We would like to hear from people about how their faith influences their views on politics and the environment

How much does your faith influence your political views, particularly when it comes to the environment?

The Guardian is looking to speak with individuals whose religious beliefs shape their stance on political and environmental issues. Does your faith call you to protect the Earth? Has it influenced the way you vote, advocate, or engage with climate justice? How do your spiritual values align or clash with mainstream political narratives on environmentalism?

How to quit the ‘buy now’ habit in eight easy steps – and shop smarter with forever in mind

• ‘If you pay more than £4, you’re being ripped off’: the fair price for 14 everyday items

Introversion is rarely useful, but it saved me a fortune in my younger years. So keenly did I loathe going to the shops that I just didn’t spend much money. I was perfectly happy, albeit a little bored and usually dressed in the same clothes.

Then online shopping happened. The lure of one-click, next-day consumables unleashed my inner impulse buyer like a starving castaway at a buffet. I never quite became a shopping addict, but the thrill of home delivery fuelled a period of slightly unhinged affluenza. My house filled with stuff while my bank account drained. I accumulated retro camera kit (70% unused to this day), expensive books about using said camera kit (100% unread) and an untold number of dresses that I bought only because I could send them back for free. I never did send them back, of course, and I never wore them, because I never wear dresses. But they were so pretty.

We would like to hear from people who have uprooted their life for a piece of art

The Guardian’s Saturday magazine is looking for people who filed for divorce after being inspired by a certain song, book, TV show or film. Did Taylor Swift make you realise it was time to leave a disappointing partner? Has watching a really great sex scene ever made you realise that the passion in your relationship was dead?

We are interested in hearing stories about how a particular piece of culture gave you the strength to end a relationship. Whether you came out as gay after watching Brokeback Mountain, or confronted your cheating spouse after watching The Affair, we would love to hear from you about what it’s like to uproot your life in response to a piece of art.
