1) Colin decided to try to become a real eco-warrior and reduce his family's effects on the environment.
2) For one year in his family, there wasn't a TV or a fridge. They used one electric light to save electricity.
3) They didn't buy any factory-made bottles of shampoo, rolls of toilet paper, or bars of soap. They either made them or used alternatives.
4) They also tried to create less rubbish and use less fuel. They travelled by bicycle and bought second-hand things for their apartment.
5) They carried food in baskets instead of plastic bags. They avoided takeaway food so they wouldn't have to throw away all the containers it came in.
6) Though the experiment was tough, when they finished it, they were fitter, happier, and a little bit wiser.
