We might have a thing for alliteration, but we definitely have a thing for conservation! Tune in this week because Amanda and Haylee are sitting down to discuss how land conservation is good for the land and the people...and also good for profit. (!!) When land is conserved, or even the smallest changes made to how land is maintained, both people and planet can profit from a symbiotic relationship built on understanding the land. This conservation strays away from the typical 'hands off' hippie extremist definition of land conservation, and moves in the direction of working together to create healthy land and happy people.

Happy New Year everyone! This episode is a fun one where we discuss the role that innovation plays in advancing sustainability.

This weeks episode is about the how sustainable housing can be used to create a happier, healthier society.

This episode is a great starting point when discussing big ideas that may not seem directly linked to sustainability, but surely are once the the triple bottom line approach is used.

Join Haylee and Amanda for this informative, fun, and short chat about power and electricity through each phase of it's production, distribution, and consumption. Stay sustainable folks!

Welcome back, sustainababes, sustainaballers, and sustainatheys!

Tune in this week as Haylee and Amanda discuss their dreams and desires to create a perfect transit system, and what that could look like in society. 

Another whopper of an episode packed with information (and cake metaphors) about the trajectory of the automobile industry as electric vehicles become more mainstream. Amanda and Haylee separate vehicles into three distinct categories; personal, public/service, and freight, then do a walk through analysis of each. They finish out the episode by putting cars and the automobile industry through the infamous three pillars (cake layers) of sustainability. Tune in for an awesome conversation!

Amanda and Haylee are back again to talk infrastructure - what it means, and how to do it sustainably. Listen in to hear them explain the why's, what's and how's, and then put infrastructure through the wringer. And by wringer, we mean the three pillars of sustainability.

This series will help you understand what The Plan is trying to accomplish, and why it is so very necessary for our people and planet.

In this weeks episode, Haylee and Amanda take a moment to check in about how they're feeling, how this year has been, and how to cope.
