I always think of what Zero Waste Home (a blog I love) has said about approaching a zero waste lifestyle. The first step is REFUSE--refuse to bring these items into your life, which is so so so important, if not. Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and Rot. I love how Zero Waste and Minimalism complement each other!

I think Zero Waste is about "throwing out" less, and Minimalist is about "bringing in" less. And for me both complement each other very well :)

I discovered Minimalism through my approach to studying and practicing Zero Waste (maybe a few years later). I cannot think of a way to separating the two in my life, they are so intertwined.

This was great. Deeply personal and resonating. I got a great deal out of it. I imagine you guys are fully aware of the groundswell your message is having. I have read so many of the recommended authors and guests you have featured, and I continue to hone my true north. Thank you, Brothers.
