One Planet Living Principles

There are 10 One Planet Living Principles. Their names have changed several times since the concept was first created in 2003, e.g. Sustainable Transport changed to Travel and Transport. We have adopted the names we find the easiest to recall. 

To help you remember the 10 principles we have taken into consideration that most adults can store between 5 and 9 items in their short-term memory so we have reduced the 10 principles into 3 categories. 

The number denotes how many principles in that category and the label refers to the name of that category.

  • 1:ZERO means there is only 1 principle and the category is ZERO.
  • 4:AND means there are 4 principles and the category is AND.
  • 5:SUSTAINABLE means there are 5 principles and the category is SUSTAINABLE.

Slow Down. Consume Less. Share More. Help give your planet a cleaner, greener future...
