For Reflection

What do you enjoy doing? Whilst our hobbies don’t have to contribute to the good of the planet directly, it’s important that they don’t work against it.

Take up a hobby that gives you more direct contact with nature: go walking or cycling or rock climbing or pot holing or boating or paragliding or surfing; try woodcarving or willow working or hedge laying or painting or bee-keeping.
