Pledge To Save The Planet

by Julia Gash

19
Feb

MD Julia Gash reduces her carbon footprint.

Sheffield residents are being urged to make a commitment to helping the environment by signing a pledge to cut greenhouse gas emissions.
 
Sheffield Is My Planet campaign is asking people to make simple promises which reduce fuel and energy use, such as eating seasonal vegetables and switching to energy-saving light bulbs, or walking to work or school.

Bag It Don't Bin It MD, Julia Gash, is among those who have signed up.  Julia is a keen forager and often goes gathering for rose hips, berries, wild garlic and anything else that she can find in Sheffield.   She finds free, organic food in all sorts of places, especially where she works – in the unlikely setting of the industrial landscapes around Burngreave and Attercliffe.

To help more people be good to the environment, Sheffield Is My Planet has a team of experts on-hand to give free help and support with home energy use and insulation, smarter driving tips and to provide personal travel plans.

Log on to www.sheffieldismyplanet.co.uk or text 'promise' to 82010 to make your pledge – after which you will be told the total amount of carbon dioxide and money you'll be saving.
