    How about compromise instead of going nuts over the whole spiel. For example, fine, no toilet paper AT HOME where I can install a bide however not in public toilets where you can bet I wouldn't use a bide. How about less and lower watt electric lights but not candles, just a spot of shampoo instead of a huge sqwoosh, turn the shower off as you lather then on just to rinse off lather. You know, just cut back.

    Can you maybe give a little nod to Justin Rowlatt the BBC Panorama reporter

    for doing this last year?
