Williams, a climate change campaigner at the charity has said that
people need to make a steady change from their old ways of
life.
"Every time somebody buys a new house, plans renovations to their
house, changes their car or buys new products like washing
machines, dishwashers, whatever it might be, people need to buy the
most efficient ones possible," he said.
"The most important thing is that we just steadily change the way
we think when buying products and to think more about the carbon
and not just the cost, colour or whatever it is you thought about
before."
Research has suggested that over a third of Brits would not be
willing to pay higher taxes to tackle environmental issues.
One way of improving the carbon emissions of a home is to make sure
that the walls use good insulation materials.
