    Although we have quite a low water footprint, one big aha was that the dishwasher would use less water than by hand. Which we thought was the opposite.

    Also we could reduce our meat intake to less than 1x / day.

    Because I have a lot of food allergies, I found eating meatless quite difficult for a time. Then I discovered a website which makes it easy to select options based on the kind of diet you need to follow. Have a look:

    I love this vegan yam curry. It soaks up the spices and coconut milk. And I chuck in whatever veg is in the fridge.

    Thanks to AlixPartners ESG learning & development program, I am doing a ExecEd course with Cambridge on Food Sustainability. This month I have chosen to do my assignments around food systems transformation needed to accelerate progress against the UN Decade of Action on Nutrition. In particular, to benefit children under the age of 5, who in many countries are subpar against both wasting and obesity targets.

    This week I am looking for companies who are innovating in this space : either from a nutrition or regen agriculture perspective/impact on Global South. Here is today’s find…https://myserenitykids.com/

    My water usage is below average which is great but I have explored further ways to reduce this further. My first task is to replace my taps and shower head to low-flow in order to save more.

    How did you try to catch the release of microplastics in your laundry? What did you learn in the process?

    I have recently purchased the laundry bag for GUPPYFRIEND, it captures the small fibres containing microplastics in synthetic clothing. They are a German brand helping reduce the amount of microplastic pollution, they have cloths and cleaning solutions and even a direct attachment filter for the washing machine!

    Me and my husband love being outdoors, we usually go hiking in the mountains of Oman as it is a little cooler. During the recent Eid break, we visited our favourite hiking spot which is Wadi Ash Shab. It is a great hike through a small farm village which leads to the base of the mountain, here are beautiful pools of water for swimming during the hike and it eventually leads to a large valley of water and a large cave! It is a great hike for anyone who has the pleasure of visiting Oman!

    I pick up litter everyday while out walking my 2 dogs, Lilli and Sansa. We found a car license plate on our walk yesterday morning after some bad weather!

    After the recent bad weather in the UAE, my community have lost a large amount of trees. The residents of the community have started a campaign to help replant the lost trees. I have contributed and will be planting 5 trees this weekend with my neighbours. 🌳🌴👩🏻‍🌾
