We love visiting communities and having conversations about making changes at home. A hundred chats might not seem like a lot but it might mean a hundred people making small changes. Just like this quote from the 12th Century, sometimes a powerful way to shape the world is to start with yourself and then start to shape those around you. #goodforthehood #climateaction

Can your death save a forest? Sounds wild, but that’s exactly what’s happening at @walawaaniway conservation burial. Instead of taking up space, your final resting place can give it back to trees, to wildlife, to future generations. It’s a way to leave the world better, even after you’ve left it. Would you choose to go out this way? From our recent @ HOME event with Fiona Mccuaig

Think your veggie scraps are done for? Think again. From spring onions to sweet potatoes, your kitchen leftovers could be the start of your next harvest. It’s cheaper, more sustainable, and oddly satisfying to grow your own food from what you almost threw away. Here are 10 veggies you can regrow at home: ? Spring onions – Pop the white roots in a glass of water, and they’ll regrow in days. ? Lettuce – Place the base in a shallow dish of water and watch new leaves sprout. ? Celery – Same method as lettuce. Regrows beautifully from the base. ? Garlic – Plant a single clove, and it will grow into a full bulb. ? Potatoes – Got a spud with “eyes”? Cut and plant it for a whole new crop. ? Sweet potatoes – Place in water until it sprouts, then plant in soil. ? Carrot tops – While you won’t get a new carrot, the greens are edible and regrow easily. (Hello carrot top pesto!) ? Bok choy – Just like celery and lettuce, pop the base in water to regrow. ? Leeks – Treat them like spring onions—super simple to regrow. ? Basil, coriander & mint – Place cuttings in water until roots form, then pot them. Got a scrap success story?

You know how being kind feels good? There’s a reason for that... it's your brain is literally rewiring itself. When you’re kind, it feels good… which makes you want to do it more. That’s your reward pathway lighting up and reinforcing the habit. And on a neuro level, gratitude boosts oxytocin, helping your brain rewire itself to see things in a more positive light. Not just woo-woo—this is science-backed goodness ? This snippet came from our recent @ HOME event, where we sat down with Cooper Chapman from Thegoodhumanfactory to unpack the science of gratitude, the heart, and why it all matters more than we think ?

We asked energy efficiency expert Tim Forcey - @myefficientelectrichome this very question during our recent @ HOME event, and the answer is a resounding... YES! ? Tim broke it down for us, explaining that reverse cycle air conditioners (also known as heat pumps) are super efficient because they don't just create heat – they actually move it from the air outside into your home. It's like they're magic heat transporters! ✨ Here's the juicy bit: Tim says heating with an air conditioner can cost as little as a THIRD of what you'd spend on gas heating. ? That's like getting three times the warmth for the same price! So, if you've been wondering whether to ditch the gas heater and embrace the air conditioner, the answer is clear. You'll stay cozy AND save money. It's a win-win! Have you made the switch to air conditioner heating?

Great question and yeah, it can feel a bit backwards. But when you pay for accredited GreenPower, you’re not just buying renewable energy, you’re also helping fund more renewable infrastructure. That means more solar farms, more wind turbines, and a faster transition to clean energy. Right now, we’re in a transition period, and building new stuff is pricey! But that doesn’t mean it’s not worth doing. The more we invest, the cheaper and more accessible green power becomes in the long run. So yeah, it costs a little more now, but you’re literally helping build a cleaner future every time you pay that bill. Worth it? We think so. Are you already with a green energy provider?

So many of us want to save on power bills and do right by the planet, but it’s just not that simple.. Jo’s biggest worry? That the people who need the most support with energy costs are the ones who can’t access solar or batteries. If you rent, or can’t afford the upfront costs, you’re often stuck paying more.

One thing we learned at our recent @ Home event (Fix My Grocery Bills) is maximising kitchen storage isn’t just about neatness, it helps reduce food waste, improve meal planning, and save you serious money! By organising your fridge (and pantry) smarter, you can: ✅ Keep food fresh longer ✅ Stop overbuying (hello to those three jars of mustard!) ✅ Meal prep with ease ✅ Save money and reduce waste Simple changes like storing produce correctly, grouping items by category, and doing a quick “shop your pantry” check before grocery shopping can make a huge difference. How often do you clean out your fridge?

Should my compost be in the sun or shade? Short answer: It depends! But here’s the scoop: Keeping your compost in partial shade is usually the sweet spot. Too much sun? It might dry out too fast. Too much shade? It could stay too soggy. The trick is moisture balance, you want it to feel like a wrung-out sponge. If you’re in a super-hot climate, some shade helps. If you’re in a cooler spot, a little sun can give it a boost. Experiment with what works best in your backyard! Where do you keep your compost? ? With Jo Taranto

No need for labels if you like to mix things up! > Tupperware - Stackable and great for airtight storage. > Keep it simple - As long as you can see what you’ve got and it’s easy to grab, then you’re winning. No need for a Pinterest-perfect setup! The key is to create a pantry that feels functional, not overwhelming.

My favorite composting style? Dalek-style! It might sound like a sci-fi villain, but Dalek composting (aka cold composting) is my go-to method. Why? ✅ Low maintenance (great if you’re busy!) ✅ Just keep adding scraps, and let time do the work ✅ Works in small spaces It’s not the fastest, but if you’re patient, you’ll end up with beautiful, crumbly compost, without much effort. Are you a Dalek-style composter too? Or do you prefer hot composting or worm farms? Let’s chat compost!

My favorite composting tool? My aerator! Why? Because air is needed for life, for us and for our compost. Your pile needs oxygen to break down properly. No air = stinky, slimy mess. (And no one wants that.) Using an aerator helps mix things up, prevents smells, and speeds up decomposition. Plus, it’s oddly satisfying to give your compost a good fluff! Do you aerate your compost? Or just let nature do its thing? Let us know below! ⬇ @thejotaranto

The #1 composting mistake? Not enough “browns”! It’s easy to toss in fruit peels and veggie scraps, but if your compost is too wet and smelly, it’s probably missing “browns” like: >Shredded paper/newspaper >Dry leaves >Cardboard (plain, no glossy prints!) Think 50/50 balance—for every handful of food scraps, add a handful of dry material. This keeps the pile from turning into a slimy, stinky mess and helps it break down faster. What’s your go-to composting “brown”? Drop it in the comments! ??

Food waste doesn’t just disappear—it breaks down in landfills and releases a whopping 13 million tonnes of greenhouse gases every year. (2.5% of Australia's total annual emissions) But here’s the good news: composting can change that. Whether you’ve got a big backyard or live in an apartment, there’s a composting solution for you. ? Worm farms - Perfect for small spaces, these little guys turn food scraps into nutrient-rich soil. ? Compost bins - Great for gardens, these let nature do the work with minimal effort. ? Bokashi buckets - Speed up the process indoors with fermentation, then bury the scraps in soil. ? Electric composters - A high-tech option that quickly breaks down food waste, even in a small kitchen. ? Community compost bin - Check out your local community gardens to see if they're happy to take your scraps or chat to a neighbour, they may have worms that need feeding! There’s no one-size-fits-all—just pick what works for you and start turning scraps into something good.
