We developed Raising Earth because we felt the guilt and overwhelm just like you when we first started on our eco-friendly journey as a family.
We didn’t know where to start and after asking in an online eco-community and feeling ridiculed and judged by those with experience we almost didn’t try at all!
We didn’t want to be like them and we certainly weren’t keen on becoming so called eco-warriors. There didn’t really seem to be any inbetween. It felt very much all or nothing.
But we stuck at it, instead we found our own path – we made loads of mistakes and realised so many of the things everyone says you should didn’t work for us but we kept going and slowly worked out what did through trial and error.
We’ve learnt that you don’t need to be aiming for a completely ‘zero waste’ lifestyle to live more sustainably. You can keep you lifestyle and just make a few clever choices instead.
Every action or change you make, no matter how small, counts!
We all have the power to make our world a better place and we want to help as many people as we can to get started.
