"There are many practical ways we can each reduce our ecological footprint. Catch public transport, ride a bike or walk. Get more energy efficient in your home and car. Buy green power. Offset your emissions. Recycle waste and avoid excessive packaging.

"Also, think about what sorts of activities you're supporting with your savings and superannuation. More people are recognising that the actions of the companies they invest in have a great bearing on their own ecological impact. So, as well as adjusting personal actions such as conserving energy and water, ethical investors can also target their savings to support genuinely sustainable industries. I believe that sustainable businesses will provide the best long-term returns."
