Things You Didn't Know You Can Compost Composting isn't just for fruit and veggie scraps. There are plenty of surprising household items that can break down naturally and keep waste out of landfill. Pet Hair & Human Hair – Full of nitrogen, hair helps balance your compost pile. Nail Clippings – As long as they're free from polish. Cardboard Toilet Rolls & Egg Cartons – A great source of carbon (browns) for your compost bin (most people don't put enough browns/carbon into their compost and it gets stinky, so this is a great accessible one) Natural Wine Corks – Chop them up for faster breakdown. (Avoid plastic-based ones!) Used Paper Towels & Napkins – As long as they're not soaked in chemicals or grease. Coffee Grounds & Tea Bags – Tea bags must be plastic-free (many contain microplastics). Wooden Toothpicks & Bamboo Skewers – Break them into smaller pieces for easier decomposition. Old Cotton & Wool Socks – Only 100% natural fibres (no synthetics or elastane- unless the elastane is plant based, which is quite rare). Dead Houseplants & Cut Flowers – If they haven't been treated with pesticides. Pencil Shavings & Uncoated Paper Scraps – A good source of carbon-rich material.

Living a sustainable lifestyle can often put you at odds with the mainstream perspective, as Kate Hall knows well. So how do you navigate disagreements and deal with other people's opinions when trying to live up to your values? Here are a few tips from Kate: Lead with Positivity Don't instigate or engage in conversations about sustainability unless they were started or consented by the other person - otherwise you'll end up sounding like you're 'preaching'. Most likely more change and cohesion will come when you simply go about your life and others observe you. Focus on What You Can Control Put your energy into the changes you can make, rather than getting caught up in others' opinions. Grace for Yourself & Others Give yourself and those around you room to learn and grow without judgment. Build a Supportive Circle Surround yourself with people who support or share your values (what my current tour is all about!) but avoid echo-chambers where everyone thinks the same. Keep a balance of diverse perspectives. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
With the school year kicking in soon, the time has come to complete the costly task of back-to-school shopping.

Deep clean old lunch boxes, sharpen short pencils, and repair cracked rulers. Embrace resourcefulness - clever parenting and saves money! Treasure Hunt for Supplies Before you visit a store, turn finding existing school supplies into a fun game with the kids.

Unique and vintage stationery can often be found here. Shop at places like All Heart Store who have high-quality second-hand stationery and office supplies - second hand and supporting an amazing charity. Ditch the Plastic Avoid plastic adhesive covers; try reusable options like DIY fabric covers. Opt for Sustainable lunchware Invest in eco-friendly options like Bento Ninja's stainless steel lunch boxes with dividers to minimize single-use packaging.

While scouring the Sonoran Desert for objects left behind by migrants crossing into the United States, anthropologist Jason De León happened upon something he didn't expect to get left behind: a human arm, stripped of flesh. This macabre discovery sent him reeling, needing to know what exactly happened to the body, and how many migrants die that way in the wilderness. In researching border-crosser deaths in the Arizona desert, he noticed something surprising. Sometime in the late-1990s, the number of migrant deaths shot up dramatically and have stayed high since. Jason traced this increase to a Border Patrol policy still in effect, called “Prevention Through Deterrence.” First aired in 2018 and over three episodes, Radiolab investigates this policy, its surprising origins, and the people whose lives were changed forever because of it. Part 2: Hold the Line After the showdown in court with Bowie High School, Border Patrol brings in a fresh face to head its dysfunctional El Paso Sector: Silvestre Reyes. The first Mexican-American to ever hold the position, Reyes knows something needs to change and has an idea how to do it. One Saturday night at midnight, with the element of surprise on his side, Reyes unveils ... Operation Blockade. It wins widespread support for the Border Patrol in El Paso, but sparks major protests across the Rio Grande. Soon after, he gets a phone call that catapults his little experiment onto the national stage, where it works so well that it diverts migrant crossing patterns along the entire U.S.-Mexico Border. Years later, in the Arizona desert, anthropologist Jason de León realizes that in order to accurately gauge how many migrants die crossing the desert, he must first understand how human bodies decompose in such an extreme environment. He sets up a macabre experiment, and what he finds is more drastic than anything he could have expected. Special thanks to Sherrie Kossoudji at the University of Michigan, Lynn M.

Join Ashley this week on the Bizzimumzi podcast as she welcomes the founder of 'The Full Freezer', Kate Hall. Delve deep into Kate's personal journey that began with a health scare and evolved into a passion for freezer food. A passion that was a legacy from her mother, and a coping mechanism during challenging life moments - from health crises to the early chaotic days of motherhood. In 2006, a blood clot changed the trajectory of Kate's life. However, it was during these trials she discovered the unexpected comforts of a home-cooked meal, even when miles away from home. Relive the heartwarming moment when Kate opened her door, thinking someone's dinner smelled divine, only to realize it was her own dinner, all thanks to her Mum's foresight of a stocked freezer and a trusty slow cooker. Travel through time with Kate as she navigates the birth of her children, the highs and lows of parenting, and the challenges that came with it. From moving houses with a newborn to the stress of managing home-cooked meals for her family while juggling two young kids. But it's not all challenges and obstacles. Ashley and Kate share light-hearted moments, giggling about how tough parenting is, especially when starting a business. They chat about the unexpected joys and lightbulb moments that can come from adversity and the silver linings in the clouds of parenting. Kate shares her journey into becoming a freezer aficionado, how she researched the health aspects, the environmental concerns, and ultimately how she turned her passion into 'The Full Freezer' business.
