For many of us, striving for a greener, environmentally conscious lifestyle has become more important than ever before. We’re conscious that by making small changes in our behaviour, product choices, and consumption habits, we can create a ripple effect that contributes to a larger, greater impact on the planet.
If you’re looking to make a positive impact on the environment, your home is the perfect place to start. Your Kellen home is more than just a place to live, it is the opportunity to help you live a greener lifestyle.
From conserving energy to reducing waste, we’ve put together our top sustainability tips to help you create an eco-friendly haven in your Kellen home.
Embrace Energy Efficiency
Our sustainable new build homes feature a range of energy-efficient appliances, designed to save energy while maintaining peak performance. To unlock their full potential, remember to turn on energy saving mode to ensure that you seamlessly integrate your commitment to sustainability into your daily routine.
Welcome Water Wisdom
Water is a precious resource, and conserving it is crucial. Making sure to fix any leaks promptly, embrace water-saving fixtures, and collecting rainwater for gardening purposes can all ensure that you are living sustainably at home.
You can also make a noticeable difference by practicing mindful water usage. This includes turning off the tap whilst brushing your teeth, making sure your dishwasher and washing machine is full before using and taking shorter showers.
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
The three R’s are still as relevant as ever. Minimise your waste by reducing single-use items, reusing containers and products, and recycling properly can help to contribute to a more sustainable lifestyle. You can even set up a recycling station in your home to make recycling easy and convenient for the whole family.
Support Sustainable Shopping
By making mindful choices each time you shop, you’re contributing to a more sustainable lifestyle. When shopping for groceries, why not opt for locally sourced produce to support nearby farmers and reduce carbon emissions from transportation. You can also seek out products with minimal packaging or products packaged with eco-friendly materials to minimise waste.
Go Green when Gardening
Transform your garden into a thriving hub of eco-friendliness with green gardening practices. If you’re looking for ways to be more sustainable, select native plants that are well adapted to the local climate, requiring less water and maintenance while supporting local lifestyle.
Composting kitchen scraps can not only enrich your garden soil, but also divert organic waste from landfills. You can also embrace organic gardening techniques that avoid harmful pesticides and chemical fertilisers which improve the health of your soil and the broader ecosystem.
