And of course dipped our toes yet again in the pool of conspiracy theories.If you’re interested in learning more about climate change and reducing your impact I’ve listed some resources below that I have found particularly helpful:“An Inconvenient Truth”(duh)- Documentary“Before the Flood”- Documentary (you can find this baby on Youtube)“Racing Extinction”- Documentary“How to Stop Playing Into a Trash Epidemic This Year”- Article- https://www.mindbodygreen.com/articles/how-to-make-less-trash“25+ Tips to Reduce Your Carbon Footprint”- Article- https://cotap.org/reduce-carbon-footprint/Special Thanks to:"Scheming Weasel (faster version)" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0http://creativecommons.org/licenses/b...Music promoted by Audio Library https://youtu.be/2CapGaKMsWUChill Soul Rap Instrumental by Nkato https://soundcloud.com/nkatoCreative Commons — Attribution 3.0 Unported— CC BY 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/b...Music promoted by Audio Library https://youtu.be/sdfcUBhRlgsFor business inquiries please email: basicandbeyond.podcast@gmail.com
