  • Check where the food you are buying comes from – and keep as local as possible!
  • Walk or cycle to the shops where possible.
  • Don’t be tempted by the offers – only buy if you really want or need the produce.
  • If your local shop doesn’t stock what you want, ask if it is possible for them to do so.
  • Join a Box scheme or buy organic if possible.
  • Buy local vegetables that are in-season.
  • Buy local honey and local specialities.
  • Use tap water rather than buy bottled water.
  • Use concentrated bottled drinks rather than canned drinks.
  • Grow some vegetables your self.
  • If you have no garden get an allotment.
  • Avoid factory-farmed meat.
  • Buy free-range meat and even better, free range organic!
  • Reduce the amount of red meat eaten.
  • If you eat tuna make sure it is dolphin friendly.
  • Avoid overfished species of fish – eg Atlantic swordfish, Atlantic salmon, North sea cod.
  • Buy a sprouter and produce your own seed sprouts in several days.
  • Avoid take-away food or ask if you can bring your own re-usable containers.

Charging Points

juice

Having spoken to many of the exhibitors at the Green Transport Rally, there were many requests for electric vehicle charging points in Seaton.  We had a large number of electric cycles present at the event, but for electric cars or bicycles to become a practical option, it is essential that charging points are made available.  It is an excellent opportunity for Devon to lead the way in sustainable personal transport options, and would assist the area to become an eco-tourism destination.

If you would like to help us to try and prove a need for an electric charging point, please contact us, and we will tell you how you can help further this vital change. Email: info@sustainableseaton.com
