Hey Green Junkie,

The kitchen is one of the most wasteful rooms in our home. Between food waste, cooking waste, and all the foil, plastic wrap, and parchment paper - we are creating a lot of waste every time we prepare meals.

It can feel daunting to tackle kitchen waste since so much of what we use feels essential. But today, my friend Anne Marie has something to say about reducing waste in the kitchen.

She is sharing some amazing tips and tricks to help us learn better and more sustainable ways to prepare food, use food and store our food as well as how we can cook, a little more green. 

In this episode I will touch on the following:

• How to reduce waste in your kitchen
• How to stop wasting certain parts of your food
• The benefits of the freezer in reducing food waste
• How to be creative with storing your food so it doesn’t go to waste
• The impact your green choices have on everyone else

Hey Green Junkie,

I’m sure you’ve heard a bunch of talk about toxins in cleaning products, makeup, beauty products, etc. 

There are no shortages of alternatives to some of our favorite products but how do we know if those are safe? How are supposed to be able to trust “green” products when so many regulations allow companies to mask toxic ingredients?

I turned to the expert and leader of the Toxic Chemical Rebellion, who didn’t just coin that cheeky term but also built a company that teaches us about toxic-free products and offers safe and trusted alternatives for our homes.

In this episode I will touch on the following:

• What is the toxic chemical rebellion
• How toxic products are actually a social justice issue
• The difference between the EU and Canada/United States when it comes to environmental safety
• The ins and outs of PVA
• Are laundry strips still a good alternative
• Important ingredients to avoid
