Today we are chatting with my girl, my internet friend, Maria also known by her social media handles as @livingplanetfriendly! 

Maria is a Western New York-based content creator and imperfect environmentalist who is passionate about the protection of our planet, sustainability, climate justice, and low-impact living.

Maria is a queen at content creation and shares all things from education on the climate crisis to influencing others to be conscious of their actions that impact the planet. She’s been doing this for a long time and recently got married!! So I felt like there is no better person to talk to about living sustainably when you live with other people!
