Easy Changes You Can Make to Live More Sustainably:

Hello & Welcome back! I’ve been obsessed with environmental sustainability & wanted to share some simple changes my husband and I have made so far:

  • Reusable Cotton Rounds
  • Refurbished/Second-hand tech -link to Back Market for $10 off your order. Referral code: 6888f588d6f85083
  • Shampoo Bars (& Bar soaps in general)
  • Reusable Produce Bags
  • Switched to Who Gives A Crap toilet paper. -Link for $10 off!
  • Native Deodorant -If you place an order with this link, we both get a free mini deodorant! I used code: SHELBI8 for 25% off too!
  • Blueland cleaning products
  • Reusable Bags
  • Silicone Storage Bags
  • Trying to borrow/rent things
  • Stopped buying paper towels.
  • Buying second hand.
  • Connected to Community Solar & Wind.
  • Stopped using our clothes dryer.
  • We are more mindful of our energy & water use.
  • We use Socially Responsible Investing, aka SRI.
  • Shop at our local Co-Op.
  • Eating less meat (I’m now vegetarian and my husband has reduced his meat consumption.)
  • Attempting to grow some of our own food. (Update: It did NOT go well, lol)

We are planning on doing a lot more, but this is where we are at right now. šŸ™‚ I’ll share updates as we make more changes towards a zero-waste life.

A saying I love is:

We don’t need a few people doing sustainability perfectly, we need a lot of people doing it imperfectly.
