We are 5 students from the University of Edinburgh who seem to find ourselves discussing the worrying future of the planet, and now we want to do something about it. Most students don’t have the time or money to make an impact, so we’re going to document the simple green choices we are making, with the hope that you can make them to!

Like you, we’re on a tight budget and can’t afford to shop at the farmer’s markets every week (even though we would love to). Our bathroom is full of plastic bottles and we are partial to an Uber home from a night out. We can’t say no to a £3 meal deal and our postman is sick of our ASOS orders. What we’re trying to say is we’re not great at this stuff, but the most important thing is doing something instead of nothing.

Check back for updates on the successes and failures of living as a sustainable student.
