Can't give up? Give back, and have a Litegreen Lent
Topic: Food & Drink
Lent is fast approaching, the time of year that we all dread! Where our friends and colleagues with far more willpower than us unselfishly give up the things that they love - chocolate, coffee, and alcohol just to name a few and decide to push themselves to their limits and put us to shame!
At Litegreen we've decided that instead of giving something up, how about giving something back?
It's pain free and far easier on the conscience too! As a nation of consumers, giving something up has become harder and harder to do, yet at the end of the day if we all changed our lifestyle slightly and shopped sensitively to the environment the positive implication's for the planet and it's people would be huge.
Taking over globally, commanding a large marketplace and accounting for a vast proportion of our shopping expenditure, supermarkets are a key area in which we can take a closer look at our spending habits and make a real difference to others and the environment.
Ideally we would all like to buy food grown locally - but the realities of modern life and tastes mean that this just isn't practical. That's why we've carried out a review of the top supermarkets in the UK to see how they fare under the Litegreen microscope!
We have also put together our top tips/positive steps towards a Litegreen lent, after all even if you only chose to carry out one or two 'every little helps!' Hmmmm shopping (at Lent) never felt so good!
