52 weeks of sustainability
Going green one week at a time!
That’s why we’ve created this weekly guide: to provide you with practical, actionable advice every week of the year. Going green can feel overwhelming, but small, consistent changes add up to a big impact.
We have ideas tailored to life in the UK, from reducing household waste to making greener choices in your everyday activities. These tips are designed to suit a variety of lifestyles and are backed by reliable UK-based sources.
Each week, you’ll find a focused tip that aligns with the seasons, local resources, and environmental goals. Learn how to save energy in winter, support British wildlife in spring, and celebrate holidays more sustainably.

Week 2: Recycling Electronics
Fact: Recycling your old electronics responsibly can prevent harmful substances from entering the environment and conserve valuable materials.
In the UK, it’s easier than you think:
- Local Recycling Centres – Drop off your unwanted devices safely
- Retailer Take-Back Schemes – Many stores will recycle old electronics when you upgrade.
