As the first week of the UN Climate Summit in Glasgow draws to a close we explore how to be eco on a budget. We hear from two low-income families about what they can and can't afford to do when it comes to going green and Jen Gale author of The Sustainable(ish) Living Guide gives tips and advice on ways to save money while saving the planet.

According to a recent survey around 10,000 Muslim students each year are either forgoing university entirely or being forced to pay for their own tuition fees because there is no Sharia-compliant student finance available.
