G’day Leeds! says the Aussie who was very, very jolly,
Who flew on a plane, economy class to be plain, https://sdgs.un.org/goals/goal13
To reduce carbon footprint — a wise first volley.
At first, I gasped — “Pack light? Not quite!” https://sdgs.un.org/goals/goal12
But soon I realised it felt just right.
A clever move — with only 20kg, I said, “Alright!”
Alright, I said — let’s only pack what’s needed,
A few pairs of pants, and items that can be repeated.
Let’s not forget a tote bag, for my supermarket shops to be completed. https://sdgs.un.org/goals/goal12
It folds in my backpack, no waste mistreated —
Reusable wins, mission succeeded!
G’day Copenhagen! A cycle or stroll will do, https://sdgs.un.org/goals/goal11
No fumes, just views and skies so blue.
Omio helps me choose what’s right, https://sdgs.un.org/goals/goal13 ; https://www.omio.com/apps
Bus or train — not a jet-fueled flight.
Swipe the app, it guides me through,
Less CO₂ — and it’s cheaper too!
G’day Leeds City Council! Recycling rules https://www.leeds.gov.uk/
Teaching Aussies like me not to break the rules!
A stroll to Raw Coffee, a local steeze, https://www.rawcoffeeroasters.co.uk/ ; https://sdgs.un.org/goals/goal12
With a keep cup in hand, I’m sipping with ease.
G’day flatmate! says the Aussie next door,
“What are you doing to waste less — and reuse more?”
“Refill!” says the neighbour, an app that explores https://www.refill.org.uk/
The nearest water fountain — sustainable chores! https://sdgs.un.org/goals/goal6
G’day washing machine! Are you ready to spin?
Set me to cold — that’s how we both win! https://sdgs.un.org/goals/goal7
From wet to dry, let sunshine begin,
I skip the dryer, peg clothes with a grin — https://sdgs.un.org/goals/goal13
Fresh air and breeze, that’s my eco spin.
G’day Tesco’s! What can I purchase?
Good health and wellbeing — now that’s real service! https://sdgs.un.org/goals/goal3
I’ll fill my basket with veggies and greens,
Plant-based meals — the stuff of my dreams. https://sdgs.un.org/goals/goal12
Eating locally with every bite,
A choice for the planet that feels just right.
Reusable tubs for leftover stew, https://sdgs.un.org/goals/goal13
Cutting down waste — it’s the least I can do.
And if you overspend, that’s unfortunate,
But follow OLIO’s lead — don’t let it stagnate. https://olioapp.com/en
Give to your neighbours, share what’s around, https://sdgs.un.org/goals/goal2
I promise you — joy and kindness abound.
G’day Montague Burton!
From where I reside, it’s a short walk to the city’s vibe.
Unplugging when I leave — it’s a simple way to thrive, https://sdgs.un.org/goals/goal7
Saving power daily, keeping our planet alive. https://sdgs.un.org/goals/goal13
G’day Leeds!
Travelling light with a purpose in view,
Omio’s app helped me choose what to do.
Throughout my adventures, I’ll follow what’s true
Less flight, more insight — sustainability too.
I wish myself well on this journey ahead,
To live by my values, not just what’s said.
With less waste, more care, and purpose aligned.
I’ll share my steps — with others in mind. https://sdgs.un.org/goals/goal4
