Sustainable Shopping Is An Oxymoron


Listen Later

Sustainability has the reputation of being, well, expensive. When money's tight, how do modern families decide what to prioritize with their dollars? 

Today I chat with Whitney Leigh Morris about the space where eco-consciousness and finances collide.


Here's a preview:

[3:30] Think you can't afford to be eco-friendly? Think again

[6:00] $8 leggings from Target or a $35 pair from an ethical brand? It's complicated ... 

[13:00] Electric vehicle? Heat pump? How to get in the habit of asking whether you *actually* need that big ticket eco-item

[16:00] Thoughts on replacing items that are in working condition for more energy efficient options

[19:30] Are carbon offsets really worth the money?

[26:30] What 'voting with your dollars' really means
