I am almost 18, so I’m still in the teen age stage and I am living at my grandparents (legal guardians) and I am all for organic eating and eco-friendly ways of life, I really want to live a eco-friendly life but my grandparents are not for it they think I’m dumb, and I am a teen so I shouldn’t care about the environment and organic foods are expensive and we have to feed almost 5 people.

What should I do to go eco-friendly and have my grandparents help? Talking to them is not gonna work

Hmmm. I’m going to take a big leap off the mountain and say that you are a product of the public schools which are full of teachers trying to mold young minds and influence them to become righteous environmentalists. It is the new spirituality. You can’t talk about God and the church and saving people, but “save the whales!”

Seriously though, do you have garden space? Are your grandparents going to object to a gardening project? Even if you don’t, consider container plantings. This might be a way to begin to grow some of your own foods in an eco-friendly manner. It will take some hard work and research on your part, but you sound all enthused about this stuff so at 18 you should have the energy to get something going here. I would guess that if your grandparents see you doing something positive rather than just criticizing them that they might even help you some… gardening often appeals to the elderly.

what is meant by eco friendly living??/

Eco friendly living is doing things in a simple way. Composting waste. Growing your own food (or at least what you can). Taking the time to make something yourself rather than buy it because that is the lazier option. Making and using a compost toilet. Planting trees that are useful, such as fruit, oak and ash, instead of keeping a garden as a lawn just because it looks pretty (saves mowing it too). Buying goods that you need from local sources. Selling or swapping goods that you have a surplus of, instead of allowing it to go to waste or sit there unused. Sharing tools and such with neighbours. Using and even making for use, plant based cleaning products. Reusing grey water. Giving scrap food to the wild animals. Using a bike to go to work or the shop, or if not possible, car share. Reduce what you really need to buy and own (doing this will save you masses of money, so you would not need to work for anybody else as much, giving you more time for doing things for yourself. Carrying out repairs yourself when possible. Saving old things that you no longer need to make other things (such as old radiators for making solar thermal water heaters). Do everything you can to reduce your bills so that your consumption is less. Think what else something can be used for instead of just having one item for one use (such as a laptop can be used to watch TV, so no TV needed, can be used to watch DVD’s, play music and games – wow, how many items would that save you buying, insuring and repairing?). If you use wood for heating, plant twice as many trees as you use, so that your kids and their kids have fuel too. Plant more fruit bushes than you need, so that the wild animals have food too (after all, we have taken their wilderness away from them somewhat). In between trees that you have, sow wild flower seeds, so that insects which in turn feed the animals have food (also saves mowing the lawn). Reduce your house temperature and wear an extra jumper. Saving old jam jars and making your own jam. Same for glass bottles – they can be used for storing fresh squeezed fruit juice.

The list is endless. Living ecologically is in part about smart thinking…
