8 - Zero Waste Hero

Kathryn Kellogg discusses her unexpected path to pursuing a zero waste lifestyle. Originally moved to eliminate plastics from her life following a breast cancer scare, Kathryn developed a lifestyle that has saved her money, reduced her waste stream and improved her health. She shares her journey with Dave and Marc, on how she eventually got to where she and her husband, Justin, have reduced their non-recyclable trash down to two Mason Jars over the last two years. If you think Catherine sounds like some eco-whack job, think again. She is rational, reasoned and funny. Best of all she shares easy, actionable steps for listeners to reduce their own waste streams without disrupting their lifestyle.   Kathryn also discusses:  

• Meeting her husband and getting him to embrace a no trash lifestyle

 

• The health dangers of single stream plastics and BPA-coated paper receipts

 

• Interacting with friends and family who don’t share a zero waste lifestyle

 

• The easiest tips for others to reduce their waste stream
