39: How to vote with your dollar and shop smarter this holiday season

What does holiday shopping have to do with ocean conservation? So much more than you might think! In this episode, we’re diving into how you can vote with your dollar to support the planet this holiday season. Black Friday and Cyber Monday are great for deals, but 80% of those purchases end up in landfills. That’s bad news blues for marine life, coastal ecosystems, and our climate. But we have the power to make change here people!! RESIST THE TJ MAXX CHECKOUT LINE AISLE

We’ll chat about how to support small, sustainable brands instead of falling for the tricks of big corporations that just want to take your money. Plus, I’m sharing thrift store gift ideas (perfect for the budget and the planet!) and offering some tangible tips to resist the pull of overconsumption.

It’s not about being perfect, it’s about being thoughtful. Let’s make this holiday season one that uplifts our communities, supports our oceans, and gives back to the planet.
