Sustainable(ish): The power of imperfect eco-action and how to get started
The terms “sustainability” and “green living” - as well as the demanding lifestyle changes they come saddled with - can often feel overwhelming. There are so many things we feel we could - or should - be doing, though we’re short on the time, headspace and energy to actually make them happen.
In this masterclass aimed at the eco-curious, Jen Gale, the author of The Sustainable(ish) Living Guide and The Sustainable(ish) Guide to Green Parenting, will break “sustainable living” down into manageable chunks that will enable you to move from intention to action without feeling anxious, guilty or overwhelmed.
Without judgment, discover how you can start right where you are, and how to do what you can.
