Now then. There’s a stigma, isn’t there. You know, being ‘green’ and all that. Being an ‘eco’ ‘warrior’. ‘Saving’ the ‘Planet’. ‘Over’ ‘using’ ‘apostrophes’. It’s all got a bit of an image problem, don’t you think?

Personally, I don’t have a beard, I don’t wear floaty skirts and cheese cloth. I generally don’t like a sandal (crocs don’t count, they’re comfy). I wash my hair regularly, I smell nice (mostly). I don’t like listening to the hits of Bob Dylan played on the pan pipes, or burning incense, and I don’t really know what hemp is. And I have never been a hugger of trees (not sober anyway).

I am a fairly ordinary, mid (to late!) 30’s woman, almost average height, GSOH (does this sound like a lonely hearts ad?). Anyway, the point is..

NORMAL PEOPLE CAN BE GREEN TOO!

You don’t have to put a wind turbine on your patio. Simple things, little changes, they all add up.

There’s really no need to cuddle any plant life, you don’t know where it’s been!
