Smart Reuse Ideas + 13 Items My Grandma Never Threw Away

Smart Reuse Ideas + 13 Items My Grandma Never Threw Away

Grandma repurposed everything + so should you. Here are 13 of the best reuse ideas (straight from Grandma!) so that you, too, can save money by wasting less.

My grandparents were incredibly resourceful: They pioneered countless reuse ideas so that nothing valuable was ever wasted.

These days, while many Millennials + Generation Y-ers harbor a collective single-use mindset, generations past had ingrained reuse within well before zero-waste living ever became a ‘thing’.

We can learn an awful lot from our grandparents. On this week’s episode I uncover 13 of the best household reuse ideas straight from Grandma.

Enjoy!

Talking It Out

Why aren't we talking about the elephant in the room?

Broaching the topic of climate change can be socially awkward at best and polarizing at worst. In fact, psychology, evolutionary biology and modern day tribalism keep many of us tongue-tied.

But staying quiet isn't an option. Breaking the silence around our warming planet is one of the most powerful tools we have for systemic change. On today's show, author and climate scientist Norm Leo offers a formula for unlocking more deeply human, empathetic, and impactful conversations about climate change.
