Ecologi may not be a name you are familiar with, but familiarising yourself with the company is highly recommended, as their marketplace within proactive climate action is developing at a rapid pace.

The company was initially founded by a group of environmentalists in Bristol, who were frustrated with the lack of accessible contributions normal people could make to the climate problem. This was late 2018, and since then in a relatively short period of time the company has allowed individuals, as well as companies like ourselves, the ability to offer a meaningful way to act to the problem.

With our collective home being turned upside down, we all know by now that the problem is potentially still preventable, but it’s not going to save itself. So, it is up to all of us to help solve it, by reducing our carbon footprint and restoring nature.

On Wednesday 15 March, Jeremy Hunt, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, addressed the Commons to deliver the Spring Budget 2023, with an aim to bring people back into the workforce. Mr Hunt commented that the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) expects inflation to fall from 10.7% to 2.9% by the end of 2023.

The Chancellor said the OBR now forecasts the UK will not enter a technical recession this year. But despite narrowly avoiding recession, living standards are still predicted to fall by 6% within this fiscal year and the next.

Key budget announcements included the abolishing of the Lifetime Allowance on tax-free pension contributions, which was previously set at £1,073,100. The tax-free annual pension allowance for pension pots will also rise from £40,000 to £60,000 from 6 April 2023.
