Ever feel like there's so much pressure to be perfect when pursuing sustainability, or don't even know where to begin?
Sometimes it can feel overwhelming to take it all in at once. Especially because most of us didn't learn any of it in school and we're figuring it out as we go. Mistakes are bound to happen. We'll know more in a year than we know now for sure. But if we're constantly worried that we're not doing enough, this is a habit that will be hard to keep.
SO. What to do?
Start somewhere. That long list of things 'you're probably supposed to be doing' is full of great ideas! Pick one that speaks to you and begin there. It'll get the ball rolling and you'll be on your way to becoming low waste in no time. Also - I don't know about you but I'm not a money magnet, so the bonus that many of these swaps are cost-effective is what makes them to easy to step into.
Where to Begin
1. Start by looking at habits already in practice.
Where is there excess? Which habits could you do without?
