In what feels like a very natural progression from last week’s episode on Stuff, this week Ben and Brooke talk about their efforts to reduce waste in their home. From food, to clothes, to cleaning Ben and Brooke talk about where they started out on their waste reduction journey and where they find themselves now.
This week they talk through: 

Where the shift from simple living and decluttering to reducing waste and being more sustainable came from
How they first started to reduce waste
Whether they believe they do ‘enough’
Where they've found new opportunities to reduce waste and what those opportunities look like
How they capture their plastic waste
Other than food, what other kinds of waste they've been trying to reduce, and how they're going about it 

Brooke then speaks with Georgi from Season 4, who shares the practical and inspiring things she's done since they last spoke. Not only has Georgi engaged with the communities she's part of, but has also begun a conversation with her council to explore what changes they can begin to make in her local area. Georgi also shares the really exciting project she's working on - a creative and encouraging handbook for action and optimism, written for young people. 
There's a lot of inspiration - both practical and heart-centred - in today's episode, and Georgi shows us how much progress can be made when individuals step up and connect with their local communities. 
Enjoy!
