Want a more

eco-friendly life

but not sure

where to start?

The Red team

share the simple

ways they are

making a

difference to

their daily

routines...

We have replaced clingfilm with

reusable beeswax wraps for everything

from the Cheddar in our fridge to the

sandwiches in my daughters’ lunchboxes

(beeswaxwraps.co.uk).

We’ve also bought glass KeepCups (drinks

taste better in them than in plastic) and

carry them at all times, instead of buying

coffee in disposable cups (keepcup.com).

Finally, for our next family car, we want

something more sustainable. After having

driven a DS 7 Crossback for many months,

and appreciating the comfort, size and

technology (automated parking, adaptive

cruise control), the latest DS 7 E-Tense,

which shares all these features, plus has a

plug-in hybrid engine, allowing us to drive

electric in the city but convert to petrol for

longer journeys, seems the perfect next

step for us (dsautomobiles.co.uk).

The household recycling has become

one of the kids’ pocket money jobs – it’s

a simple but effective way to manage our

waste and educate them at the same time.

are
