I’ve recently moved into my first pad as a homeowner. The climate crisis was front of mind when we chose the place, so we opted for something that should be resilient and not require huge investments. But now that we’re here, slowly unpacking our boxes, I’m wondering what the next step is to reduce our home’s environmental impact.

We’re in a leasehold flat on a heat network, and many improvements such as double glazing have already been made. So though I’ve been switching to LEDs from halogen light bulbs and researching thermal curtain liners, I’m also eyeing our appliances. They’re all working well, but technology has moved on, and I suspect we could slash our electricity bill by upgrading them.
