No Impact Week

Yesterday was our first day of our No Impact Experiment - here's some info from YES magazine, which explains all about it:   http://www.yesmagazine.org/planet/a-new-years-resolution-for-the-whole-planet?utm_source=fb&utm_medium=socmed&utm_content=Staff_NewYearsResolutionForPlanet&utm_campaign=110101_NoImpact We've thought about consumption, things we can cut down on or cut out altogether - we're pretty sorted with that one & don't really do a great deal of purchasing, none of us are into fashion & we wear our clothes until they can no longer be repaired, most of which are from charity shops. Our furniture is mainly second hand or really old & we're not into gadgets (although we do have computers). We have a very old television that we can watch DVDs on, but we don't have a TV signal. We have an old radio from the early 1960s, which allows us to listen to Radio Cornwall or Irish & French stations! We also have an old record player
