S2 Ep9: A-Z of Sustainability (Part 2)

Hello lovely people, welcome to our final episode of Season 2!  This year has been unexpectedly turbulent and has thrown everyone’s daily lives into complete disarray. For us, we still managed to find solace in our podcast and continued to record remotely. We have been so lucky to be able to speak to incredible individuals and meet people online over the last few months. It has shown us that with challenges come opportunities. So thank you- to everyone who has supported us for our second year, we are beyond grateful and we’re already gearing up for Season 3! Our final episode is Part 2 of our A-Z of Sustainability where we work through letters K to Z discussing the Kyoto Protocol, the Paris Agreement, Regenerative Agriculture, Upcycling and so much more! We may have had a whiskey and hot port for the occasion and it’s quite easy to tell that this our first alcoholic beverage in quite some time! So enjoy our inappropriate giggling! Thank you all so much for listening to us every month, If you have a moment, please leave us a review and rate us on your preferred podcast platform! It really does help us reach more willing ears! We’ll be back, Until then, keep learning, sharing and spreading some much needed kindness, All our love,  Clo & Katie x  Show notes: Kyoto Protocol: https://www.epa.ie/climate/thekyotoprotoco LNG/Fracking:  Methane: https://www.factcheck.org/2018/09/how-potent-is-methane/  Net Zero: https://www.nationalgrideso.com/news/fes-2020-what-does-net-zero-target-really-mean  https://www.nationalgrid.com/stories/energy-explained/what-is-net-zero  (Zac Effron doc)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMzYiY5wcHU  Ozone Layer:  https://geographical.co.uk/nature/climate/item/3716-geo-explainers-what-s-happening-to-the-ozone-layer#:~:text=The%20ozone%20layer%20is%20a,layer%20in%20the%20Earth's%20atmosphere).&text=The%20ozone%20layer%20shields%20life,systems%20and%20also%20damage%20plants.   https://www.nasa.gov/feature/goddard/2019/2019-ozone-hole-is-the-smallest-on-record-since-its-discovery  Paris Agreement: https://unfccc.int/process-and-meetings/the-paris-agreement/what-is-the-paris-agreement IPCC Global Warming of 1.5C: https://www.ipcc.ch/sr15/ Pre-Industrial Levels: https://theconversation.com/what-is-a-pre-industrial-climate-and-why-does-it-matter-78601 Quote/Milk Quota: http://www.climatecouncil.ie/media/Working%20Paper%20on%20Agriculture%20and%20Land%20Use.pdf https://www.irishtimes.com/news/ireland/irish-news/dairy-farmers-celebrate-as-milk-quotas-abolished-after-31-years-1.2160563  Regenerative Agriculture: -Reverse climate change https://regenerationinternational.org/why-regenerative-agriculture/ -Kiss the Ground Documentary - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K3-V1j-zMZw  Sustainable Development Goals:  https://www.un.org/sustainabledevelopment/sustainable-development-goals/  Tax/ Carbon Tax: https://www.carbontax.org/whats-a-carbon-tax/ https://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/money_and_tax/tax/motor_carbon_other_taxes/carbon_tax.html https://www.bonkers.ie/guides/gas-electricity/what-is-carbon-tax/ Upcycling:  -Patagonia https://www.patagonia.com/home/  - Aisling Duffy  https://www.aislingduffy.co.uk/  -Upcycling Movement  https://theupcyclemovement.com/  Virgin Plastic:https://www.dw.com/en/we-need-to-talk-about-virgin-plastics/a-48458223   https://www.planetcleanrecycle.com/defining-plastics-virgin-vs-recycled/  Ellen Mac Arthur Foundation -https://www.ellenmacarthurfoundation.org/explore/plastics-and-the-circular-economy  Plastic Packaging Video - https://fb.watch/2p2ymH0S8o/ or https://www.instagram.com/tv/CHr-3sLnrvI/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link  Waste Hierarchy / Green washing: https://www.businessnewsdaily.com/10946-greenwashing.html#:~:text=Greenwashing%20is%20when%20a%20company,services%20from%20environmentally%20conscious%20brands  7 R’s & Reuzi - https://reuzi.ie/  Extinction: https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/prehistoric-world/mass-extinction/ Youth Climate Movement: http://www.youngo.uno/  https://fridaysforfuture.org/  Zero waste Daniel - Upcycling Store http://zerowastedaniel.com/  Zero Wasters to follow: https://www.instagram.com/zerowasteireland/   Lauren Singer: https://www.instagram.com/trashisfortossers/   https://www.instagram.com/zero.waste.collective/  https://www.instagram.com/zerowastemaynooth/  https://www.instagram.com/queerbrownvegan/  https://www.instagram.com/browngirl_green/   https://zerowastememoirs.com/about-zero-waste-memoirs/  Bea Johnson: https://zerowastehome.com/  https://www.instagram.com/compostsociety/
