Seeing it for ourselves inspired us to start on our own eco-journey.
To do our bit to help further damage and to reduce the damage already done.
It wasn’t an easy journey. From the beginning the sheer amount of information out there was overwhelming. It was hard to know where to start and we were made to feel that we had to do it all perfectly or their wasn’t any point.
We felt we had to do everything all at once.
So that’s what we tried to do.
Trust me when I say that it doesn’t work and it is NOT the answer.
Sustainability needs to be sustainable for you and your family.
So we stopped and took a step back.
We came to terms with the fact that we cannot do EVERYTHING
and what’s more, it really didn’t matter if we did it ‘perfectly’ either.
Instead we discovered that taking our time and introducing things slowly to find what really worked for us helped so much.
It empowered us to try more and more simple actions and we soon realised that those small actions add up quickly to a big impact.
The further we got on our journey the more we felt the desire to help other people to become more sustainable so that they can make a difference too.
The more of us that join together taking simple actions the bigger the effect we can have.
Which is how Raising Earth was formed.
