Recently, a member of a group posted “I’d love to know what changes you’re making in your home / life to help better the planet. I’d love to make changes too so a little push from those who are already making a change will really help.“
This gave me the opportunity to think about what I do to be environmentally considerate, as well as, revisit why I do them. I hope that this article helps you do the same.

Interviewing vegan businesses
I've been interviewing vegan businesses for a while now. It started off by creating articles in which I invited the business to share some of the following information:-
- raise awareness about what they sell,
- discuss what made them create the business,
- share what their goals are
- how customers can buy their products
- express if their product is affected by the use of vegan 'ingredients'
However, more recently, I've ventured into the world of video. I have started recording short interviews with vegan businesses, through which they share what's new and show how they've grown since they began their journey.
Read on to find out about my journey to a vegan lifestyle.
