Just One Thing for the Planet

Just One Thing for the Planet is a project aimed at people in your local community who want to do their bit to live more sustainably but aren’t sure where to start. The sessions have had great feedback so far; let Karen know if you’re interested in participating or perhaps even leading your own group!

Discussion group materials:

The aim of this project is to try and reach people who are concerned about the climate, nature and pollution but not involved with any environmental groups. It consists of discussion materials, with suggested activities and some information, which can be used with a group of people, be they friends, family or neighbours. There are draft materials for 5 sessions, and the idea is that participants try out a lifestyle action between each session, and discuss how it has worked at the next one. So far there has been one trial run of the materials, which has seen participants make a range of changes and discuss environmental issues with other people. The second stage will involve 4-5 people running discussion groups themselves, and giving feedback on how the materials have worked.

There are four core sessions for everyone, and the plan is to have further optional sessions if the group would like to carry on meeting.

Session 1 Food

Session 2 Transport

Session 3 Power

Session 4 Nature

There is also an optional session on Waste. Please contact Karen at justonethingfortheplanet@gmail.com if you would be interested in knowing more.
