  • 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.
  • My first batch of #zerowaste homemade vegan + organic Nutella! And it's TO DIE FOR! I feel like this is what Nutella was meant to taste like 😻! • Our old, pre-ZW, entry-level high power blender overheated and broke the last time we tried to make nut butter 😭. It's partly our fault though, trying to make nut butter in the summer heat (36ºC/97ºF)🔥. As it's a local company (Bianco di Puro), we took the metro 🚉 to their HQ showroom (only 4.6km/3mi from where we live) to have it fixed—but it was beyond repair 😢. We left the motor block there, as they said they could still use it for parts and would recycle the rest. The blender jar we sold on the German equivalent of Craigslist. • Long story short, we bought a pre-owned Vitamix 💸, as these things are said to last a lifetime and beyond. Any Vitamix owners here? Any tips on care and maintenance to keep your Vitamix running for a very long time? So far I can tell the Vitamix is extremely powerful! • RECIPE loosely based on @backenmachtgluecklich.de‘s recipe💕 ⛔️❗️You will need either a high power blender (e.g. Vitamix, Blendtex, Omniblend, etc.) or a food processor + a lot of patience, because you will have to take a lot more breaks in between. Do NOT attempt to make this in a regular blender as this can break it❗️ 2 cups (~200g) of roasted almonds 2 1/2 (~225g) cups of roasted hazelnuts 4 tbsp (60ml) vegetable oil (we use sunflower seed oil, as it's more local than coconut oil) 4 tbsp cocoa powder 3 tbsp chocolate chips (just because we had some at home) 6 tbsp (60g) sweetener of your choice (we went with organic, locally grown beet sugar) 👉Put everything into your blender or food processor and blend until it turns into a paste. You might have to pause and scrape down the sides, or pause for a few minutes to let your machine cool down again. 👉I ran the Vitamix on max and used the temper to push the ingredients down towards the blades. It turned to a paste after not even a minute! After 1.5 min it was nut butter. I paused it for 1 min and blended for another min for a creamier consistency. (It took 5-10 min in our old blender) 👉 Enjoy 😋💕
  • Here comes a long-overdue #zerowaste #farmersmarket #groceryhaul post 🥬💕😋! • Sorry for not posting much for a while and especially lately! I have been taking more time for self care. As part of this, I have deleted one app after another, including WhatsApp and what not. (OK, that was a really bad pun 🤪🤓) • I turned off all notifications except for text messages and my calendar, left all group chats, and got some distance from social media. I love this community on IG so much, which is why I was constantly on here. I needed to learn that the world keeps spinning even when I’m not constantly posting or replying to questions. To learn it’s okay to be less digitally social. To focus on other work that had been piling up. • I’m glad I took time to declutter my digital life 📱. We rarely stop to think about it, but everything we do online also has an environmental impact 🏭🌫. Every single message or email we send 📧, everything we stream 🎞, every single search🔍. Even the files you keep in the cloud☁️. • The internet is a global network, which means the data we send is literally routed through multiple servers across this globe 🌏, each requiring energy ⚡️24/7. Here’s the thing: electronics are never produced sustainably. Brands like @fairphone do their best to minimize the impact, but are an extremely rare exception and it’s only smartphones so far. Most servers also don’t run on renewable energy. • How to minimize your carbon impact from your digital use: ► Don’t keep too many files online. The more we keep online, the more servers need to be online, sucking energy 24/7 so we have access to our files whenever we need them. Use cloud services only when necessary and delete emails from the server when you don’t need them anymore or copy them to folders on your computer (you can set these up in your email client). Back up your files on an external hard drive. ► Use @ecosia.org as your search engine. It’s a search engine that plants trees to offset the impact of your search 🌳, run by an NGO. ► Listen to music 🎵offline as often as you can instead of streaming it. ► Carbon-footprint-wise sending two emails equals one letter by 🐌 mail (source @swr3online)
