Today, climate change is never far from the news. Greenhouse gas emissions from burning fossil fuels are causing global warming and changing our climate. In the UK about one third of all emissions come from our homes. The pressure is on us to examine our lifestyles and reduce our consumption of energy and resources.
You may already use low energy light bulbs and make regular trips to the recycling centre, but are you a hero or zero when it comes to climate change?
