Hey all, welcome to the second video for this Earth month series! A thank you to GoClimate for sponsoring this video guide and be sure to take a look at the blog post for relevant links and additional resources for how to get started. This video is really just the tip of the iceberg as environmental sustainability is a complex matter, but I hope it gives you some ideas to start if you're new. simplybychristine.com/guide/sustainable-living-for-beginners

It's hard living sustainably with your family (in my case) but I remind myself that it's not an all or nothing process and that even the small things count 😊

Thanks for that video! I especially appreciate that you talked about how sustainable living is not only important for the natural environment but also for the well-being of people around the world. Such a good reminder of why we need to consider how we live and how we can practically do that. 🌱

It's a good reminder for me as a started to live a minimal and sustainable life. God bless😊👍

I’ve been a minimalist for past 6-7 years, and I’m constantly tweaking my perspective. Most of my possessions don’t have any duplicates and my wardrobe is minimal as well. I’ve been trying to minimize food waste, plan more and use what I have. The result is..I’m eating more healthy and more conscious of everything, that it involves. One area, I’ve realized I’m not minimalist is my surfboard collection. I do use all of them, but I’m always designing new models, selling one’s I don’t ride and purchasing new ones. Surfboards are highly environmentally toxic, and I want to stop this habit. Your “use what you have,” resonated with me. I can’t stop thinking about it, in a good way. I’m lucky that I have the ability, fitness and desire to enjoy it. But, now, I want to “not desire,” the need for more. And want/desire is something to look at, as it brings a lot of negativity and discontentment to one’s life. Keep bringing your journey…it does reach people. Thank you so much

Love your videos Christine! I wanted to add that indigenous populations thrived for thousands of years living in harmony with Mother Nature - colonization and capitalism (and as you mention here, the subsequent industrialization) within the past two hundred years has caused the incredible harm that we are now fighting against. Thank you for touching upon environmental racism! Excited for your next video!

I love your videos, and started following sustainable living, lot to learn and grow! Thank you Christine ☀️

your videos are so peaceful and slow - the b rolls are just...chef's kiss. thank you for the resources and adding that we need to advocate for communities just as much as the planet!

This is a great video, I hope many will watch. Thank you for caring about the mother earth, and advocating for her. ❤️🌏

We need more videos like this!! Se people can see how easy is to start this path!! Thanks for sharing your tips!

A rear rack could turn your bike into an awesome grocery getter. You can DIY some panniers from old reusable grocery bags.

Thank you for all the time and resources you put into your videos! 😊 Hope you and your family are doing well! Blessings to you...sweet, little cookie baker! 🍪

Thank you for sharing this video I really think you get it and it’s good reminders and it’s nice to listen and to be able to reflect and remember in what we can do for the best I really appreciate you spending your time and effort in doing this

Hi. First time viewer and new subscriber. I am inspired and look forward to more of your wisdom and inspiration. Thank you!

Hi Christine , I love your video as always, It's remind me as international relations student, the world also has a plan called SDG's Sustainable Development Goals that contain 17 aspect for our good living. It prove that the world as a community under the United Nations is taking a step further to sustainability too. Maybe it can be the idea for one of your next video .. XD

This video was a blastt n superbb! I have started my way to a more sustainable life. i even have my home veggies garden:)

Sending you a big hug from London. Love your videos

Thankq for the video actually tomorrow I'll have exam on sustainability in India. Unexpectedly you dropped this...!

Excellent video Christine, videos like these are much needed!

Sustainable living is being able to feed yourself and your homestead. For real tips on those subjects come check out the channel. While creating a lifestyle shown in this video is important, take it that extra step.

sometimes we just need christine after a LONG day.

Thank you for your video. I notice that you store your pantry items in refillable glass jars which I love and also do. I visit my local plastic free, refill store a couple of times a month. I really hate it when I see KZfaqrs and Instagrammers refilling glass jars from a plastic packaged just for the aesthetic and not refilling for the sustainable benefit.

love ur videos

As a Christian I believe that God has given us the ability and knowledge to care for the earth as He would want us to. Im a firm believer that our impact and influence will help make our planet a better temporary home for us and others until God recreates the perfect heaven and earth, until then, lets do our best to make planet earth safe and clean ❤.

Is go climate actually legit?

First month of offsetting free? Apart from the almost pointless offsetting idea, how does making a free donation make any sense? What are you donating? We're buying feelgood fluff thoughts and getting some free feelgood fluff thoughts, not so?
