"There's a statistic that shows that American dogs and cats eat so much meat, that if they were a country, they would rank fifth in terms of meat consumption. And so the way we choose to feed and treat our pets really does have a big implant impact on carbon emissions, water usage, land usage, and can make a big difference by making small changes.⁠
⁠
So our treats at Bright Planet, because they're plant-based and we use sustainable ingredients. Our treats create 90%, less carbon emissions and use 68% less water than a traditional meat-based treat." ⁠

And learn how you can make an impact in this area by sourcing alternative proteins or switching to plant-based treats. Which may help lower your pet’s carbon pawprint.⁠

"I think just resetting and reshifting or shifting your mindset is asking yourself, always, do you need this? Do you need to buy this first and foremost? And then can you get it Second hand, or can you borrow it or can you like rent it from somewhere? That way sort of like going into that circular economy where you're reusing things and keeping things in use rather than using it and then disposing of it. And then think of like the recycling and organics and compostable as sort of your last resort. Can you reduce first, if you can't not get it. Are there ways that you can get it where you're borrowing it and renting it. So it's secondhand?" ⁠

Jennifer here. My father, Mike Myers passed away this weekend. He was a huge supporter of small business, this project and I’ll miss him dearly.

We will be putting the podcast on pause for this week, to grieve and spend some quiet time reflecting on the beauty of life and what kind of life we want to live. And we will be back next Tuesday with a fresh episode.

"Really so much of what I do now is really so much like what my parents were doing with me when I was a kid...⁠⁠
I was homeschooled. We spent a lot of my youth driving all over North America, down in the Southwest in Arizona and New Mexico and in BC, all parts of Ontario visiting other indigenous ceramic artists, painters and all the while my dad is looking for different pigments, different rocks. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
We were always off on side of the road, off at quarries or gravel pits, rock cuts, different places, looking for stones that had those particular qualities. And that was my favourite thing. I just loved looking around it, all of the rocks and the colours and the differences that could be found."⁠⁠

Anong Beam Talks all about her artist parents and how memories of childhood influenced in episode 15.
