Last year, the Costa Rican government announced its plan to eradicate all single-use plastics by 2021. “When we reach 200 years of independent life we will take Costa Rica forward and celebrate… that we’ve removed gasoline and diesel from our transportation,” the president said in his inauguration speech. : @clean.ocean.activists

Hey, I’m Kate ✨ There are a lot of new people here, and so many wondering: is she an ethical fashion blogger, a crazy bird lady, a zero-waste advocate, obsessive dog mum, and does she really eat ALL of the kiwi fruit and pick up her dog’s poo in a jar⠀ .⠀ Yes to all of the above‍♀️ This is my personal Instagram, but I use it as a tool to spread education and tools for how to live with more respect for the planet + people + yourself ⠀ .⠀ I live north of Auckland, New Zealand, 3.5mns walk from the beach with my husband + two flat mates/friends, 2 handraised birds, and cute pup ⠀ .⠀ This is my bread + butter:⠀ ✖️Ghost write content on blogs+social media⠀ ✖️Help small brands strategise their social media⠀ ✖️Random odd jobs- e.g. promo girl at events, babysitting⠀ ✖️Partner with sustainable businesses to promote their work on my social media + website (if I make commission, I use this to attend events for development + reporting back to you)⠀ ✖️Write for awesome eco online platforms as ‘Ethically Kate’⠀ ✖️Consult with companies (and individuals sometimes) to reduce + consider their footprint⠀ .⠀ This is everything else:⠀ ✖️Own an in-home childcare company that I’m growing (labour of love + investment currently)- I have 18 employees and I’m 24/7 on call.⠀ ✖️Answer every personal message online + do research for you if you need something specific⠀ ✖️Talk in schools about sustainable fashion⠀ ✖️Support start ups however I can⠀ ✖️Speak at events⠀ ✖️Give feedback on high school student’s assignments (I’m a stakeholder for 2 currently)⠀ ✖️Answer around 5 questionnaires a month - students assignments, magazines etc⠀ ✖️All the random stuff that comes up and I say YES! I want to help!⠀ .⠀ I’m also a passionate Aunty to two beautiful nieces, gardener, yogi, book worm, and musician ⠀ .⠀ I don’t like to wear gloves, I sleep upside down on Thursday nights, I shower in the dark, I’m coeliac, I hate ironic women empowerment shirts made by women enslaved, and I won’t hug you until you welcome it (then I’ll hug you HARDCORE every time I see you) ⠀ .⠀ It’s fun to reflect, so tell me, who are you please?✨

A controversial topic for sure but what we eat has a drastic impact on the environment. Reducing our meat intake is one way to reduce humanity’s over consumption of resources. Vast resources such as land, grains and water are required to produce meat and other animal products. The resources used to feed and grow livestock could be used to grow food for direct human consumption. Even reducing your consumption by a few meals a week is enough to make a substantial difference. #writesolutions #waste #sustainabilitymatters #sustaianblewaste #conciousconsumer #consumerism .

DO GOOD SH*T TIP #9: It’s All About The He Said, She Said, They Said! A simple and awesome way to help someone feel loved and understood is to use their preferred pronouns! It’s so easy (and if “they” doesn’t come naturally at first—practice makes perfect!). Some people will offer theirs, and if not, asking in a friendly way is always okay. ️‍ #youdeoyou #bettervibesdaily
