We tend to indulge over the festive season, whether that's buying gifts or filling up the fridge, but without the right planning, unwanted presents and discarded leftovers can end up in landfill. How can you create a sustainable Christmas?

It's been a year to remember, or possibly forget. Either way, end-of-year festivities could take on an extra intensity this time around. But without a bit of planning, we can all end up throwing away unused food and unwanted gifts. Fear not, advice is at hand on how to stop this happening.

This episode is all about the small changes we can make that will make a big impact to help save our environment. Here at A Happy, Positive Life, our aim is to create a positive environment covering all aspects, including our natural world. I am speaking to a lovely guest, who is dedicated to protecting our environment by going zero waste. Erin Rhoads (aka The Rogue Ginger) is the author of two books called ‘waste not' and ‘waste not everyday' that show us how we can all make a big difference by throwing away less. Through various talks, workshops, podcasts, posts, blogs and of course books, Erin has educated thousands on the importance of reducing waste, simplifying our lives and enjoying ‘moments' over ‘things'. In this episode, Erin also provides us with some simple tips and tricks that will help us get started in reducing our waste to help keep our beautiful planet clean. After you've listened to today's episode, I would love to hear your thoughts!

Maybe you’ve done this before: typed into Google, “Where can I buy glass bottle milk?” or “What local butchers will accept my battered tupperware?”. If you have, it’s likely you’ve stumbled upon The Rogue Ginger.Erin Rhoads is a proud red head whose simple question, “Why is the world filled with plastic?”, changed the course of her life.Since 2013, this down-to-earth mum from Melbourne has been blogging about how to reduce plastic and waste, and live a more eco-friendly existence. On her website you’ll find years worth of zero-waste resources, amazingly curated lists on where to shop waste-free and wildly practical information about making the change - with a notable absence of dogma. Our conversation with Erin goes beyond waste reduction to encompass the psychology of change, on-boarding friends and family with your belief system (or not), localism vs. globalism and what true wealth looks like. It’s a laid back, tea-with-a-friend style chat that’ll leave you with a warm sense of solidarity - and renewed enthusiasm for making positive change. SHOW NOTESErin highlights the importance of sharing our stories of joy and contradictions while we embark on change - so it doesn't feel impossible for others to follow.Finding ways to create uplifting and engaging challenges for individuals (rather than dutiful misery).As consumers, our voices are loud. Erin gives us ideas for sharing our thoughts about how companies can do better (in ways that are actually effective).Practical ideas for actioning your beliefs.The merits of Localism vs. Globalism.Why it’s worth developing a sense of obligation within our communities to bring about lasting change.How giving people tools (particularly kids) is a great way to engender hope and positive action: food growing, seed saving, fire lighting and cooking are as important as maths.Connecting with your local council is a great starting point for blossoming changemakers.Why it’s time for communities to lead rather than waiting for governments to fill the gap.Have Australians ever faced real challenges collectively? This might impact our understanding (and appreciation) of community initiatives.The power of third parties like films, music, books and docos when trying to influence change in friends.How life as a new mother opened up a can of worms on her plastic-free mission.Ideas for overcoming the cyclical phases of new initiatives that sees initial traction followed by a dip in interest and engagement.‘Gamification’ as a possible way to incentivise community engagement.The value of initiatives that are easy to set up and participate in - but have far-reaching outcomes such as nature strip gardens and free food pantries.LINKS ABC’s War on Waste Plastic Free July The Clean Bin Project [documentary]An Inconvenient Truth [documentary]Bag It [documentary]“How to save the world” - Katie PatrickSupport the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/futuresteading)

In this episode we chat to Erin Rhoads, The Rogue Ginger, and find out what inspired her to start living a more sustainable life. She tells us how she started to reduce waste and how you can begin to do the same; how taking part in Plastic Free July changed her habits and why she couldn't go back; how heat draws out endocrine disrupters from plastic; swapping out single-use plastic items every day to reduce waste; valuing our farmers and the food they produce and so much more. Erin is the lady behind the popular Australian eco lifestyle blog and website 'Less waste, less plastic and sustainable living with 'The Rogue Ginger' with information on zero waste and plastic free living and tips on how to reduce plastic and rubbish every day. Erin went from eating plastic-packaged takeaway while shopping online for fast fashion, to becoming one of Australia's most popular eco-bloggers. She knows that small changes can have a big impact. Through Erin's pursuit to live plastic-free and zero-waste, she has learnt to eat real food, discover new skills, cut down her exposure to harmful chemicals, found joy in moments over everyday things and simplified her life, while saving money.

Zero waste campaigner Erin Rhoads from Rogue Ginger once famously put 18 months worth of her rubbish into a single glass jar.But Erin hasn’t always had a low waste lifestyle. In fact she says it used to be “fast food, fast living” kind. She’s shared her journey to reducing her impact on the environment through her blog The Rogue Ginger - one habit, one blog post at a time.Today Erin’s a sought-after writer and speaker. She was a consultant on ABCs War on Waste, and shares skills and practical help to hundreds at workshops, talks and forums, and founded Zero Waste Victoria and Plastic Bag Free Victoria.One of the things I love most about Erin is her complete honesty and transparency with the journey that she’s undertaken, and the emphasis on meaningful change. She acknowledges herself that she doesn’t always get it right, but that small steps every day can make an incredible difference over time.This conversation is an empowering one for anybody who wants to take small steps to make the world a better place.Enjoy!+Show notes:You’ll want to follow Erin online at The Rogue Ginger - I particularly love her Instagram accountErin’s book Waste Not is available nowThe Clean Bin Project documentary - or follow it on Facebook or TwitterBag It The MoviePlastic Free July - Facebook and TwitterWar on WasteShareWaste.com - community shared food waste and compostResponsible Cafes - promoting reusable coffee cupsBoomerang BagsIf you like this episode, you’ll love this episode with Tim Silverwood on the Power of Conscious Choice++Keep Listening:Sign up to our All Being Well’s newsletter - Mindful Mail - to receive updates on the best wellness news and resources from the web.Have you been enjoying All Being Well?

Many people have embraced waste-free shopping, with grocery stores switching plastic bags to reusable bags. But have you thought about other areas of your home? How about bathroom waste. Apparently Australians throw away 356 million plastic bottles a year, just from bathrooms! Erin Rhoads is an Eco-Lifestyle blogger, known as The Rogue Ginger. She explains how you can swap out your bottles, toothbrushes and plastic bath toys for more environmentally-friendly options.

Erin Rhoads has been living zero-waste since 2013. She runs the popular Australian eco-lifestyle website The Rogue Ginger and is the author of the 2018 book Waste Not.

Last week Brooke and Ben attempted to answer a listener question about dealing with eco-anxiety. That is, the pressure or frustration we feel when even our best intentions to minimise waste and tread lightly on the earth are thwarted by an errant plastic bag or forgetting to ask for no straw. In today’s episode Brooke chats with Erin Rhoads, who is undoubtedly more qualified to answer this question, as a zero-waste advocate and creator of The Rogue Ginger - a website that has both the coolest name and the most accessible and practical tips on living a zero-waste (or low-waste) life. Brooke and Erin go back to the moment (the movie, actually) that changed Erin from a mindless consumer to conscious advocate and why her journey towards zero waste began with very small and gradual changes (and why she believes yours should too). Erin answers a few questions that Brooke is consistently asked when it comes to living plastic-free, specifically: How can we avoid plastic wrapping when buying cheese? Is there an alternative for lunch wraps that doesn't require us to cook our own? How can we open up the low-waste conversation with suppliers, family and friends without making people feel judged? They also talk about the one simple change you can make today - regardless of where you are in your journey towards living plastic-free - as well as offering an encouragement to act rather than get angry. Head over to http://www.slowyourhome.com/203 for all the links to Erin’s website and social media, as well as all the resources mentioned in today’s episode. Erin is also part of the upcoming Live Life Simply Online Retreat and will be taking all attendees through the essentials of zero-waste living. Registration is open now so be sure to secure your place before October 22, 2017. The retreat opens its doors on October 23 and Brooke, Erin and co can’t wait to have you!

It's hostful time again, and this week Brooke and Ben answer three very different listener questions and launch the big, exciting project they've been working on for the past few months. It's a good day all round! First up, Rachael asks about coping with eco-anxiety - a great term which encapsulates the frustration that results when we try to make positive changes to our home and the waste we create, only to be constantly reminded by how imperfect our efforts are. It's an obstacle that many people come across and Brooke and Ben give their insights in to how to let go of the perfectionism and embrace smaller, more consistent changes.  Brooke then puts on her ranty pants as she and Ben discuss the inanity of tit-for-tat holiday gift giving. You know the gifts for the extended family and friends, the office Christmas party, the neighbourhood get-together? Those ones really grind Brooke's gears and today she and Ben talk about how to best opt out of those gift giving arrangements if at all possible, and what crap-free options are available for the situations where a gift is still appropriate. It's a good time of year to start considering the impact of all these novelty gifts, as we edge closer to the holidays.  Finally, Kerry asks Brooke and Ben what's most recently made them laugh uncontrollably. Brooke's answers are absurd and Ben's are a little closer to home!  Months ago Brooke and Ben mentioned a new project they were working on in response to the recent listener survey results, and today they're finally ready to put it out in to the world! The Live Life Simply Online Retreat is the first of its kind and brings together the wisdom and expertise of 13 mindfulness, simplicity and slow living experts into one blissful six-week online retreat.  The retreat is super practical and designed to help you learn at your own pace, in your own home. You can practice yoga and meditation, uncover your purpose, learn the essentials of low tox and zero waste living, dive deep in to mindfulness, slow money, creating a rhythm that works for your daily life, plus loads more - all at a time and pace that works for you.  Join Brooke and Ben, plus previous podcast guests, Jessica Murnane, Rachael Kable, Alexx Stuart, Kelly Exeter, Janell Burley Hoffman, Carolyn Tate, Kevin Janks and Dr Sarah McKay, as well as Erin Rhoads, Sam Doove and Lauren Verona from Zenko Yoga.  The line-up is incredible and we can't wait to see you there!
