  3. Climate Change and the Rise of Wildfires

    2019. 10. 21.

    Climate Change and the Rise of Wildfires

    As more greenhouse gas emissions enter our atmosphere, climate change takes effect. Drier regions become drier, making wildfires more prevalent. Wildfires not only devastate the area of the fire, but also contribute to the high carbon levels in our air, further instigating climate change. It is a negative feedback loop that Taylor and Deanne discuss and share thoughts on we can slow it down.  See our website for privacy information.

    Sustainable Travel is Smart Travel

    Traveling makes up 8% of global carbon emissions annually! Taylor and Deanne discuss ways to get that number lower without reducing how often you take vacation. Think about where you stay, how you get there, where you shop and much more. It's these choices we make that can add up to create change. The travel industry is not slowing down, and neither is climate change, so travel smart: travel green. See our website for privacy information.

    Navigating The Recycling Maze: Plastic Waste

    It can be daunting to feel confident when recycling something that you're unsure of. Is this recyclable? Will it contaminate other recyclables? Does my recycling facility accept this? Should I just hold onto it until I know hoe to recycle it properly? There are so many rules when it comes to recycling so Deanne and Taylor break it down. The main rule: Check which MRF you are assigned and read their rules; you'll feel a lot more confident! See our website for privacy information.

  8. What's Actually Happening To The Great Barrier Reef

    2019. 09. 09.

    What's Actually Happening To The Great Barrier Reef

    The Great Barrier Reef is home to more than 1,500 species of fish, 411 types of hard coral, one-third of the world's soft corals, 134 species of sharks and rays, six of the world's seven species of threatened marine turtles, and more than 30 species of marine mammals. As Global Warming heats up our planet and the temperature of the water changes, the reef is put under great stress and cannot recover if it doesn't have enough time to heal before another stressful event. The reef is dying at a terrifying rate and faces great peril in the future if another heat wave strikes. The only cure is to reverse global warming and remove greenhouse gasses from the atmosphere.
