Sustainable habits that actually save your time

Building sustainable habits can not only help save the planet, it can help save you time. 

Sustainability doesn’t have to mean more effort, so Kate Hall joined Jack Tame to run through some of the habits that can make your life easier, including: 

  • Batch cooking - cook once, eat multiple times  
  • A capsule wardrobe - fewer clothes, easier choices  
  • Bulk buying staples - fewer trips to the supermarket (e.g. misfit produce boxes and bulk bin stores)
  • Unsubscribe from marketing emails - less temptation to buy and less time spent wading through emails 
  • Own less stuff - less to tidy, clean, organise (this is especially relevant with kids stuff! Rotate their toys instead of buying new ones)
