Go Greener

Can you do something for our planet at Lent?

Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lenten season which ends at Easter. This is a time in the church calendar where we traditionally reflect on Jesus’s sacrifice and give up something.For the 40 days of the Lenten season, you may want to think about how your actions can be a way of improving our environment as part of our stewardship of the Earth. You may want to commit to eating no meat for 40 days, or only purchase sustainable fish, or plan towards having no food waste in your household, or recycle all your soft plastic, or give up plastic.

Other ideas can be found in this pdf from the Green Anglicans organisation.
