I am often talking about how to live more sustainably in this climate-challenging time. November is often the kick off season for celebrating with friends and family.
With that in mind, I thought it might be a good time to share with you a podcast that can help us explore more sustainable methods of enjoying the holidays this season.
Listeners are encouraged to think critically about their consumption patterns and embrace a more mindful approach to celebrating. By tuning into this podcast, you will find inspiration to create lasting memories during the holidays while also taking steps to protect our planet for future generations. Let’s embrace a greener holiday season together!
In Episode #74 of Judith Guerra Wellness Connections podcast, I focus on various ways that we as individuals can improve our relationship to our responsibility to assist in alleviating some of the things that contribute to climate change. Below is a brief summary of the topics discussed. My heart goes out to the people who have suffered from the challenges of climate change, most recently in Los Angeles, California. I am a Climate Change Advocate and will continue to help with information that can make a difference in these most challenging times.

Podcast Focus – Summary:
1) A glimpse at the relationship between climate change, greenhouse gases and Food waste .
2) Of the 2.9 trillion pounds of food that is available worldwide every year, about 1/3 of that quantity eventually goes to Food Waste.
3) Both Food production and Food waste are involved in the creation of greenhouse gases.
4) Food waste is a double contributor because it creates greenhouse gases when produced, and then it creates greenhouse gases as Food waste.
3) An important point that one way to avoid some of the Food waste is to not “over consume”.
4) In the event, that we do “over consume”, we can help to alleviate actual hunger in the world by contributing/donating our “over consumption” foods, so that it gets into the hands of those who can use it as “food proper”, and avoid that part of the creation of greenhouse gases. This lessens the role that Food Waste plays in the production of greenhouse gases and the harmful role that they, in turn, play in climate change.
The unusual weather patterns we are experiencing today are indeed a manifestation of climate change, as reported by numerous scientists and observers globally. It’s an issue we can engage with by educating ourselves and taking action to lessen our impact. Undoubtedly, climate change affects us all, from rising home insurance premiums to water scarcity, among other issues. For more information on climate change, please refer to this video link.
