New Year, Same Me

Hi! My name is Bianca Deltorto-Russell and I am a self-taught environmentalist. I do my own research and stay informed with ways to live a more sustainable life. Anyone who knows me personally will know that I try to find a way to discuss actions that people can take to be more sustainable all the time and I figured that I should find another outlet to relay this information. I have been wanting to start a blog for quite some time now and decided that 2020 was the year that this would come true. My goal is to write about changes that individuals can apply to their lives to reduce our collective negative impact on the environment. Some of my sustainability tips will relate to Montreal specifically and when that is the case I will mention it in the post. I would also like to mention that I will simply write about things that I have learned and use in my life, but if you have other ideas or better ways to do something, I definitely want to hear about it.

This blog will include posts relating to sustainability tips including environmentally-friendly products that you can purchase (and where to get them), vegan information and recipes, places to recycle different household items and other general tips. I hope to also feature other individuals on this blog as long as they comply with my goal. Feel free to message me if you'd like to be featured.

I have always felt a strong connection to our planet and have worked over the years to do what I can to help it. I have not purposely consumed any animal products in approximately four years. I am currently working on going towards a zero waste lifestyle (only putting waste in a compost bin or recycling bin). Public transportation is my main source of travel until I can purchase a vehicle that is not as harmful to the environment.

We are living in a world that is majorly impacted by climate change. There are tons of things we can each do to help and I hope that you will find this blog enlightening and that you will try to apply some of these changes. Please let me know if you do!

Earth Day - Improving Recycling Habits

Happy Earth Day! Since 1970, April 22nd has become a monumental day in environmental activism that allows us to reflect on how our individual actions impact our environment. Activists have used Earth Day to really voice their concerns about the future of our planet and the current state of our deteriorating environment. We, as citizens and individuals, should reflect on how we can help create a cleaner environment and a more sustainable future! As kids, we’ve learned the 3 Rs: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. Reduce: buy less things to minimize your consumption. Reuse: purchase second-hand items or transform items for another purpose rather than throwing them away. Recycling: throw your items into a bin so that they could be collected, then transformed and manufactured into another material. In Canada, we throw all our recyclables into one bin, which includes paper, plastic, metal, and glass. Materials like paper, cardboard, and aluminium are easy to recycle, but plastics could only be do...

Moving Day!

Are you moving or recently moved? Do you know someone that is moving? If you live in Canada, you know that the designated moving day is right around the corner. As someone who recently moved, I'd like to offer some sustainable tips based on my experience. Also, lots of these tips can be used when you have your own place and just want to make some small sustainable changes. Step 1 - Decluttering Once you know your move-in date, you will likely want to start packing ASAP. However, before you can really start packing, the best thing you can do is declutter. This definitely can be done at the same time as packing, but should be prioritized. You don't want to bring things you don't need or don't like into your new space. Once you've separated out all the things you don't need anymore, you must figure out what you want to do with them. Are they worth something? If so, maybe you can post the items online and try to sell them! This definitely applies to furniture. Why n...
