Episode 04 - The Benefits of Living Small with Laura Fenton
Description
As a small-space and sustainable living expert, Laura Fenton has spent the better part of her career writing about homes within these contexts. Both a journalist and author, Laura's book The Little Book of Living Small along with her Substack newsletter Living Small, offer insight, ideas, actionable items and inspiration for those of us interested in this concept and lifestyle. Laura shares what she believes are the biggest levers that we can pull as individuals to lighten our carbon footprint. Not only does occupying a smaller space reduce your footprint, but she argues that less consumption is also key in this journey. She shares ideas for how we can all approach this notion of less consumption and why it is vital if we really want to effect change.
