    Moving Towards Sustainability with Tilt©

    Greenwashing - the act of presenting products as eco-friendly but in actuality proves no effort in environmental impact has become very mainstream. We see it everywhere from the chocolate we eat, clothes we shop for, and even household items we buy. But what's the big deal? In today’s episode we dive into the consequences of these exploitative corporate acts, true sustainability and what it means to move sustainably.  And a bonus for this special episode,  we’ll present a cool sustainable  project: TILT (link here). The overall lesson of today’s episode is that "one is enough to make a ripple, but many makes a change." Anchor pod link*
