016: Earth Day, Every Day

10 small-ish lifestyle changes to celebrate earth day, every day.

On April 22, 193 countries celebrate Earth Day.

The premise of the holiday is great, right? It’s a day dedicated to planting trees. Picking up trash. Recycling.

But there’s a big problem with Earth Day, and it’s this: It’s just one day out of 365, then it’s over.

When it comes to the state of our planet, there’s not much to celebrate; that’s why I suggest we honor Mother Nature differently. This Earth Day, let’s NOT pick up trash. Let’s stop producing it, instead.

On this episode, I’m delighted to offer 5 action steps for those just beginning their eco-minimalist journey followed by 5 advanced strategies for those looking to up their sustainability game. Pick one + join me!
