About the Episode
The standard of living currently enjoyed in the Global North is simply not sustainable. In order for our children (and all children) to have a healthy future, it is critical that we raise them to consume less. In this inspiring conversation, Leslie and Jennifer Hetzel, host of the podcast “Sustainably Geeky” explore the reasons for and the joy of making more sustainable choices in our families.
