Struggling to stick to your New Year's Resolution? LRFS have got you covered with an easy one that does good for you and the planet. While we're all still stuck indoors, we've rounded up five of the best people you can follow on social media to keep yourself educated and motivated in the fight for sustainability.
Mikaela Loach - @mikaelaloach
If you don't know her yet, get to know. Mikaela Loach is a self-described climate justice and antiracism activist who has made a name for herself as a force for change while studying Medicine at the University of Edinburgh. Sharing her views on everything from veganism, sustainable travelling and the migrant crisis, to affordable, ethical fashion and how to live sustainably as a student, Mikaela Loach is on the LRFS 'must follow' list for 2021.
Flora Beverley - @foodfitnessflora
You may already be following Flora on Insta for your daily dose of fitness motivation, but Flora Beverley is equally as vocal about her commitment to sustainability as she is to leading an active lifestyle. Having gained herself a platform on social media thanks to her own personal health journey, she now uses her social media accounts and her blog to help inform and educate her followers about the importance of living sustainably. Kudos, Flora.
Greta Thunberg - @gretathunberg
By now, Greta Thunberg is a household name - and for good reason. No longer a child, but still as passionate about the climate crisis, Greta Thunberg is the voice of change that the world needs right now. If you don't already follow her, you should. Greta didn't give up the last 2 years of her childhood calling world leaders out on their BS just for us to ignore her on IG. Let yourself be inspired and give the GT a follow.
Sir David Attenborough - @davidattenborough
From the fresh young face of the movement, to the undisputed GOAT of environmentalism, Sir David Attenborough is the OG of sustainability. Having started his career with the BBC back in the 1950s, David Attenborough has continued to captivate the world's attention right up to the present, creating a number of different documentary films and series that bring the wonder of our planet right into our living rooms. David Attenborough continues to speak out about the extent of the climate crisis and how we can all make sustainable choices to save our planet. All of these qualities undoubtedly make him worthy of a follow. Now, we just need him to RSVP to this year's show...
Helena Rose Cope - @helenarosecope
Helena Rose Cope is our final sustainability warrior worthy of a follow. With over 52k subscribers on her YouTube channel, Helena spreads the message of veganism and ethical living for a happier, healthier, and longer life for everyone - the planet included. A champion for greater inclusivity and diversity to boot, Helena Rose is a must follow for vegan-spiration and tips on how to live more sustainably.
The sustainability movement is expansive and diverse - maybe a bit overwhelming if you're just dipping your toes into the steadily rising water. Consider this LRFS Top 5 roundup a pressure-free springboard to inspire greater change in your life.
Lots of love from LRFS x
