In this episode I discuss Global Climate Change, the basics of what it is, what is contributing most to it, and ways we can lower our emissions and carbon footprint. With so much at stake, it is time we begin to make changes to reduce emissions as quickly as possible, this starts with our everyday lifestyle. The future relies on us creating a more climate conscious world. I believe as we shift into that consciousness it will become convenient. But it must start somewhere, so let it start with us Earth Warriors!

Hello fellow Earth Warriors! In this episode we explore what is happening to our forests & talk about deforestation.
I have been looking at products in my everyday life, searching for solutions to cut down negative environmental impacts through what I buy, and to share it with others. Buying for our basic needs is an essential part of our life; but the planet is also essential. I believe we must stop buying for convenience, start voting with our wallet and purchasing more sustainable options for the betterment of our world.
Thanks for Listening!
