Tickets to UK Aware at London Olympia this April will cost you five quid per ticket. That's not a massive amount, but hey, we realize times are hard out there.

That's right, F-R-E-E.

Even if you're not interested in the free tickets, Susu Organics is still worth checking out. They just recently signed up to be an exhibitor at UK Aware this year. You'll find loads of interesting articles on ethical, green and sustainable living on their website, as well as delicious recipes that will help you figure out just what to do with all of that good stuff you picked up at your local farmers' market this weekend. You can find gardening and nutrition tips, too.

Will you Join the Bandwagon?

Tickets for UK Aware just recently went on sale, but within the last two weeks, almost 3,000 have been sold. Looks like this year's show at London's Olympia in Earl's Court, April 17 & 18, is on track to be even bigger and better than last year's!

Some people may wonder why we bother stressing the importance of eco-friendly living during these times, when so many people are worried about losing their jobs and their savings, and the economic forecast looks more dour every day. Aren't there more important things to worry about? Indeed, times are tough, but passing down a livable planet to future generations should always be a priority, right? What's more, living your life in an environmentally friendly way can actually help you beat this bloody credit crunch.

At UK Aware, many of the exhibitors will show you how being green can help you save money and cut costs, too. At the Eco-eye booth, you'll discover how installing an electricity monitor can help you cut down on the total amount of electricity coming into your home. Eco-eye monitors, the only British designed electricity monitors on the market, literally "keep an eye" on the amount of energy you're using, and they display this information in a user-friendly way, serving as a reminder to turn off unnecessary lights and appliances.

Then there's the National Trust for Green Energy, a new, renewable electricity product, available to everyone, that is produced from clean energy sources such as offshore wind and hydroelectric power. At their booth at UK Aware, you'll learn how switching to green energy is simple and can, yes, save you money! The National Trust Green Energy was created by the National Trust and npower to make it simple for consumers to switch to green energy. When you sign up, npower will give the National Trust £15 to invest in low and zero-carbon initiatives at its sites, and as a customer, you will receive great offers and ideas to help you save energy in your home.

So hurry up and join the other 3,000 people who just bought tickets to UK Aware. You can purchase them here. See ya there!
