There are many ways that you can do more good with less which will also make you happier, healthier and more alive.
Doing more good
with less

'Do more with less' is a catchcry in the sustainability movement but it is also a catchcry for businesses who despoil the environment. The point is that doing more with less is fine if what you are doing is good – but what if it's bad?

That's why we say: Do more good with less

Modern western economies seem to be obsessed with efficiency when usually this is just being 'less bad' and at worst it is much more bad. The other problem with efficiencies is that they tend to create profit or savings which can then be invested for growth.

If you are hurtling towards a cliff in your car just slowing down isn't going to help in the long run. You need to change direction.

There are many ways we can change direction. The links on this page lead to different directions anyone could take to do more good with less.

In our fast-paced lives we can enjoy ourselves more if we slow down and smell the roses.

Simplicity
Our modern lives, especially in the western world, are often too complicated.
