As parents, we all want the best for our children. We want them to grow up healthy, happy, and successful. But, with increasing evidence of climate change, it's becoming more and more important that we also raise our children to be future-minded and sustainable.
The US puts about 30 billion disposable diapers into landfills every year, contributing to the colossal plastic waste harming our planet. Cloth diapering is a solution to this problem, but many parents are hesitant to try what sounds to be a difficult endeavor. Enter Nina, a Mom herself and owner of Diaperkind, a service that makes cloth diapering incredibly easy for parents.
We asked our community of mothers what they do to lower their family’s environmental impact. Over 50 women responded with answers ranging from simple daily swaps, to favorite sustainable brands, even long term major hauls… we were inspired hearing so many people making an effort, big or small, to reform lifestyle habits for the good of the planet.
