Hello and Welcome!

Hi, welcome to my blog. I’m Jordan Tate, a young adult woman living in the beautiful state of Maine. I earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Environmental Science in 2015 and have been working in the environmental field since. I’ll admit that while I know much about the ins and outs of sustainability, I find myself too often taking the easy and convenient options most readily available, which are usually the most wasteful.

Sustainability and environmental impacts of the individual have been in the spotlight now more than ever, with things like reusable straws, veganism, and electric vehicles becoming viral sensations. While these hot topics are extremely efficient in reducing impacts, there are many other ways to practice sustainability.

The pressure of social media and comparing ourselves to others can make sustainability feel like an overwhelming mountain to tackle. If you’re interested in learning more about the ways to reduce your impact, follow along in my journey towards reducing my ecological footprint one step at a time!
