This week is Go Green Week, an initiative hosted by People and Planet which aims to draw peoples' attention to climate change and opting for greener alternatives!
Rising temperatures and changes in the environment has led to all sorts of natural disasters like floods, tsunamis and tornadoes. The results have drastically changed peoples lives, and often meant having to uproot and start all over again completely.
And it's not just people hit by these disasters in far-away countries that are at risk - the worse the problem gets, the more likely we all are to end up affected.
People and Planet have suggested a whole host of activities that you can get involved in during the week.
Here at L8 Living Sustainably we are getting involved in a number of activities hosted by Granby Toxteth Development Trust:
