    The most important clean swaps to make | Lindsay Dahl, sustainability & consumer protections expert

    “Any issue that becomes a lighting rod means it’s powerful. ‘Clean’ is a term that people now debate. Some people love it. Some people hate it. But to me, clean living is just about making choices that are good for people and the planet. Simple as that. And I don’t think there’s any superiority to the term, either,” says sustainability and consumer protection expert Lindsay Dahl, Chief Impact Officer at Ritual. In this episode of Clean Beauty School, mindbodygreen beauty director Alexandra Engler chats with Dahl about her decades-long career fighting for consumer protection, how to spot greenwashing red flags, and why radical traceability is the future of the well-being space.  This episode is sponsored by HyaCera.
