Breaking down each month into a week, and then each week into days, it becomes a lot easier to digest how you can make changes to help change the world! 🌍

So we’ve devised one way to turn your hump day into the most “ambitionising” day of your week, think of it as CTWW. Here’s 3 ways you can Change The World (CTW) every Wednesday!

Zero Carbon Wednesday

Living in London? Could you walk those last two tube stops instead? Booking that long haul flight — if the airline lets you know what plane shall be flying, why not pick the newer jet over the old and less carbon friendly 747. Going out to grab a pint of milk from the local shop? You could pop on those new Nike’s you got for Christmas and jog on down!

The little changes we make can make a huge difference to the world. Lower carbon emissions = better world 🌍!

Go surfing and pick up a bottle

This does require an ocean, and a surfboard, but after you’ve been in the barrel a couple of times and are walking back up the beach, why not spend the walk picking up the pieces of debris plastic you see (you’ll be shocked how much you find).

This is a simple example how you can use your passion to change the world, if you’re a skiier, pick up the debris you see in the pow you’re carving past to ensure our mountains stay fresh! We’re all connected and so if you decide to walk rather than grab your car for the small journeys at home, that will also help the mountains as they too are being affected by the changing weather patterns brought on from climate change.

Pick the vegetables without plastic packaging

Yep we all reach for the pack of 6 lemons in the packaging, but why not go for the loose ones and save on some additional plastic footprint you don’t have a huge need for! Simple small changes can make a huge difference and reducing our plastic use is super important!

There we go, 3 snippets of ideas which we hope will spark your imagination as to how you can Change the World every Wednesday! We haven’t got all the answers, but we hope this provides you with some inspiration as to how you can implement CTWW 🌍 !
