Summary: <br> “There are people who are on the hustle; (they’re) worried about making rent. They’re not thinking about their trash.”<br> It’s sad but true: Sustainable living is exponentially harder for low-income individuals.<br> That’s because eco-consciousness can be expensive; it’s a drain on mental energy + time, too.<br> My guest this week is Ghoncheh Azadeh: she’s a sustainability warrior who comes to our conversation armed with challenges specific to eco-minimalism on a budget.<br> First, our conversation is theoretical:<br> – Is environmental consciousness an upper class privilege?<br> – Why do sustainable choices often carry a price tag?<br> Then we get practical: Ghoncheh makes eco-minimalism work for everyone with common-sense, incremental strategies.<br> My guest this week has a persistence + passion about her that’s envigorating.
