My So-Called Sustainable Life

We’re rounding off our discussion about plastics–micro and macro– with the documentary A Plastic Ocean (Leeson, 2016). Tanya Streeter and Craig Leeson embark on a mission to understand the plastic situation across the globe. A surfing aficionado and a former free-driver, these folks have a vested interest in keeping the ocean free of plastic! We follow them as they go all around the world, Maria tells us about their trip to Spain and we talk a little bit about our staff retreat.

A special thanks to Temple KÀ for hosting us for our retreat. The location was so cozy and peaceful I cried on entry!

What is My So-Called Sustainable Life?

My So-Called Sustainable Life is a podcast where two friends and co-workers Paige and Maria discuss different aspects of sustainability as they relate to their personal lives and to their work as External and Design and communication coordinators, respectively, at Concordia University’s fee-levy organization, Sustainable Concordia. They have candid conversations about the reality of working is sustainability in the onslaught of a climate crisis, talk to experts working in varied fields of sustainability and ultimately try to demystify the connection between professional and personal sustainability.
