I’m so excited Costa Mesa has a new zero waste s I’m so excited Costa Mesa has a new zero waste store!!! I’ve always loved going to this part of the OC as a teenager - I’d go thrifting, take cool pictures, work on my laptop, and meet friends for coffee. It’s been a little creative eco-haven for me, which makes the addition of a zero waste shop, @eco.now.ca, extra exciting. . Have you been intimidated to buy bulk, or confused on how to calculate tare weight of your mason jars? 🙋🏼‍♀️ Shops like this make it so simple and *not* intimidating. I encourage you to find one in your area to kick off your curiosity on how pros like Bea of @zerowastehome and Lauren of @trashisfortossers have mastered the art of zero waste living (I haven’t quite got there yet)! . Not to mention... only 50% of empty bathroom products in the USA get recycled.🧴 Investing in reusable glass containers and refilling them on routine is a way for you to help offset part of this massive waste problem. You’ve got the power to do a lot of good and I’m rooting for you! 🙏🏼🤍🌎 . . . . . . . . . . . #trashisfortossers #zerowaste #lowwaste #zerowasteliving #zerowastehome #zerowastelife #zerowastetravel #zerowastetips #zerowastebathroom #minimalist #wastemanagement #wastefree #wastefreeplanet #planetearth #savetheplanet #savetheplanet🌍 #savetheearth #savetheenvironment #protecttheearth #protecttheplanet #ecotips #ecotip #grexy #ecochic

I’m so honored and excited to have been apart of the conversation with amazingly passionate women to shine a spotlight on these issues and celebrate the kindness and power sustainable practices spread! ✨♻️ . I had such a great answering panel questions with @createcultivate for @projectwomens exhibit in Vegas. It was refreshing to be amongst supporters who believe that sustainability is good for business and the planet. How do you share your passions with people?

Happy 2020 friends!! It’s been a minute! 😄 A Happy 2020 friends!! It’s been a minute! 😄 A lot of great things happened 2019... I became an accredited LEED Green Associate (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design), advanced my career in EHS (Environmental, Health, & Safety), helped my sister plan her wedding, and started dating someone great! . This year I’m looking forward to posting more to encourage ways we can be lower waste, despite the hustle and bustle of life. One way I love doing that is through fashion, because I wholeheartedly believe you can express yourself elegantly and authenticity with secondhand or sustainably-made garments.

Last night I had the pleasure to attend @GlobalGre Last night I had the pleasure to attend @GlobalGreen’s Pre Oscar Gala!! I was a guest on behalf of Energy Indendependence Now nonprofit, @driveh2! The goal of the event is to raise awareness in sustainable living and finding news ways to protect the environment through alternative fuels for transportation, such as hydrogen fuel powered cars! 🚙💧🌏 Reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the transportation sector by advancing clean hydrogen #fuelcell electric vehicles offers hope in what direction our planet is headed. 💚 So grateful to be apart of the green community and meet inspiring and passionate people who believe in sustainable technologies ✊🏼 #EINoscars #H2GO
Have you ever looked into your closet and felt str Have you ever looked into your closet and felt strangely irritated? It sounds odd, but sometimes pieces in my wardrobe were so ill-fitting, scratchy, or reminded me of a weird time in my life that I was sort of annoyed owning it. 😅 For me, it was a revolutionary thought that I don’t HAVE to keep things. The environmentalist inside me had such a hard time letting things go. But holding onto stuff that does not serve you is not a sustainable mindset. Imagine having a wardrobe where everything was comfortable, fit right, and made you smile when you looked at it? This dress reminds me of that. It might be the softest, comfiest thing I own, and it’s also really cute and functional. The kicker is I bought it for a few bucks at a hidden gem of a thrift store in midcity Los Angeles. This might of been one of those pieces that somebody never really liked or felt that great in. Among the irony, secondhand clothing offers a magic touch. ✨ By choosing to minimize, consolidate, and recycle your goods, you can focus less on stuff, more on living, and give things a second chance at life 🙏🏼 How do you feel when you finally let things go?
New Years tidying 101: keep items that bring you i New Years tidying 101: keep items that bring you immense joy. If an item no longer serves you, thank it, and send it off to live another life! 🙏🏼 I learned this philosophy from the amazing @mariekondo’s Tidying Up on Netflix and felt her method was very conscious/sustainable! Have you seen her show? 💚

Hi I'm Karen, creator of Sustainable Daisy!

I believe that being eco-friendly doesn't mean you have to compromise what you enjoy in life. We have the power to shop mindfully and in turn make choices that radiate goodness into the world. I love to highlight transparent, sustainable brands run by passionate people who want to make the planet a better place! 

I hope you'll learn something new and enjoy being apart of a community of people who love to love this planet! You can read more here.

Much Love,
