Episode 3203:

Explore how minimalism and sustainability intertwine in Jenny Lee's insightful piece from HelloBrio.com, "Six Ways To Use Minimalism To Support a Zero Waste Lifestyle." Lee offers practical tips on reducing waste by prioritizing reuse and quality over quantity, illustrating how small changes in consumption can lead to a more sustainable lifestyle.

Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.hellobrio.com/blog/minimalism-zero-waste

Quotes to ponder:

"The beautiful thing about minimalism is that it naturally supports being zero waste - or nearo waste, as I like to call it."

"Reduce, reuse, recycle" is in that order for a reason. Reduce the amount of stuff you have and use."

"By repairing and cleaning your items, especially your clothing, you can make them last a lot longer."
