You asked: 3 sustainability questions - lightbulbs, bags & food

Welcome to a This or That episode!

I break down the least impactful options from things you’ve been asking about.

This episode is actually a repost, because some of you have sent in these questions - clearly, we all have choices that keep us up at night. And often, what we expect isn’t actually the truth!

This week’s selection has a pretty controversial topic, and one that maaay just surprise you.

See if you can guess the answers before I reveal them - and then let me know if you got them all!

In this episode let's cover:

What uses more energy, turning off lights or energy efficient bulbs?
What has less of an impact, paper or plastic bags?
What resources and processes are made to make paper bags?
What matters more, what you eat or where its from?
What parts of your food intake you should reduce to help lessen your impact? (Don't worry, I'm not telling you to completely give up your favourites.)

Thanks for joining me on this episode of Because Why?!

Mā te wā - see you next week.
