E85: Commons: sustainable shopping made easy

Episode 85 Published 8 months, 3 weeks ago
Description

This week on Everybody in the Pool, it’s Earth Month of personal climate action! This week we’re tackling an all-too-common question: I want to shop more sustainably, but I’m not sure what to buy (or what not to buy)! Commons is an app and website that helps you easily find sustainable alternatives to everyday items — mostly clothes and textiles now, with more to come. Founder Sanchali Pal is a self-described data nerd who’s been tracking her own carbon footprint, and the impact of her personal choices, for over a decade now. And here’s the thing: we keep getting told that we’re powerless and companies need to make meaningful change, but the truth is, they’re listening to us, and the votes of our dollars matter now more than ever.
