Worm farms help us divert organic waste away from landfills, where it produces methane, a seriously powerful greenhouse gas. They can also save you money, and produce valuable, organic fertiliser for your home garden and indoor plants.
Let me take you through the hows and whys of starting your own worm farm, so you can witness the magic recycling power of nature first-hand.
I'll guide you through the process step by step: Why it's a good idea The benefits you'll get from having your own worm farm Which one to buy (plus tips on making your own) Where to find worms How to set it up for success What to feed your worms (and what not to feed them)
It's also a great way to engage with kids and give them autonomy over a climate solution that makes a real difference.

So many choices. So many ways to help. But which option is best?
Do you often experience paralysis by analysis? It’s when you try to make a decision, but get presented with so many options that you literally go round and round in circles, unable to make a final call, stuck in the comparison space.
Indecision usually leads to procrastination and a distinct lack of progress. This phenomenon can occur during tasks as small as buying a pair of jeans, right up to making large investments like buying a car, buying a house, or as we’ll discuss in this episode – choosing how to ‘do your part’ to help the climate crisis.
Presented with uninspiring (and often expensive) choices, it’s easy to fall into a state of paralysis, where personal climate crisis solutions fall into the ‘maybe-one-day’ wish bucket.
Fear not! There is light at the end of the tunnel…
Let me present two arguments that can help you move from a paralysis mindset to a place of action. Where your internal morals align with your daily choices and activities. A place where you can feel proud of your contribution, without having to spend thousands of dollars in the process.

The Wairarapa Eco Farm was born out of a desire to produce quality food with ecological integrity. The farm is situated on the Tauherenikau Plains in South Wairarapa. Over the last 20+ years, it has grown from bare paddocks into a secluded oasis. The owners, Frank and Josje, and their family have created their very own micro-climate which has given them the opportunity to grow a wide variety of crops for their Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) programme.
In this episode, I visit the farm to learn more about the CSA concept, meet the team who are so passionate about feeding healthy food to their local community, and get a glimpse into what it's like to live in a world where you are constantly co-creating with nature.
You can learn more about Wairarapa Eco Farm (and apply to join their CSA) at their website:

You can also check out this epic video on the farm by Happen Films:

An introduction to the Earthworkers Programme, run by For the Love of Bees. Along with an explanation of the Community-Supported Agriculture (CSA) concept.
The Earthworkers course taught me how nature thrives and how I can help create the best possible conditions for life, on any land I am fortunate enough to interact with. They teach how to become a biology-first, regenerative organic grower, skills you can practice at home in your own garden, or use to start a larger project like the OMG urban farm in Auckland.
CSA projects are the future of food production: A decentralised network of small scale urban farms in every neighbourhood, providing weekly vegetable boxes to their local community. Growing food this way creates a zero-waste farming system that produces healthy, organically grown produce in a climate positive framework.
Its climate change mitigation, local job creation, community food security and improved health outcomes all rolled into one.

“What gets measured gets improved.” - Peter Drucker
Our weekly rubbish output is a regular barometer of how we engage with our home (our planet). In our modern society, it's far too easy to dump our waste in a bin outside, have it collected each week and never think about it again.
Out of sight, out of mind.
This week, I'm challenging you to simply track your waste for a week. So you know exactly what's going out on a regular basis, and potentially how much waste you could avoid with small lifestyle changes.
For more on this subject, and for specific tips on how to reduce your waste, check out these posts on our website:

When was the last time you took some time to appreciate the natural beauty all around you?
Challenge of the week: Spend 10 minutes exploring the environment near your home, choosing some flowers and foliage to create your own wildflower bouquet. Gift it to a loved one or make a strangers day, or just bring some natural beauty into your home.
Note: This is a great activity to do with kids!
As part of this process, we encourage you to take a second look at what many people call 'weeds'. Many of these plants have the most beautiful flowers and show off the ability of nature to thrive and create beauty in challenging spaces.
One way to become better custodians of our planet is to take time to appreciate the everyday beauty that surrounds us.
One of the biggest 'Ah-ha!' moments on my journey occurred when it dawned on me that climate change is not binary in nature. It's not a single outcome that happens or doesn't happen. Rather, climate change is a continuum. Literally, every kilogram of CO2 emitted into the atmosphere makes our planet warmer.
Therefore, every positive action that reduces emissions makes a difference. Awareness of this should hopefully make you feel empowered.
Climate change is happening. The world is burning up. It is simply a matter of how bad we let it burn.

"Compassion is infinitely sustainable." - Dr Sailesh Rao
Carbon Critical founder Jamie Heather has spent the last year delving into the complex and often confusing world of forestry, to understand the role that trees can play in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. His ultimate goal: find new business opportunities to achieve big emissions reductions via trees and other nature-based carbon sequestration methods.
This episode will provide you with a high-level introduction to forestry and its impact on the climate crisis, along with an explanation of the ETS (Emissions Trading Scheme) and some of the opportunities in the fast-growing carbon farming sector.
We cover various subjects including the differences between native trees and exotics, the ETS and voluntary carbon markets, the power of forestry to sequester carbon compared to other methods and much, much more!

This is part 1 of a 2 part interview. In our next episode together we discuss how to maximise your income, build a time machine business and escape the rat race.
In this episode, I discuss what the lockdown experience can teach us about our own financial situation and how we can use that information to achieve financial freedom quicker than we ever thought possible. That freedom can, in turn, allow us more time to do the things we love (like spending time with our families) and create space for positive lifestyle changes, like learning to garden, changing our diets or becoming healthier in general.

This episode is the audio version of a recent blog post we published on Palm Kernel Extract imports to New Zealand, which has received a lot of attention and has been shared hundreds of times on social media.
It turns out, we import more than twice as much palm kernel extract as China, India and Australia combined. And those countries have a combined 63.5 million dairy cows (we have 6.1 million).
In Indonesia, where rainforests are cleared to make way for industrial palm oil plantations, deforestation is responsible for 80% of the whole country’s CO2 emissions. This made Indonesia at one point the world’s third-largest emitter of greenhouse gases (according to Greenpeace).
You can read the original article and check out all the sources and personal action steps listed here:

The Carbon Critical Net-Zero Fund provides kiwis with a convenient and tax-efficient way to make a diversified donation to the charities leading the fight against climate change.
DID YOU KNOW... The average Kiwi generates 7 tons of carbon dioxide emissions per year. Some of the charities we support can offset a ton of emissions for as little as $1 USD. For the price of a cup of coffee, you can offset your carbon emissions for 6 months! A lifetime of emissions can be offset for about the same cost as a new smartphone.

Plant-based eating is becoming more and more popular every day as more people realise the health, environmental and ethical benefits of reducing their intake of animal products.
Before we made the switch away from meat, I considered myself something of a meatatarian, so I have empathy for the reluctance you might feel before taking this kind of leap. The first piece of advice I want to give you is that it’s easier than you think.
In saying that, removing animal products from your diet may seem like a daunting step, so in this episode, we talk you through our top tips for a successful transition.
Keep in mind, any reduction in meat consumption is good for you and good for the planet. It's not about chasing perfection.

'Doing Good Better' by William Macaskill
An empowering, practical guide to increasing your positive impact through your career, consumer choices, volunteering efforts, and charitable donations.

Annah and I share our personal journey, explaining our transition to a life without meat.
We talk through how we felt at the time. Documentaries that encouraged us to make the change. What the first few months looked like and why we are still living a plant-based life, 5 years later.
You'll hear why we think eating meat doesn't have to be a binary decision. Why placing labels (like vegan) on your choices can be a bad idea. What misconceptions we overcame and all the lessons learned along the way.
An intro to the wonderful world of backyard composting. You'll learn:
-
How to drastically reduce your household rubbish output (by at least 50%)
-
Why it's really bad for the planet when food waste ends up in landfill
-
How easy it is to set up your own composting system
-
What you can and can't compost
-
Tips to help you succeed (and get the kids involved)

Adopting a plant-based diet is repeatedly shown to be the best individual action you can take to reduce your carbon footprint and fight climate change. Along with improving your health and reducing the suffering of countless animals.
In the real world though, switching your entire diet isn't easy. If you aren’t ready to give up meat yet, there are alternative solutions. Rules to eat by that don’t disrupt your life, but also increase the positive impact you have on reversing climate change.
