What is One Planet Home?

If everyone continues to live like the
average Brit, we will need three
planets to support our way of life

Save Energy

Saving energy is the best
way to reduce your eco
footprint at home –
improve insulation, reduce
draughts and switch off
electrical equipment when
not in use

Save Water

According to Waterwise, the
UK has less available water
per person than most other
European countries

Recycle

By composting and
recycling, you can reduce
the amount of waste you
send to landfill by as much
as 40%

Conserve Nature

Make your garden or
balcony your own haven
for nature and support
British wildlife

Grow Your Own

Growing your own
vegetables, fruit and herbs
are great ways to beat
rising food bills

Healthy Homes

Switching to low odour
products with minimal
levels of VOCs can help
to minimise your family’s
exposure to pollutants in
the home
