5 Reasons Why You Should Consider Getting an Electric Car

*Collaborative Post

Driving is an important part of my life. It allows me to get freely around my town, it means I can take my children to activities and clubs without any hassle and it also means that we can travel all over in order to enjoy family time together as well as getting to experience so much more. But with the current talk of climate change it is certainly an area I have been feeling more guilty about. Giving up driving isn’t something I could ever do and I am sure a lot of people would agree with this.

Be Greener and Stay Safer By Switching to Winter Tyres

*Collaborative Post

Driving is a big part of my life. With 2 children, school, swim lessons, classes and activities to attend, there is just no way I could solely rely on public transport for this. Even though we have tried our hardest to make small sustainable changes in our lives, unfortunately, the reliability of a car is very important to us and not only makes our life simpler but also allows us to provide our children with the opportunities to visit more places and see family more often. With this in mind, I am far more aware that I need to look after my car, maintain it and look for the best products in order for it to perform as efficiently as possible in order to help to lower my CO2 emissions. So, how can you make this type of travel greener as well as safer? One very important way is by switching to winter tyres in the cooler months of the year.
