Hello and welcome back to green living podcast. This week’s guest is Morgan Finley.
Morgan is the owner of Viren Apothecary, focusing on formulating low-waste home care for green cleaning without compromise. Viren products were born from her personal refusal to compromise between eco-friendly ingredients, fine fragrances and sparkling surfaces.
In our conversation we chat about how viren apothecary came about, her most challenging product to make, fragrances in products, and a lot more. A few weeks after recording this episode I ordered her all purpose cleaner (white tea and pear) its heavenly smelling and scouring scrub (unscented). If you follow me on instagram then you might have seen me use them and they are absolutely amazing! I know a lot of people like to DIY their own cleaners which is great, however if you are not one of those people and or are just starting out and wanting eco friendly products while having the convenience of having it pre made I highly recommend her products.
While recording this episode Morgan had her dogs around her so if you hear snoring or noises that is probably them.

Hello! Welcome back Green Living Podcast. In this week’s episode I talk about Greenhouse Gases. This episode dives into what greenhouse gases are, where we use them the most, and ways to reduce our carbon footprint. This is a big subject that I tried to boil down a bit to be able to be easily consumable. There is a lot of research out there so please take this podcast as a mini lesson on a larger issue. I wanted the bulk of this episode to be solutions instead of the problem. I want to focus on things that can still be done to help the planet.
At the end of this episode I also mention my personal plastic audit that I did from mid August to mid September. I counted every single-use plastic item that came into the house and the number was not what I expected. If you haven't listened to the first episode please go listen for some context. Let's create a healthier and happier planet for all.
