  • We all commit to at least one change we’ll make for sustainability’s sake, and admit to a few non-sustainable practices we’re guilty of.
  • Since sustainability comes with a high price tag in many cases, we cover some affordable sustainable practices.

  • We’ve got some recommendations about how involved to get with the news surrounding federal elections, and where to focus that excess attention.
  • Across the pond, the people making the British Royal Family hip and interesting are… moving to sit at a cooler table. 
  • Get ready to snuggle up with our latest recommendations: “Jeopardy! The Greatest of All Time” (Andrew), Netflix’s “Dracula” (Laura), and the ‘Call Me by Your Name’ audiobook (Pam).
