Summer 2025 Book Recommendations (Kitchen Edition)

Food waste is an area of global concern. Not only does wasted food waste resources and money, but it releases greenhouse gases which contribute to climate change. Not only that, but wasting food is an ethical issue when so many people around the world are food insecure. Because of these issues, I’ve dedicated this year’s book recommendations list to highlighting food-focused books I hope will inspire you, whatever your diet may be.

Sustainable Bingo

Happy earth month, everybody! This year for earth month, I made a series of environmentally focused bingo sheets to inspire people of all ages.

The issues impacting our changing world are vast, and that can make living sustainably feel daunting for a lot of people. But I think the varied nature of climate issues can actually be used to our advantage. While few people can live their lives completely sustainably, I believe everyone can make eco-friendly shifts in at least a few areas of their lives. With that in mind, I designed 3 sets of Bingo Sheets to introduce positive climate actions to people as young as 3 years old. My hope is that individuals who complete these bingo sheets will look at their daily actions and realize that they have power in their lives to make better choices for themselves, their communities, and their planet. Enjoy!

Ten Things (April)

It’s hard to believe four months have passed since I started this series. Here is the next installment in my Ten Things series, where I share ten sustainable actions or habits I’ve done throughout a given month to live more sustainably.

Ten Things (March)

Every choice we make has an environmental impact. Because of that, I’ve started this series to show how I choose to make more sustainable choices every day. This is the third installment in the series. Enjoy!

Ten Things (February)

Living sustainably is all about the choices we make throughout our lives. That’s why I’ve started a year long series detailing habits and actions I’ve incorporated into my life to live more sustainably. This is the second installment in the series. Enjoy!

Ten Things (January)

Living sustainably is all about the choices we make. It isn’t accomplished in one day or in one action, but rather in many actions performed over a lifetime. That’s why I’m going to start a year long series where I detail ten sustainable actions/habits I’ve done that month to lower my environmental impact. Some of these habits are done daily, others occasionally, but they are all done with the intention of living more mindfully and sustainably. My hope is that this monthly series will illuminate how varied sustainable actions can be, and how life and habits can shift with the seasons.

Summer 2023 Book Recommendations

Educating ourselves on environmental topics is an important step in solidifying our reasoning and encouraging our actions. I’ve put together a list of 5 books I’ve read recently and enjoyed immensely; these books cover a variety of topics and include both one-time and ongoing sustainable actions.

Vegan…ish

My family and I just got back from a road trip through South Dakota. While it was fun, it’s always an eye opening experience to visit different and especially more rural areas than I’m used to. Different communities have varying access to things such as recycling, food variety and availability, public transportation, etc. Today I’d like to talk about how my diet changes when I travel and why.
