OFF THE GRID
After a young ‘Being’ journalist bumped into enigmatic Fern Taylor on a walk in a local forest and convinced her to come in for an interview – we are able to bring our readers this exclusive article, uncovering the secrets of Fern, who for the past 2 years has been living completely off the grid. And by off the grid we mean REALLY off the grid… no electricity, no TV, and NO WIFI!
This complete and utter disconnection from the outside world may seem strange, however Fern reports its made her the ‘happiest (she’s) ever been’, resulting in better sleep, stronger connections with friends, and more time for herself. So our question really is, why did Fern choose to lead this lifestyle in the first place, and more importantly, would it benefit you…?

Become a Climate
Ambassador
Here at Being we have an ongoing campaign to encourage readers to help with our action against climate change - or in other words - become a climate ambassador. We understand that many of our demographic are very passionate about environmental worries that will have a major impact on their future. As known by many of the world, the climate crisis is only getting worse, and activism is an incredibly important part of our young reader's, and Being's, identity. This is why we originally set up our climate change campaign, and its been steadily growing. We have now gained over 7000 ambassadors.
So what happens when you become a member? We send you a monthly newsletter detailing our goals, achievements, and stories from other ambassadors. We are planning on holding an annual meeting (in London, with drinks, snacks, and talks from many prominent activists from around the UK. We also focus on raising awareness for the environmental problems happening around the UK, utilising our Instagram account to reach our young demographic. Many of our members participate in local, individual projects such as litter picking days and charity work.
This campaign is an important and loved part of our magazine, and we hope to see you join the fun!!
