Zero waste can be intimidating.
But it doesn't have to be...
Hi! My name is Ariana Storniolo and I’ve been zero waste since 2017. It was by far the best lifestyle choice I EVER made.
Our world is drowning in plastic. Over 8.3 billion tons has been generated since the 1950s – only 5-6% of it actually being recycled. The average American produces 4.9 lbs of trash per day – I don’t want to be a part of that statistic, do you?
I ditched single use plastic and I haven’t looked back since. I’m no longer a part of that statistic. Instead, I’m the kind of girl who shops at the farmers market, picks up litter, hits up thrift stores, and makes her own tub scrub.
Chances are, you’re like me. You said ENOUGH to plastic and want to kick it to the curb. If so, you’re in the right place.
