Your Sustainability Questions, Answered
Many listeners write to me with compliments and criticisms; occasionally, listeners reach out with questions, too. I collected some of the most pressing queries from both personal messages and public ones in the show’s closed Facebook group. On this week’s episode I answer 5 of the most common sustainability questions you listeners have asked me.
Here’s a preview of today’s show:
[1:40] Why are silicone products preferable to plastic ones?
[4:11] Why has plastic become so popular?
[7:14] What’s the most sustainable toilet paper: recycled or bamboo?
[16:15] Why do people buy things to be sustainable?
[20:10] What are some innovative uses for mason jars?
 
Happy listening!
