The Low Carbon Lifestyle Tour is taking palce at the moment. Mukti Mitchell is sailing around Britain in a zero-emmissuion microyacht to promote a low carbon lifestyle. The tour will visit 40 UK ports including Swansea,Liverpool,Glasgow,Edinburgh,Newcastle,London,Southampton and Exeter. At this present time we are making carbon dioxide faster than plants can turn it back into oxygen. Carbon dioxide goes into the atmosphere and forms a blanket over the planet. When this happens the planet starts to warm up. In turn, Climate Change occurs which could threaten life of all sorts. Rising sea levels, storms, floods, temperature changes. To try to reduce our CO2 you need to firstly see how much we use. If you go to the website www.lowcarbonlifestyle.org, you will find a caluclator. At my Caffe Society Fairtrader Store we have started to do our bit, including using low energy light bulbs, washing our linen at 30 degrees, using where possible recycled packaing, staff are shaing lifts to work or using the new low emmission bus service here on the Island.
