Sustainable Sustainability

Nic & Hannahpodcasters.spotify.com
A podcast for imperfect people trying to be better and reduce their environmental footprint. We get it, we can’t all be Jill Stein or Greta Thunberg, but most of us want our Earth to be livable for a little longer. Every episode, we will research an everyday issue in living sustainably, it’s environmental impact, and a few ideas that you can use in your life to keep the Earth green, and maybe even save some money.
