Today I chat with Whitney Leigh Morris about the space where eco-consciousness and finances collide.
Here's a preview:
[3:30] Think you can't afford to be eco-friendly? Think again
[6:00] $8 leggings from Target or a $35 pair from an ethical brand? It's complicated ...
[13:00] Electric vehicle? Heat pump? How to get in the habit of asking whether you *actually* need that big ticket eco-item
[16:00] Thoughts on replacing items that are in working condition for more energy efficient options
[19:30] Are carbon offsets really worth the money?
[26:30] What 'voting with your dollars' really means
