About this listen

Bloomsbury presents The Sustainable(ish) Living Guide written and read by Jen Gale.

Easy, do-able, down to earth ideas and suggestions for everyone to help save the planet.

If you want to save the planet, but your to-do list is already pretty long and remembering your re-usable coffee cup feels like a Herculean task, then this is the book for you. Covering every aspect of our lives from the stuff we buy and the food we eat to how we travel, work, and celebrate, this book provides stacks of practical, down to earth ideas to slot into your daily life, alongside a gentle kick up the butt to put your newfound knowledge into action.

Practical tips include unsubscribing from all the tempting emails that drop into your inbox with details of the newest clothing range or the latest sale, and keeping a mug next to your kettle to work out how much water you actually need to boil each time, as over-filling kettles costs British households £68 million on energy bills each year.

Find out how to fit "sustainable living" into your life, in a way that works for you. Change your impact without radically changing your life and figure out the small steps you can make that will add up to make a big difference (halo not included).

I listened to the sample and thought ‘oh great, more information on what I can do to be more sustainable’ and upon opening Jen says “if you’re already on your way to being sustainable this probably isn’t for you” and I suddenly thought ‘oh maaaaan’ BUT this book is brilliant. Jen is a fabulous story teller and you WANT TO LISTEN to every word ( I think it took me about 3 days to finish because I just did not want to stop!) if you’re wondering how to be more sustainable or have already found ways of doing so but just want to know you’re not alone then this is for you! Thank you Jen ❤️

On the whole, very good indeed. No bashing of people who lead different lifestyles, just small changes. I found the "A.K.A." thing a bit annoying.
