Follow the Eco Family


We all like to see how other people are doing – reality TV has been a massive audience ratings success. Personal blogs are all over the Internet and now, we can follow the adventures of a normal couple in New Zealand who are documenting (blogging) their attempts to be greener.

Matthew and Waveney live in Christchurch with their dog and two chickens. They want to last an entire year without producing any domestic rubbish and started their 'adventure' on February 1st

You can follow their experience on their website: http://www.rubbishfreeyear.co.nz/ where there is information about the challenge they have set themselves, how they hope to achieve it and what they are up to each day.

There is also a very helpful ‘Rubbish Free Guide’ packed full of useful information. Might just inspire you to reduce some of your own household rubbish.
