How you as an individual can take action...

Plan long term to reduce your ecological footprint to the one planet level. When making key life decisions like deciding where to live, consider the effect on your ecological footprint.

You can visit BedZED Visitor and Exhibition Centre to find out about how BedZED residents are reducing their footprints.

Use the 10 principles of One Planet Living as a framework for a personal Sustainable Action Plan:

	If you live in the UK you can calculate your personal ecological footprint and get a personalised plan to help reduce it at http://calculator.bioregional.com
	If you live outside of the UK you can create your own One Planet Action Plan by downloading our template and guidance.
Switch to a green electricity supplier to instantly achieve zero-carbon electricity at home. Try Good Energy (pictured below) or Ecotricity. For every individual who switches to Good Energy 100% renewable electricity, the BioRegional charity receives a £20 donation. We promise to spend it developing more solutions for sustainability
