Waste Reduction Week: Things I no longer buy living low waste
Happy Waste Reduction Week fellow Canadians! I’ve been enjoying a bunch of random YouTube videos lately, including in the “things I no longer…” vein, and while I’m definitely not going to be starting a YouTube channel anytime soon (but I’ll never say never!) I’m loving a lot of these trends and want to write blog…

Friday Favorites
This week has actually been an excellent week! We have been having a staff retreat at work and it’s in person! I have gotten to meet so many people, I’ve made friends! I’ve never thought of myself as an extrovert, but I am so energised (but also exhausted) by this past week and all the…

Obsession: August 14
Professionally, this week was very overwhelming, I’m really hoping that after forest fire season things tone down for a bit at least, but probably we’ll just get straight into ice and winterstorm planning and the fourth wave of COVID so ugh. I’m glad to be busy and not bored, but building a department from nothing…

July Empties
This was a big month for using stuff up. Some of it makes sense, a few things I have been using since last November and some were purchases I had to make because I haven’t yet got used to having to be prepared and planning ahead to avoid using plastic/packaged products. This is a great…

April Empties
Compared to March it looks like I didn’t use anything up this month! Mostly, I just finished up some samples that I have had for several months. The nice thing about a Project Pan is that you actually do use those random things that you have accumulated over your years of purchasing. I do see…

Obsessions: April 24
I’m rounding out the Earth Week content with a themed obsessions post! From drag-tivism to my favourite shops in Ontario to access low waste products – these are a few of my favourite things. Instagram Obsession: @Pattiegonia I adore Pattie Gonia and Wyn Wiley equally. They raise such awareness for outdoors-people who don’t look like…

Mid-Week Procrastination: Earth Week Edition
We’re sticking to a theme this week (which means that next week’s MWP post will be super full of fun, random stuff- hint, hint). But the ultimate Earth Week procrastination item would be to grab some shoes, a garbage bag, and a set of tongs and a container (if you live in an area where…

Earth Week: Low Waste House Cleaning
I am a fastidious house cleaner. Maybe excessively so, I just find it so much more pleasant, but it has not escaped my desire to use less plastic. I think I have made great strides here, but there are still areas I can work on. I also don’t think that there is any increased costs…

Earth Week: Low Waste Personal Care
Earth Day is this Thursday! So this week I’m going to be going through the changes that I have made and the space that I still have for growth here. Today is personal care/beauty/hygiene. This is the area that I have made the most growth in and still have the most room for growth I…

March Empties
This series is to help keep me accountable in my journey to reduce my single-use plastic consumption and Project Pan progress. This empties post is a little different. I don’t have a nice big class photo of everything this month because I couldn’t bring myself to pack up and haul what is basically garbage across…
