In a world where consumerism and capitalism reign supreme, keeping track of your carbon footprint is almost impossible, let alone reducing it. But Beth Craig proved that anything is achievable with the right mindset by adopting a carbon-negative lifestyle. Joining Corinna Bellizzi, the Founder of Integrity Hero shares how avoiding carbon resulted in so many positives in her life. She started to eat healthier, free herself from overwhelming debt, and get rid of lavish things that only caused her unnecessary pain. Beth explains why gratitude and giving back are the main elements of starting a carbon-negative lifestyle, which she expresses by joyfully supporting charities of her choice.
