushed by multinational seed companies and if it goes through will damage biodiversity.  There's a petition to sign and you can find more info, including EU commissioners to email here.

Write to your MP to ask them to support a ban on free plastic bags in England.

The Campaign to Protect Rural England (CPRE) are campaigning to prevent a new planning law resulting in more building on green field land - write to your MP here.

The Fairtrade Foundation are asking for a better deal for small farmers, join their mini, virtual, march here.

Check out Be the Start campaign, promoting a sustainable future and inspired by Prince Charles!  There's a daily topic for each day of May here and more info here.

If you have any ideas to be added to this months list, then let me know in the comments section and if I like it, I'll add it!  And feel free to share any of this info (or the whole post) wherever and with whoever you like!
