PFAS: The Silent Water Pollutant Threatening Our Health
We need to talk about forever chemicals and the evidence out there that is pointing to how urgently policy makers need to act with strong legislation.
@LizzieOutside looks at the impact of PFAS on human health, wildlife and ecosystems and how standards in the UK are shamefully lagging behind international standards.
We need to be informed and armed with the evidence so we can use public pressure to fight that inaction from both industry and legislators.

The impact on both human health and the ecosystems that rely on them are still largely unobserved and unreported. Right now we have a monumental information gap that needs to be urgently filled, and that can...

A lot of people have been in touch with me in recent months asking for tips / advice and guidance for this challenge, so this video captures a lot of the most common ones to help you plan and pre...
HOMEMADE NATURAL DEODORANT RECIPE - JUST 3 INGREDIENTS!
Переглядів 1,4 тис.4 роки тому
Homemade or natural deodorants are often seen as weaker or less effective than chemical based ones - but that's a big myth. I've been using natural deodorants for a while now and I'm a total convert. And more recently I started experimenting by creating my own homemade deodorant using just THREE ingredients. 1) Organic coconut oil (4 tablespoons) 2) Arrowroot powder or cornstarch (3 tablespoons...

Have you ever considered the impact of your bank on the planet? Do you know if the money stashed in your savings is funding fracking sites, arms dealing and fossil fuel initiatives?

    Thanks so much for this and sharing your knowledge with us ...I am a regular water 'dipper' and wanted a paddle board for ages & after a few wobbly tries on someone's board..I was hooked, its indescribably wonderfull ....ive just invested in my first board ... ..I'm definitely going to book a few individual lessons with an instructor and join a club .... Safety is paramount and like you said, ....and I wouldn't consider wandering onto open water without experienced company ..

    Thanks for taking the time to put together such an informative and inspirational video Lizzie. A big help in answering some of the questions that were rattling around in my head! Planning to try and do this next year (2022) to “celebrate” turning a half century old. Typically do about 40-50k/week at the moment so obviously need to ramp it up a bit! Would certainly be interested in partnering up with a team if anyone is interested! Thanks again and good luck with the research. Nick

    Lizzie what a gorgeous video. Thanks so much. I’m a lightweight, bought a paddle board to relax on the water, I’ve a lot to learn, starting out on the lakes where there are many other boarders to learn from and with. Hoping for a fun summer. By the way for sure the Isles of Scilly are magical. I visited many years ago. 😃
