Kelsey is in the hot seat today as Erica interviews her about practicing sustainability at home. Along the way we have a nostalgic moment with Ferngully, offer lots of practical tips, and give you permission to do your best. Just for Friends of the Show, Kelsey shares the unsustainable things she sees people doing that she wants to correct (but is usually too nice to do so).
