In this episode, we look at how to live more sustainably.

Get excited because this is tiny leaps.

Big jink. Biggy. Welcome to another episode of Tiny Leaps.

Big Changes where I share simple strategies

you can use to get more out of your life.

My name is Greg Klunis, and in this episode,

we are looking at how to live more sustainably.

Now this isn't going to be about climate change though there are major conversations that could

happen around that. This isn't going to be about that. We are going to

look at how to be more sustainable in our own lives and why we should be, not just for the planet,

how it's actually going to affect our day-to-day lives as well.

Now before we jump into the episode today's episode was written by

Sophie Sumter so make sure you give her a holler, find her Instagram in the description of this episode,

as well as any resources we use in this episode.

Of course, we'll be linked in the description as well.

So the Mesozoic era is the age in which dinosaurs ruled the world,

composed of the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous periods.

65 million years ago, their extinction marked the beginning of major ecological and cultural transformations on our planet.

Today, we exist in what scientists have coined the Anthropocene, the root anthro, meaning human,

humanoid, human-like. Essentially, we're existing in a period of Earth's existence in which humans and our actions affect our landscape.

Our episode today is, like I said, not about climate change. While there's a lot to be said on this subject,

I'm not going to go around pretending that I'm an expert.
