Feel the Eco Love
Eco Love runs from 18 March to 28 April this year, celebrating all things good for the planet! Setting you up for Earth Week on 21 April, we’re warming up so the planet doesn’t have to.
We’ve split our lifestyle changes into 3 categories: diet, home, and out-of-doors. So, whether you’re making eco changes at the dinner table, or switching up how you interact with the world outside your house, we’ve got something for you!
And, even better, we’ve got prizes on the line. Complete any 10 missions during our Eco Love campaign period (that’s 18 March to 28 April) and we’ll plant 10 extra trees in your company forest! How’s that for planet-saving?
Check out some of our fab pledges below.
Diet picks for you & the planet
🥛 Use A Dairy Alternative: Swap the dairy for oat, soya, almond, coconut, rice, or something else equally as exciting!
🥗 Veggie Power Month: Eat vegetarian for a whole month. Don’t forget to track in-app!
🌱 Plant Power Month: Eat plant-based for a whole month. Think you can do it?
🥕 Grow Your Own Veg: Live off the land by farming your own veggies. Carrots, potatoes, kale, onions – what’s your favourite?
🥗 Veggie Dinners: A little easier than Veggie Power Month, swap 3 meaty meals for veggie meals during the week!
🐟 Choose Sustainably Caught Seafood: Commercial fishing has a huge impact on our oceans. Make sure your seafood is sustainably caught.
🥔 Choose Seasonal Produce: Buying local, seasonal veg cuts down on outsourcing, leading to a happier planet.
🥑 Choose Organic: Not only is it good for you, organic food has far less impact on the ecosystem than processed food!
Home picks for you & the planet
🧺 Hang Out: Instead of tumble drying, hang out your clean washing and let Mother Nature do the job!
