Low carbon tips for you and your baby
Make sure your baby’s growing footprint is a green one with these low carbon tips:
- Choose cloth nappies over disposables
- When possible, dry your nappies on the line rather than using the dryer
- Feed your baby locally grown fresh foods rather than processed
- Choose to give your baby toys made from sustainable products such as organic cloth, sustainably sourced wood and natural rubber with water or vegie-based paints and glues (rather than non-biodegradable plastics or synthetic materials)
- Avoid buying new things and re-use! Ask your friends and family if they have any baby items, such as cots, toys, clothes, etc, that they no longer need.
- Teach your children to care for their environment and lead by example.
