Hi guys! I've spent the better portion of my morning trying to come up with an intro post, and so far, all I’ve decided on is that I am absolutely terrible at this. So, in spite of my inability to socially interact or introduce myself, here’s my terribly awkward, first-day-of-school introduction:

I’m Karissa! I am obsessed with the ocean, and if you ever need a sit-in for animal trivia night, I’m your girl. My obsession with nature pretty much started when I was 5 years old, watching Steve Irwin in “The Crocodile Hunter,” and I’ve been annoying my friends with wildlife facts ever since. Fast forward a few years and a few states later, and my infatuation with the ocean and the environment is only more ridiculous. Now, I try to be more sustainable in my habits, and get involved in ways that make sense for me.  My life can be pretty chaotic from living in 3 states in 4 years, so I’ve definitely had to get crafty in my ways of getting involved, and keeping up with eco-friendly habits.  

I’m always looking for tips and tricks on how to be better at this whole sustainability thing, so if there’s something that works well for you, let ya girl know🤙 Need help figuring out how to get started yourself? Message me! I love giving people advice on how to be green 💚 Mahalo

What to do instead of a balloon release?

🎈 Flying Wish papers  

The premise of a balloon release is to ‘let go’ so if you want to release something into the sky then a much less harmful thing to do is to write down messages on wish paper and then set them alight. It’s a small amount of ash and the paper will float into the sky.

🎈 Floating Flowers   Another way to give you the sense of letting go is to send something down a river or into the sea. To be eco-friendly though you want to be using natural materials. A really beautiful thing to do is to send flowers or petals down the river.

🎈 Seedballs   If you really want to be eco-friendly give everyone some seedballs. When the flowers come up it’ll be a lovely reminder of your loved one.

🎈 Plant a tree   Or why not plant a tree in someones honour? It’s also a lovely place you can visit when you want to remember that person, and over the years the tree will provide life to birds and insects and other wildlife. A true circle of life feeling. ------- Visit our website: https://zerowasteinitiative.com/ Source: Internet 🌳 Zero Waste Initiative - Less Trash More Life! 🌏 Let's Save The World While There's Still Time!

4 Easy Zero Waste Yoga Swaps

🌺 Plastic water bottle ➡️ Reusable bottle

Only 9.5% plastic bottles actually get recycled. The rest end up in landfills where they take hundreds of years to break down into smaller and smaller pieces and in the process leak pollutants into the soil and water.

🌺 Plastic bag for sweaty clothes ➡️ Silicone bag

Unlike plastic bags, there’s no petroleum, no PVC, no latex, and low-to-no chemical leaching in silicone. Silicone can be recycled, and once burned Silicon can be composted.

🌺 PVC/TPE/foam yoga mat ➡️ Natural tree rubber mat

This one is a little bit more of an investment. But is so worth it, especially if you practice regularly! There is no layer of separation between you and your yoga mat. What’s in your mat ends up on you. Most cheaper options available at sports stores and chain stores and online are made from combinations of toxic plastics and harsh chemicals.

🌺 Plastic wrapped power bars ➡️ Homemade smoothie in reusable bottle

After yoga session it’s so tempting to go for a packaged power bar — it’s quick, it’s easy, it’s yummy, BUT it comes in plastic. It ends up as waste that doesn’t go away. But with a little planning and prep, it’s totally doable to cut down on plastic-packaged bars.
