Description

We use plastic in almost everything. Plastic in our homes, plastic in our food packaging—there's even plastic in our clothing. But did you know that only 9% of all plastic waste ever produced has been recycled? The rest is poisoning our environment, and it is also poisoning us. In this episode, Kathtryn Nelson, also known as The Plastic-Free Mermaid, shares what we can do to solve this plastic problem so we can take better care of ourselves and our planet.

Commune is a podcast where we explore the ideas and practices that bring us together and help us live healthy, purpose-filled lives. We believe personal and societal health are two sides of the same coin, and that cultivating personal wellness is the first step toward making the world well. We connect with experts, scientists, and storytellers around food, health, social impact, mindfulness and movement practices, personal growth, and environmental action. In addition to being a podcast, Commune is also an online course platform where thousands of participants take each course together, day-by-day, for free. We then provide social tools that empower participants to form local action groups and implement their new knowledge in their communities.
