Description
Want to live ethically? Or organically? How about just sustainably? And without drastically changing your lifestyle or blowing up your bank account?My Green Podcast with Jarvis, Jo, and Katie is the show about accessible, sustainable living. They bring you tips on healthy living and the latest environmental news. They’ll let you know what food and products you can buy that won’t cost the earth – literally or figuratively – and will be joined by special guests who tell us what they do every day to help save the planet. Jo Wood, Katie Hill and Jarvis Smith have been doing the green thing for a long time, it’s part of their lives and business. Being green is easier than most people think. The problem is when we hear things like ‘carbon emissions’ and ‘stopping the temperatures rising by 2 degrees’ its’ difficult for us all to understand how we can make a difference. The good news is we can and if we all do our bit the impact this will have is huge and could solve a crisis in the time frame required. My Green Podcast will simplify the climate change topics and offer simple solutions to current issues. Most people want to change so we can help ourselves the planet and our future generations but most of us don't know where to start. As Jo Katie and Jarvis have been living a sustainable lifestyle for over a decade they will share green nuggets, slippery sideshows and hard core realism you can embed into your lives today. Stopping using plastic is not gonna fix the problem, so what is? Listen in to find out.
