Hot Women Campaign Supporter Lucy Moorhouse

Lucy Moorhouse from London tells how her life has changed in a positive way since heading up a carbon offsetting organisation, her concerns about compulsive buying and how she thinks that the Hot Women Campaign will allow more people to understand climate change.

My life has definitely changed since I started heading up a carbon offsetting organisation. Climate change has always been a concern of mine, but now every day I read something or speak to someone new on Climate Change and Carbon Emissions, and how they are affecting our environment, and it shocks me. It is such an important topic and I feel that not enough people are taking it seriously.

What I like about Hot Women is that its main focus is encourage positive change. I know from myself, just turning off the tap whilst I brush my teeth and cycling to work, to buying organic fruit and veg from local farmers, has been good for me. Not only do I feel healthier, but I know that my input, however small it is, is helping the environment and educating others to do the same. In fact I would feel morally wrong not cutting down on certain things.

Ecotoxing is a good idea. The British public is a consumer nation and needs to be educated on the impact buying and wasting has on the environment. It is quite easy for individuals and families to change their lifestyle to suit climate change if they are shown ways to do so. Wasting and cluttering seems to have peaked. It is time to stop compulsive buying and start helping the environment!

It is important to feel you have personally made a difference, however small, which is why our organisation shares and supports the aims of the Hot Women Campaign. Through our offset schemes we allow our members the same sense of satisfaction. By offsetting through us they can track the project that they have invested in. Whether it is seeing photos, or watching video footage of progress, people need to feel part of the proces and to see how their money has been spent. This sense of teamwork is so important in spreading the message of climate change. Our vision for the future at Offset Someplace Else is the same as that of the Hot Women Campaign. We must all stand together and make our views on Climate Change clear.
