I use Octopus Energy which are a clean green sustainable energy company - if you're in the UK and are curious, here are the two videos I talk about them in:
youtu.be/O0TR7RvVRlI and youtu.be/IEqf94lb44U
And here's my referral link if you'd like to get £50 off (I get £50 off too, woo!) https://share.octopus.energy/fun-hawk-883
All music used is licensed through Epidemic Sound - I've been using them for years and hand-on-heart it's really fab. You get unlimited use of their music per month for a pretty bargain fee. Here's my referral link (if you sign up through it I get a free month): epidemicsound.com/referral/1b1yhj
If you're a company that makes plastic-free products, pays their tax and doesn't exploit people, I'd love to hear from you if you'd like to sponsor the channel: leenanorms@gmail.com
