Welcome to Green Soul Grace!
This little corner of the internet was created to share musings, resources, recipes and projects, often centred around the theme of holistic sustainability, but mostly centred around living with joy and finding it in the everyday.
I also offer public speaking on the topics of low-impact living & holistic sustainability and sell a range of hand-crafted and zero-waste products in the Green Soul Grace Shop.
What is holistic sustainability?
For me, and I know for many others, living sustainably is a holistic concept; within your limitations trying to balance the food you eat, the products you use and the things you buy to be most beneficial for your own health, the health of the planet, and the others living on it. These priorities can sometimes clash.
Sustainable living and Climate Change activism have many faces, and these faces are rarely reflected or centred in mainstream discussions on climate change and sustainability. I’ve been conscious about my carbon footprint, my health and the health of the planet for a long time, but have not often found spaces online and in-person on this subject which, for a variety of reasons, I feel included in and can identify with. If Climate Change work is not intersectional, it is reproducing the colonialism, capitalism and racism that created the Climate Crisis we are in. Climate Change activism must be led by the pursuit of Climate Justice. So I decided to create a space of my own where I can explore all of these things and hopefully, in turn, create a community where we can learn from each other and advocate for the world we want to live in.
I hope you find this an inclusive and welcoming space to explore, with much joy and encouragement to make the world we live in better for everybody.
With love,
Grace x
