Graciously Green (simplified… some practices!) R is a magic letter!
You've heard of learning the 3 R's.... Reading, wRiting and aRithmetic. Well a lot that we have learnt about going green can be learnt from learning some different R's!
1. Rejoice: In all that God has given us.
2. Repent : That we have not been content, and have consumed more than we need.
3. Re-evaluate our lifestyles.. Using 7 more R's!
a. Reduce
b.Reuse
c. Rent (Share)
d.Repair (refrain from buying new)
e.Re-train our diets...
f. Recreate (offset carbon)
g. Recycle as a last resort
You already are aware of the Plastics group we have formed in partnership with Village Action and the Parish Council. We are also hoping to start up a ‘Repair Café’ and also enter Zion for the Eco Church awards. (I’m hoping we may get close to a silver award!) If you’d like to be a part of any of these initiatives, please speak to Stephen or contact the office.
