Now hear me out... I know they're controversial and I know they wind a lot of people up but one thing they did do is get people talking.

Oil - it's bad. Most people would agree drilling for oil and removing fossil fuels from the ground is a bad thing for the environment, now this goes deeper (excuse the pun), if we are to save the environment we should live in a sustainable way - which includes photovoltaic panels, solar panels, wind farms, generating electricity from tides, all of these are sustainable.

Beware of people offering cheap "tip runs"! It is a criminal act for someone to be paid to take your rubbish to the "tip" (Household...

In a world where being kind to the environment is becoming more and more important, there's a cool idea called upcycling that's making a big difference, especially right here in Weymouth.

Upcycling is like giving old stuff a super cool makeover instead of throwing it away. It's not just about recycling; it's about using your imagination to make something old into something awesome again!

'Flexible living spaces are what I create'

Recycling a material normally means reducing it to its raw material and then making a new item from it. For example, glass bottles are melted down and then used to make new glass bottles. This process uses a lot of energy. The value of the recycled material is “neutral”, after it is used it is thrown away, melted down and another bottle is made, which has the same value/quality of the bottle that was discarded.

Upcycling is similar to recycling, but literally, better.

An old item or “waste” material is reused, normally with minimal processing, this reduces the amount of energy wasted in melting it down to its raw material. More importantly, the value of the material has increased – a waste material with little or no value has become something far more useful or attractive and is now worth more or is better quality.
