About Us

” Treat the earth well: it was not given to you by your parents, it was loaned to you by your children. We do not inherit the Earth from our Ancestors, we borrow it from our Children.”

Ancient Indian Proverb

Welcome to Sustainable Echo- your guide to simple and sustainable living in the city

Sustainable living as a lifestyle choice, a journey rather then a destination.  The shift towards greener living is both empowering and liberating,  without doubt a healthier option that allows you to lead a more conscious life.

The purpose of sustainableecho.com is to share with you our current projects, experience and mistakes so that you can benefit from this information.

SustainableEcho is dedicated to urban households that would like to live simple and sustainable life  in the  city.

We hope you find our personal journey towards sustainability informative and inspiring!

  • Homemade organic #candiedginger - byproduct from ginger beer making 😋
  • #gingerbeer bottled. Ready in 2-4 days.
  • Unseasonably hot weather here in Melbourne prompted me to make some #homemadegingerbeer Ginger bug is fizzy and ready for fermentation.
  • Yes, you see right: I’m vacuuming my plants! They’re under a #whiteflies invasion 😱. I’m pulling out all the stops to minimise the damage: spraying with soapy water 💦 plus neem oil when under 24 degrees C, putting pieces of shiny and sparkly objects and vacuuming. In the past I have underestimated whiteflies hoping ladybugs 🐞 and spiders 🕷 will sort them out. They are damaging all the foliage and can kill young seedlings in no time. You can do only as much if they are in the neighbouring gardens as well, so I need a deterrent. I read that whiteflies avoid plants sprayed with worm juice. It’s worth a try. Wish me luck!
