Magazinele zero waste s-au extins deja în marile orașe precum București, Cluj-Napoca, Timișoara, Brașov, Iași sau Oradea. În majoritatea poți cumpăra alimente – de la semințe la fructe și legume –, detergenți sau produse de igienă vrac, fără ambalaje de unică folosință. Aceste modele reduc semnificativ cantitatea de deșeuri per gospodărie. Tu doar te prezinți cu recipiente proprii și plătești cât cântărești.  Nu-ți face procese de conștiință dacă nu poți face tranziția deodată, nu e simplu să mai integrezi un magazin în rutina ta de cumpărături, însă pe termen lung vei avea mai puține sticle, punguțe și cutii rămase prin casă.

Is zero-waste backpacking possible?Well, in a lot of ways, yes, and in some ways, not really. We saw this play out when a previous guest of ours, one of our earliest guests, actually in episode 37. In that episode, Ana Lucía (aka Eco) explains how in 2021 she set out to complete a zero-waste thru-hike of the Pacific Crest Trail.Now, a few years later, in episode 212 of the Outdoor Minimalist podcast, I am sitting down with Alisha McDarris to discuss her experimental zero-waste backpacking trip challenge. Alisha is the founder of Terradrift.com and the site's accompanying YouTube channel, where she and her husband Josh share gear reviews, outdoorsy how-tos, and guides, including a full video covering her zero-waste backcountry trip. She is also a freelance journalist, filmmaker, and photographer who specializes in writing about sustainable travel and outdoor adventure for publications like Popular Science, Backpacker, Outside, Roadtrippers, and more.Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/outdoor.minimalist.book/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.theoutdoorminimalist.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@theoutdoorminimalistBuy Me a Coffee: ⁠⁠⁠https://buymeacoffee.com/outdoorminimalist⁠⁠⁠Listener Survey: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://forms.gle/jd8UCN2LL3AQst976⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠------------------TerradriftWebsite: https://terradrift.com/zero-waste-backpacking-tips/YouTube: https://youtu.be/4zirOxMnFk0?si=7n6nybE4ze06eHj0Episode 37: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/outdoor-minimalist/id1586174667?i=1000563241947Listen to our first interview with Alisha on how to identify gear needs for backpacking: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/outdoor-minimalist/id1586174667?i=1000619154104

Recently, I heard neuroscientist Emily McDonald share something that stopped me in my tracks on Jay Shetty's On Purpose podcast: one major reason we get stuck in procrastination is because we're “chasing cheap dopamine.”It's that quick-hit comfort—constant snacking, scrolling, or little rewards—that keeps us from doing the deeper, more nourishing things that actually leave us feeling accomplished.For me, my version of cheap dopamine was taking myself out to dinner… Even when I could've been home working on personal projects that truly matter to me—and eating just as beautifully.That's where Recipes 4 Survival continues to show up as something constant and grounding in my life. More than a job, more than a routine—it fulfills me in a way that's hard to describe until you've felt it yourself.And this dish, melted cabbage, is the perfect example.It's simple, economical, and deeply comforting—and the joy and sense of accomplishment I get from making it far exceeds anything I would've had to forage for in the bitter cold anyway.Now, don't get me wrong: I absolutely believe in treating yourself. I love dining out, and when I do, I order whatever I wouldn't make at home.But if you're thinking, “Sure, you can cook like this because you're a chef,” I promise—I can coach you in a way that makes cooking at home feel not only doable but genuinely empowering.So let's get into it.This is a fabulous one-pan dish: silky, oven-finished cabbage wedges with a bold tahini–balsamic–quince dressing. No fancy knife skills, no fuss — just a beautiful ritual you can make your own.In this episode:choosing to cook at home as an act of self-carecutting, searing, and braising cabbage wedgesbuilding a light bouillon with a little chili heatmaking a tahini–balsamic–quince dressingoven timing, glazing, and finishing uncoveredserving ideas: rice, toasted baguette, or straight from the panreflections on comfort, routine, and mindful eatingand an open question: nuclear winter vs. global warmingIf you have any questions or want more recipes and guidance, visit recipes4survival.com.MINDFUL MEALS & SUSTAINABLE LIVING - The Art of Living an Elevated Lifestyle

 From Trash to Treasure: The Art of Conscious Living Through Recycling, Reusing & Kitchen Garden MagicJoin us on a transformative journey that proves sustainability isn't just about saving the planet—it's about reconnecting with the natural cycles of life right in your own home. In this enlightening episode, we explore the profound practice of giving new life to what others discard, turning everyday "waste" into abundance.Discover the Magic of Kitchen Scrap GardeningEver thrown away the end of a green onion, the base of celery, or the top of a carrot? What if we told you these "scraps" hold the power to become thriving plants on your windowsill or in your garden? We'll guide you through simple, accessible techniques for regrowing vegetables from parts you'd normally toss—including lettuce hearts, herb stems, potato eyes, ginger root, garlic cloves, and so much more. No fancy equipment needed, just water, soil, sunlight, and a little patience.You'll learn which vegetables regrow fastest (hello, green onions in just days!), which ones provide the most rewarding harvests, and the meditative joy of watching life regenerate from what seemed "finished." This practice isn't just practical—it's a daily reminder that nothing is truly waste, everything has potential, and nature's generosity is limitless when we pay attention.The Deeper Practice of Reuse & RecycleBut this episode goes beyond gardening tips. We explore the spiritual dimension of conscious consumption—how the act of reusing and recycling becomes a meditation on abundance versus scarcity, gratitude versus entitlement, and our intimate relationship with the Earth. When we choose to repair rather than replace, to repurpose rather than discard, we're making a statement about our values and our place in the web of life.We'll share creative ideas for transforming household items into new treasures: glass jars becoming planters or storage, old fabrics finding new purpose, composting as a sacred return to the soil, and the revolutionary act of simply buying less while appreciating more.A Barefoot Approach to Environmental StewardshipThis is sustainability stripped of guilt and preachiness—just practical wisdom, inspiring stories, and the gentle reminder that small, consistent actions create profound change. Whether you're a seasoned eco-warrior or just beginning to question your relationship with consumption, this episode offers accessible pathways to living more lightly on the Earth while growing more abundance in your life.Perfect for anyone who wants to reduce their environmental footprint, save money, reconnect with natural cycles, or simply experience the quiet miracle of watching a carrot top sprout new green life in a dish of water on their kitchen counter.Join us for this grounded, inspiring conversation that proves enlightenment isn't just about meditation cushions and mountaintops—it's also about dirt under your fingernails and the joy of creating something from "nothing."Would you like me to adjust the tone, length, or focus of this description?

A Note from Michael: The Thriving Farmer Podcast is currently on pause as we navigate a busy season on the farm. While we're taking this break, we're excited to share Farm in Focus, a special series of short, focused conversations recorded earlier this year. These bite-sized episodes highlight practical insights from farmers and experts across the industry. We hope they're helpful and encouraging as you continue your farming journey. How can flax become a sustainable, versatile crop for modern farms? In this Farm in Focus episode, Michael sits down with Emma de Long of Kneehigh Farm to talk about her work with fiber flax—one of the oldest cultivated crops in the world and a plant with surprising potential for today's regenerative and artisan fiber markets. Emma shares how she began growing flax in 2020 and why she co-founded the Pennsylvania Flax Project, an initiative working to rebuild regional fiber infrastructure. From the anatomy of the flax plant to the practical challenges of processing, Emma explains both the opportunities and realities of reviving a heritage fiber crop in the U.S. Whether you're curious about natural fibers, looking to diversify your crops, or interested in small-scale processing, this episode offers a thoughtful and accessible introduction to a crop with deep history and growing future demand.   In this episode, you'll hear about: Flax Basics & History Why flax has nearly vanished in U.S. production—and why it's making a comeback [03:20] The difference between fiber flax and seed flax, and how each is bred [03:20] Pennsylvania's historical ties to flax cultivation dating back to the 1600s [03:20] Market Interest & Opportunity Rising demand for natural fibers and sustainable textiles [10:29] Zero-waste potential—how nearly every part of the plant is useful [10:29] Growing Fiber Flax What makes flax a low-input, sustainable crop [08:16] Soil and weather considerations—why "the weather trumps all" [08:16] Tips for new growers and why starting small is best [18:35] Processing & Infrastructure Why processing flax into fiber is complex—but possible on small scales [13:39] Current challenges around U.S. flax infrastructure [16:33] How the Pennsylvania Flax Project is working toward a regional processing mill [16:33] Wrap-Up & Reflection Why flax can be both a joy and a challenge to integrate into diversified farms [18:35]   Bio: Emma de Long is a farmer, educator, and fiber advocate based in Chester County, Pennsylvania. She founded Kneehigh Farm in 2013 and has since grown a diverse mix of vegetables, dye plants, and fiber crops. Since 2019, Emma has cultivated indigo for natural pigment extraction, and in 2020 she co-founded the Pennsylvania Flax Project, an initiative dedicated to rebuilding regional flax processing infrastructure. Kneehigh Farm operates as a 100% women-run operation, and in 2021 Emma opened Red Dog Market, a year-round outlet for farm goods and local products. Links:

If the value of the material recovered doesn't exceed the cost to collect and process it, that item ends up in a landfill. This economic gap is exactly where Tom Szaky has built an empire.Recently, Tom Szaky, the CEO and founder of TerraCycle, shared insights on how he is tackling the world's garbage problem. His company isn't just a recycling firm; it is a supply chain innovator that figures out how to recycle the “unrecyclable,” from cigarette butts to dirty diapers.Tom explains the core issue with clarity. “The reality is most things in the world can be recycled. The difference is that recycling is not really a public service. It's run by for-profit companies.”He notes that aluminum cans are recycled because they are profitable. Conversely, complex items like coffee capsules cost more to process than the aluminum is worth. TerraCycle solves this by finding stakeholders—brands, retailers, and cities—willing to fund that gap.This model has proven incredibly successful. TerraCycle has been profitable for years and recently completed a Regulation Crowdfunding offering for TerraCycle US. They raised $5 million in less than 60 days.Investors are drawn to the company not just for its mission but for its financial discipline. Tom highlighted that previous investors have already received significant returns. “If you invested, say $1,000 in REG A back five years ago, you'd have already been paid somewhere between 17% and 20% of that invested capital in dividends.”Tom Szaky, Founder and CEO of TerraCycle, will be speaking at SuperGreen Live, sharing insights on sustainability, circular economy solutions, and rethinking waste at scale—register now at SuperGreenLive.orgTom challenges the old binary that you either make money or you do good. He believes purpose fuels business fundamentals. By locating his HQ in Trenton, New Jersey, he revitalizes an underserved community while gaining access to affordable real estate and a diverse talent pool.“Why should on one end we make money and on the other end give it away to NGOs to help save the world?” Tom asks. “Why can't those two concepts come together where you can invest in a profitable business whose core focus is making the world better?”TerraCycle is proving that you can indeed do both. By aligning profit with planetary health, Tom is showing a path toward a zero-waste world that makes economic sense.tl;dr:TerraCycle creates supply chains for hard-to-recycle waste by getting stakeholders to fund the cost gap.Recycling is an economic challenge because items are only recycled locally if they generate profit.Tom recently raised $5 million via Regulation Crowdfunding by demonstrating proven growth and consistent dividends.Purpose-driven business models can drive better economic fundamentals like lower costs and government support.Tom's superpower is rallying people around a vision by starting with a beautiful, impactful idea.How to Develop Rallying Believers As a SuperpowerTom describes his superpower as the ability to get others to see his vision and join him in executing it. It isn't just about salesmanship; it is about authentic conviction. He explains, “I feel like my core superpower is convincing people to believe in my dreams and rallying them around.” This ability allows him to mobilize diverse groups, from college interns to multinational corporations, to tackle massive global challenges like waste elimination.To illustrate this, Tom shared a charming story from his childhood. In second grade, he had a vision of folding thousands of origami cranes to create a decorative entryway for his bedroom. He started folding them at a table with four other classmates. He didn't force them to help; he just started doing the work with passion. Within two days, the whole table was folding cranes. By the end of the week, the entire class was involved. This early experience taught him that if you lead with action and a compelling idea, people will naturally want to be part of the journey.How to Develop This SuperpowerFor those interested in rallying people around a vision, Tom offers several insights that can help transform this into a skill:Start with a beautiful idea. The core concept should not just be about making money. It must be something that makes the world better, more beautiful, or more sustainable.Believe in it yourself. Authentic, unwavering belief in a dream is essential before expecting others to follow.Just start doing it. Action attracts others. By beginning the work, people will naturally gravitate toward the energy and vision.View profit as health, not the goal. While profit is necessary to survive, keeping the mission as the central focus ensures authenticity. This, in turn, attracts investors, employees, and partners who want to be part of something meaningful.Maintain clarity of vision. Instead of trying to fix everything at once, a focused approach on a specific area of expertise drives meaningful change.By following Tom's example and advice, rallying believers can become a powerful skill. With practice and effort, this superpower can enable individuals and organizations to achieve greater impact.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileTom Szaky (he/him):CEO/Founder, TerraCycleAbout TerraCycle: TerraCycle is an international leader in innovative sustainability solutions, creating and operating first-of-their-kind platforms in recycling, recycled materials, and reuse.

In this episode of Sustainable Packaging with Cory Connors, Cory sits down with Mikey Pasciuto to explore SCRAPP's evolution from a recycling app to a comprehensive zero-waste platform. Mikey shares insights on Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), operational waste costs, and why businesses should design for efficiency rather than just policy. They dive into real-world examples, challenges in recycling infrastructure, and how SCRAPP helps brands navigate complex waste streams and regulations.Key Topics Discussed:SCRAPP's journey: from barcode-scanning recycling app to full-service waste accounting platformThe role of data in predicting and reducing waste generationExtended Producer Responsibility (EPR): what it means for brands and why it mattersOperational costs of waste management and strategies to reduce themReal-world case studies: balancing packaging design, food waste reduction, and EPR feesWhy designing for operations beats designing for policyThe importance of recycled content mandates and eco-modulationChallenges in recycling markets, infrastructure funding, and material economicsStandardization of recycling rules vs. local market realitiesUniversal landfill bans and their impact on creating new recycling marketsResources Mentioned:SCRAPP Zero Waste PlatformOregon Recycling Modernization ActCarton Council recycling grantsToyota Kanban and Six Sigma principles (applied to packaging logistics)Contact:To learn more or connect with Mikey:Website: www.scrappzero.comLinkedIn: Mikey PasciutoClosing Thoughts:Mikey emphasizes that EPR fees should be viewed as part of doing business, not as a barrier to sustainability. By focusing on operational efficiency and informed packaging decisions, companies can reduce costs, minimize waste, and support a circular economy. Cory and Mikey agree: the future of packaging lies in balancing performance, recyclability, and system-wide thinking.Thank you for tuning in to Sustainable Packaging with Cory Connors!https://www.linkedin.com/in/cory-connors/I'm here to help you make your packaging more sustainable!

Πόσο εύκολο είναι για μια επιχείρηση καφεστίασης ή φιλοξενίας να μειώσει τα απορρίμματά της χωρίς να επιβαρύνει τον ήδη απαιτητικό καθημερινό της ρυθμό; Μπορεί η εξοικονόμηση νερού και ενέργειας να μεταφραστεί σε πραγματικό οικονομικό όφελος; Και, τελικά, είναι εφικτό ένας ολόκληρος κλάδος να αλλάξει νοοτροπία και να στραφεί στη βιωσιμότητα, χωρίς να νιώσει ότι «θυσιάζει» κάτι από τη λειτουργία του; O διευθυντής σύνταξης της LiFO, Γιάννης Πανταζόπουλος συζητά με τον πρόεδρο της Οικολογικής Εταιρείας Ανακύκλωσης, Φίλιππο Κυρκίτσο για το Zero Waste HORECA, ένα πρόγραμμα που εδώ και χρόνια στηρίζει ουσιαστικά τις επιχειρήσεις του χώρου, προσφέροντάς τους γνώση, εργαλεία και κατεύθυνση. Το πρόγραμμα υλοποιείται από τη ΜΚΟ Οικολογική Εταιρεία Ανακύκλωσης με τη χρηματοδότηση του The Coca-Cola Foundation, την υποστήριξη της Coca-Cola και τελεί υπό την αιγίδα του Υπουργείου Περιβάλλοντος και Ενέργειας.

Cities worldwide are drowning in trash. Landfills are full, oceans are clogged with plastic. Many are trying to change, but one effort stands apart in its sheer scale and ambition: China's nationwide push to build“zero-waste cities.”The goal is a system where everything is reused, repurposed, or recovered.

CELTICS COURT REPORT- BRIAN SCALABRINE, LETS TALK BOSTON HOOPS.

I made a rich, zero-waste mushroom soup by dry-searing slices of one of three King Oyster Mushrooms. I sweat onions in a knob of algae butter a friend brought me from France with the thought that it would add to the earthyness of the soup and Yes Sirree indeed it did! Then I  crumbled a vegetable bouillon cube into processed mushrooms and onions, about two Tspoons of flour, white wine, tamari, and Worcestershire sauce and stirred gently occassionally over a medium flame. Small touches like a milk and flour slurry, a spoon of creme fraîche, and a splash of Marsala and sherry rum pepper sauce flavored the silky body soup in a very delectable comforting flavor without any heaviness.Please find the steps I used in a list format: • dry sear for roasted mushroom flavor• onion gently sweated in butter for sweetness• vegetable bouillon and wine for depth• tamari, Worcestershire, paprika for umami and warmth• optional milk slurry for light body• creme fraîche for tang and gloss• sherry pepper or marsala for a nutty lift• roasted mushroom garnish for texture• zero food packaging waste as a core value• toast from rescued bread as a thrifty pairingI  hope you'll be so inclined to give the episode a thumbs up, share it with friends, because we've gotta be disruptors.MINDFUL MEALS & SUSTAINABLE LIVING - The Art of Living an Elevated Lifestyle

We recently interviewed Ross from Smootheeze, diving deep into the challenges and triumphs of scaling a sustainable, premium kitchen brand. This conversation reveals the brilliant product strategies and marketing tactics behind the viral smoothie prep system. Ross articulated that the most frequent and frustrating daily barrier for users is the often-messy, time-consuming morning prep itself, beyond just the frozen banana clump. Smootheeze solves this "next" by providing effortless pop-out convenience that removes the friction entirely, making a consistent, healthy morning smoothie routine achievable. The discussion highlights the brand's commitment to its zero-waste, anti-consumption ethos. Ross explained that Lifetime Value (LTV) is sustained not through repeated product purchases, but by building a powerful user-generated recipe ecosystem (UGC). This content strategy keeps the community engaged and locks them into the brand by fostering creative, endless usage. To mitigate the known issue of silicone odor and turmeric stains, Smootheeze focuses heavily on educational contentand specific cleaning protocols to protect the long-term functionality and aesthetic of the trays. Finally, Ross provided strategic insight on the Freezer Real Estate Battle, emphasizing the trays' stackable, space-saving design against bulky frozen meals. Regarding Channel Expansion, the long-term strategy involves leveraging the brand's Kickstarter success to strategically test limited retail expansion while doubling down on DTC/Amazon to maintain critical control over the brand story and community connection.
