4 Zero-Waste-Tipps für mehr Nachhaltigkeit während der Schwangerschaft

  • We joined the #globalclimatestrike in Frankfurt yesterday—with 40,000 other people ✊💚!!! • 1.4 million people took to the streets in Germany! The movement is growing!! The first global climate strike in March this year counted 1.6 million participants worldwide. According to the organizers a total of 4 million people were on the streets around the world yesterday, to demand political change!! • Yet on the very same day, the German government agreed on ridiculous and ineffective climate actions. 🤮 • The less politicians and industry leaders are willing to implement change, the more we will take to the streets. Easy as that.
  • Imagine how surprised we were when we went to the farmers market this weekend, just to find out... There was no farmers market! 😂⁠ •⁠ As it turned out, it got cancelled to make even more space for the #gamescom (supposedly the world's largest gaming event with almost 400,000 visitors). Totally forgot about the gamescom, even though you could see cosplayers everywhere in the city! If I ever cosplayed, I'd probably go as Murrz (@murrzstudio) by the way 😁! I'd SO wear her cat t-shirt IRL too by the way 😹!⁠ •⁠ Anyway, as our fridge was empty, we went to a health food store instead, because we know that particular store always has this 50% off section with produce that is about to go bad. Organic produce on a budget AND you prevent food from being thrown out, 😈🔥 yeah!⁠ •⁠ So about 50% of what we bought was from the 50% off rummage boxes—which is why you are looking at half a pound of wrinkly chili peppers 🌶🔥🤪. At home, we made a large smoothie and washed and froze the grapes. The chili pepper we put on plates to sun dry them ☀️ to make chili flakes that I can use for my #zerowaste vegan kimchi! (🔗 Link to recipe in bio!)⁠ ⁠
  • I sometimes watch these “I went zero waste/vegan/minimalist for a week” videos, even though I probably shouldn’t 😅. If you ask me, it’s all about cultivating sustainable habits—and that’s not something that’s going to happen overnight! • It took us ~2 years to transition from “I could NEVER give up 🧀/🍗” to “oh, we’re actually vegan now!” It took us another ~1.5 years to go from “let’s be a tad more conscious when it comes to single-use 💩” to “holy 🐄, our trash actually fits into a friggin’ jar!” And I think we had been decluttering for ~6 years to reduce our belongings to what some people have called “spartan.” • What I have learned on our (accidentally) transformational journey is: 1. Lifestyle changes take time, and everyone has their own pace. 2. It gets easier over time to a point where it all happens automatically! • Going zero waste or vegan overnight is like suddenly telling me to go run a marathon tomorrow 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️! Without prior training, there’s just no way it will be a pleasant experience—and I probably won’t be able to get to the finish line! 👻 • These self-experiments are designed to only experience the rocky first steps. They even make it more difficult by trying to go all in, instead of easing in! • Just like with sports and exercise, it makes the most sense to start small and to move on to more difficult exercises after you have build up your strength and stamina! And of course there is a learning curve📈. You need to get to know yourself and learn what works and what does not. • Hanno and I never intended to go ZW, and we thought we’d never be able to become vegan either. But because we started with tiny baby steps and only moved on to the next step when we felt ready, it never felt daunting. And even today, we have good days, and we have bad days! • Like today, when I forgot both my container AND dish towel, but was so hungry I just needed to grab a snack. So I just asked them to put the bread roll onto my clean hanky! But a few years ago I wouldn’t have thought of that, or would have been too shy and would have walked out with a paper bag. 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️ #zerowasteIRL
  • ZERO WASTE PET CARE 🐶💕 No, I didn’t adopt this cutie 😍🐶💕! Wish I did though 😝! This is pup Taavi from @sustainablejungle! Joy and Lyall are AMAZING dog parents!! And I am extremely grateful that they agreed to share their zero waste pet care experience and tips on my blog 💚!!! 👉Link in bio👈!! I learned so mu ch, and definitely feel better prepared for the day when we can adopt a pet from the shelter. • Make sure to follow them and also to check out their blog, Sustainable Jungle! They have more tips on zero waste pet care (and many more adorable pup pics 😍) you can check out. But psssst… Disclaimer! If you are into urban/apartment gardening and an indoor composting nerd like I am 🤓, you’ll spend a looot of time on that blog and end up with even more plants than before 🌿😇! Oh, and if you’re into podcasts (who isn’t??), then make sure to also subscribe to their podcast! • Do you also have a pet and try to reduce the trash in that department? What are yours tips? And any cat 🐈 parents here? We’d also like to have a cat (one day) and appreciate every tip you have 🙏💚!
  • Here comes our most recent #zerowaste #farmersmarket #groceryhaul 🥒🍎🥬🍅🍆😋!⁠ •⁠ We are extremely lucky we have access to an organic (!) farmers market, where most of what is sold is actually grown by the farmers themselves and not just vendors reselling things.⁠ •⁠ Granted, the farmers market is very small with just 2 farmers, 2 bakers, 1-2 butchers, and a dairy stall. And if you're vegan like us your options are limited to the 2 farmers and 1 baker, but hey, that's all you usually need, really.⁠ •⁠ The only thing we miss at the farmers market are fruits. The farmers happen to not grow a lot, and except for the pretty sour first harvest apples all the fruits sells out super fast.⁠ •⁠ So this week we went to a health food store that has a 50% off box with produce that is about to go bad and got plums, apricots, bananas, peaches, nectarines, and a mango. I forgot to take a photo though, because we chopped up and froze most of it right away, and what wouldn't fit into our freezer we made into a smoothie. Ah, life is sweet (pun intended 🤪)!
  • Let’s talk about our individual carbon footprint 💨👣 and privilege 👑! • A study by the German Environment Agency @umweltbundesamt found that a lot more higher educated, higher income people rate themselves as being eco-conscious, while lower income folks said they didn’t really think about it much. • HOWEVER, the people with a lower income had the SMALLEST carbon footprint by a margin, while the wealthy tree huggers had quite large carbon footprints despite their efforts to live sustainably. • This is because people generally underestimate the four big points: ✈️ Air travel 🚙 Car 🏠 Living space 🐄 Meat • ❗️According to the study, buying organic produce 🍎, recycling religiously ♻️, having a green energy plan/solar panels ☀️, or owning more energy-efficient household appliances just cannot offset the horrendous environmental effects caused by flying, having a newer, larger car, or a bigger house (that uses more energy and resources to maintain)❗️ • People often say that you need to be privileged to have a sustainable lifestyle. The truth, however, is very different. • Worldwide, it’s the poorest of the poor that have the smallest carbon footprint, simply because they lack the resources to participate in the truly destructive big four ✈️🚙🏠🐄. Yes, they might be forced to create more trash or cannot go vegan due to a lack of access to fresh, local, package-free produce—but overall, they are NOT the ones draining this planet. • What you can do to truly cut down your carbon emissions: ❌✈️ Don’t fly, it’s the most environmentally catastrophic thing we can do on an individual level 🚌🚉 Use and support your local public transit. The more people use it, the more municipalities will invest in it 🚲🚶‍♀️If possible, walk and bike as much as you can. It’s great exercise. For us, we consider everything within 2km/1,25mi walking distance (~30 mins), and everything within 8km/5mi bikable in our regular daily life. 🏠 Downsize. The larger your space, the more energy it eats up—day in, day out. And of course: Insulation, insulation, insulation!! 🌱 Reduce your consumption of animal products. Go for lentils and beans instead, they’re inexpensive and filling.
