🚫🎈🚫 Celebrate your people’s lives without taking more lives. Balloon releases can kill birds, sea turtles, dolphins, farm animals, and more. According to Ocean Conservancy, balloons are one of the top 3 DEADLIEST forms of litter. We had funerals and life/homegoing celebrations without releasing balloons before, we can go back to that again. #balloonsblow #stopballoonreleases #litter #unsustainable
✨ Living sustainably can be a sacrifice, BUT it’s an investment in our future. Let’s choose quality over quantity and prioritize what truly matters. ✨ What’s one sacrifice you’ve made in order to live more sustainably that you don’t regret at all? #QualityOverQuantity #SustainableInvestment #SustainableLivingTips
Here’s what I know 👇🏾 👤 There’s no way one sustainable change that one person makes will “save the world,” but a lot of people making changes can have a positive impact. 👥 A lot of people having a positive impact won’t change the systems we’re in, but it will influence the systems to test out marketing sustainable products. Capitalism runs the systems and they’ll chase whatever the people are doing. So if a lot of folks want sustainable solutions to their everyday needs, established monopolizing brands will try to do that (some will lie, some will fail, some will succeed on a small level, few will actually be dedicated to sustainable changes). 🌐 If the systems realize that sustainable items sell (or get major backlash when their fake sustainable claims won’t fool the people), a bigger impact can be made. Elected officials who prioritize the environment can get voted in to be the law makers. Calling present day colonialism out will be more normal - and using our voices to educate about it and our votes to go against it will help. Making purchases with dedicated sustainable brands and buying less overall, will continue to send a clear message. We are slowly seeing a shift towards more sustainable products on the market because of actions like these. Hopefully that leads to more systemic sustainable solutions beyond capitalist endeavors. So if you see this reel and want to be a part of a sustainable community that cares about ALL PEOPLE + the PLANET, taking everything a small step at a time for positive impactful change, welcome to this community. I’m glad you’re here 💚🥰🫶🏾
All this to say you gotta find balance to be sustainable in this unsustainable world. If we didn’t have a sidewalk, it wouldn’t be slippery with acorns. But we do. And we rent so we won’t be destroying the sidewalk/paved path. Instead, we did a Google search to figure out how this lizard lives in the winter and saw that they dig & burrow. So we took them off of the tree (where we saw one over the summer so we thought they’d like it) and put them in a bush and put some leaves back so that they can stay warm and hidden. I think it’s time for influencers (and all folks, especially newly radicalized folks, of whom I once was) to be real about the difficulty of incorporating sustainable tactics sometimes. All this happened during nap time and a door that slammed from the wind woke the baby so saving the lizard completely took away some of the few minutes today that I get to feel like a human without a baby attached to me 🥴 this stuff - living sustainably in an unsustainable human world - requires effort and sacrifice. So let’s give each other grace and continue to give capitalists/billionaires and the government hell because they are the ones who could really make a significant change. 💚
@Made.trade sent me these gifts that are responsibly sourced and made with all natural materials 💚 (gifted) I love that you can find so many ethical and fairly made beautiful items all in one spot with them. The Cadera fanny pack is my favorite because fanny packs make my life a tad bit easier. They’re utilitarian and cute. My friends really loved the coasters during our sip and paint night at the house. And the the classic Moscow mule mug is made with recycled copper ♻️ When you’re looking for gifts that are easier on the earth, what do you look for first? 1 materials 2 how it’s made 3 who made it 4 something else Let me know in the comments! Ethically made, fair trade, sustainable, green, recycled materials, sustainable living, ethical,

What: Earth Hour is a symbolic event where people around the world are encouraged to switch off their lights for an hour in order to show support for our Earth. Pro sustainable tips: Buy secondhand canvases, or paint on cardboard in order to lessen you impactDrink a cup of sustainably-made and/or vegan wine while you paint Use these conversation starters to talk about sustainability or write down your thoughts on a matter. When was the last time you emailed a company that you love to either:thank them for a sustainable change or sustainable practice they do (like compostable packaging)?ask them to do something more sustainable (like add more sustainable packaging instead of plastic) Whether you choose to go all out and make your Earth Hour activities some to remember forever, or whether you simply head to bed early, I believe that Earth Hour is another holiday to spark much-needed conversation and inspire innovation to make our lives more sustainable.
Solar and wind farms require too much land – FALSE Yep, they sure do require a lot of land! So things like air pollution can also negative impact by blocking the sun rays from reaching solar panels.[11] While finite sources of coal, oil, and gas will most definitely run out one day, renewable energy sources are infinite. Even though solar and wind energy cannot be collected every hour of every day, grids can help manage output, and battery storage can help lessen the variability of wind and solar on their own.[4] Making and operating anything takes resources, but, once again, weighing the final impact provides a clearer understanding. When it comes to land impact, does solar, wind, nuclear, coal, or natural gas have the smallest footprint?
Their reusable cloth pads line for mamas, called Bear Necessities, wasn’t a far stretch for them, and I’m glad they did. The Crunchy Boutique family is always seeking ways to solve problems, so on top of selling cloth diapers by other brands, they started creating and selling their own brand of cloth diapers – West Coast Dipes. If you’re on a budget or just starting out, Bear Necessities are one of the best ways to get started with reusable cloth pads. Bear Necessities exists alongside many other natural living products at Crunchy Boutique, ranging from natural baby products to natural self-care products.
