Do you eat local foods? Walk or take the bus? Try to conserve energy and water at home? Re-use jars and plastic bags? Help out your neighbours? If you want to show off these and other innovative ways you live in harmony with the earth, why not enter the sustainable home competition initiated by Sustainability for Seychelles in collaboration with the Department of Environment. The competition seeks to reward homes who are doing their best to live a simple, eco-friendly lifestyle. It doesn’t matter what size your home is, whether you rent or own it, or even whether you have a garden. The judges are looking for homes that demonstrate a simple lifestyle in harmony with nature and with a minimal impact on the environment. There are different categories for flats, and for small, medium and large homes. The smaller home categories don’t need to have high-tech equipment to qualify - judges are looking for innovation and eco-friendliness! The prizes, sponsored by Barclays, feature equipment to help you go even greener, like rainwater tanks, rat-proof composters, energy and water saving devices, energy efficient appliances, etc. To enter, pick up an entry form at your local DA office, PUC in Victoria, SAA or Botanical Gardens. Deadline is November 11th, 2011. A team of judges will visit finalist homes in late November. May the homes with the lightest eco-footprint win!
