Sometimes people don’t make environmentally conscious lifestyle changes because they don’t feel they make a difference.
However, 15,000 litres of water is needed to produce 1 kg of beef, compared to just 4,000 litres for 1 kg of lentils, beans or pulses.Your actions matter 💙

Single-use wet wipes containing plastic end up in rivers & seas, eventually breaking down into microplastics that can enter the food chain.
Companies must use alternatives, to stop contributing to the build up of plastics in the marine environment.

Research out today from @CCWvoice. With 41% of customers in water stressed areas feeling that water is plentiful where they live, and 20% saying that they didn't know, it demonstrates that more work is needed to raise awareness of the reality of water resources in the UK.

Young people are given labels by adults that we disagree with.
Register your interest for the Act for Change Together Festival if these labels make you angry!
