Sustainable Shopping Is An Oxymoron

Sustainable Shopping Is An Oxymoron

Sustainable living has the reputation of being, well, expensive. When money is tight, how do modern families decide what to prioritize with their dollars?

Today I chat with Whitney Leigh Morris about the space where eco-consciousness and finances collide.

Here’s a preview:

[3:30] Think you can’t afford to be eco-friendly? Think again

[6:00] $8 leggings from Target or a $35 pair from an ethical brand? It’s complicated …

[13:00] Electric vehicle? Heat pump? How to get in the habit of asking whether you *actually* need that big ticket eco-item

[16:00] Thoughts on replacing items that are in working condition for more energy efficient options

[19:30] Are carbon offsets really worth the money?

[26:30] What ‘voting with your dollars’ really means

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.
