Come discuss how we can strive to live an (almost) zero waste life, and what micro-habits we as individuals and as faith communities can do to better our planet.
The book discussion is open to all. Whether you read the book in its entirety, some of it, or none, we welcome you to the lively discussion and look forward to seeing you there! This event is also 20s and 30s friendly, so please invite the 20s and 30s people in your life!
In a perfect world, we would all be able to fit a year’s worth of waste in a mason jar. But for most of us, doing so can be immensely intimidating or simply not feasible.
But even if you can’t be perfectly zero waste, you can still have a profound impact on our environment, climate, and health by making some simple changes to your lifestyle and habits. Author Melanie Mannarino shares 100 simple tips for being less wasteful in a variety of contexts:
-At Home, with advice not only for the kitchen and food, but also for cleaning and home organization
-Travel, from commuting to vacations
-Fashion, including finding sustainable brands and caring for your clothing
-Community, helping you identify ways to make a broader impact beyond your home
"For a less intimidating approach we can actually stick to, we consulted Melanie Mannarino's new book, The (Almost) Zero Waste Guide: 100+ Tips for Reducing Your Waste Without Changing Your Life. As the title suggests, the book focuses on small but meaningful ways to live a less wasteful life." —realsimple.com
