So after doing the daily for nearly 40 episodes, I'm moving to America, which means I need to take a bit of a break to move my entire life across the Pacific ocean. I will hopefully be back in some capacity after the move, but it will depend on my job situation, living situation, etc. Make sure to follow me to get updates on what's happening! Thank you all so much for tuning in. I'll be back!

The fossil fuel industry has been trying to cloud their impact on climate and the planet for decades, so it's really important that we recognize when they're trying to use their tactics to confuse us. By deflecting the blame onto individuals, they take the focus off of themselves, but does that mean you shouldn't bother with individual action?

Time to talk about my favorite productivity tool: the bullet journal! It's a fantastic way to keep track of your goals in an easy, flexible, simple way. If you need a better to-do list, calendar, and goal tracker all rolled into one, look no further than making your own bullet journal.

Time for a VG Daily reflection. There are some things I really like that I've done with the Daily, but a few things I also really don't like. Today we reflect on how I feel about the daily, and what I'm thinking about doing for it going into the future! If you can, please give some input either by emailing me at [email protected] or commenting on my YouTube channel! I'd really appreciate hearing from you and want to know what you guys want from me and my channel!

We're looking at the goals and action items of the Green New Deal! Tomorrow, how we can be sure everyone benefits!
Today I promised myself I would do a much better episode than yesterday. I hope I succeeded.

Continuing my previous discussion of what's in the green new deal, today we're discussing the social, economic, and national security issues brought on by climate change.
Post recording note: Man guys, today I was just out of it. I was tired, my thoughts weren't fully formed, my internet was dropping in and out...Everything was just a mess on this day. I apologize for how bad this talk was. Tomorrow will be better.

Sorry guys, today's daily sucks as a podcast because we're meeting my dog, Manoa, live! Come check the video on YouTube, unless you just want to hear my dogs feet pitter-pattering on the floor and me praising my dog for doing tricks. I'll make better podcast-oriented content in the future!

I've been wanting to do a video talking about the Green New Deal for a while, since it's become politically taboo to mention. In actuality, it (or something like it) is what we need to protect the environment and a future that we all want. Today, we're talking about just one part of it: the IPCC's findings on climate change!

In researching which charity I want to donate to when I hit 100 subscribers on YouTube, I ended up reading up about carbon offsets. What are they? How do they work? Are they actually worth buying? I share what I learn!

On the 2nd ever Funday Monday, I decided to talk about something a friend recently asked me: how do you pick a boyfriend/girlfriend/husband/wife? How do you know they're the one? So I came up with an analogy that I think perfectly fits the bill!

So we talked about why I'm quitting meat: the emotional and logical reasons, but how do we go from deciding to do something, to acting? Making changes to your life is hard, so what we can we do to maximize our chance of continuing to do something we decide to do? Today I tell you how.

Continuing yesterdays discussion about why I'm quitting meat. We talked about the emotions and feelings involved in eating meat, then we thought about how that meat is connected to the world around me. Today, we're going to look a little bit into some science behind those feelings to see if those feelings are justified. A real-life example of how to Live ECO.
