Description
Make-it-Green Girl's Quick and Dirty Tips for an Earth Friendly Life are designed for the green at heart. Many of us recognize the need for changes in our society, but eco-championing can't be everyone's full time job--especially since making sense of environmental issues is neither easy nor quick.
The friendly and fun weekly episodes provide readily actionable tips about which green principles and practices can make a difference, how to put them into motion, and how to make them a seamless part of everyday life. Whether you're an experienced environmentalist, or just embarking on the frontiers of green awareness, every person can help reduce humanity's impact on our terrestrial home, and have fun doing it.
Join host Anna Elzeftawy for some short, sweet advice about how to do your part to make our planet a better place to live.
Anna Elzeftawy Bio
Anna Elzeftawy has been saving the world since 3rd grade. Starting with a passion for rainforest conservation (her third grade project was a rainforest model she made out of construction paper) Anna continued through high school to explore quick and dirty ways she and her family could save the Earth. Her love of science fiction caused considerable career vacillation between becoming an astronaut and becoming something more down to Earth. However, at the University of California, Berkeley, she realized you can't change who you were born to be, and went back to tree-hugging. She finished at Cal with a BS in chemical engineering, and set about using her new-found skills to save the world. What started out as a juvenile report on the dangers of the hole in the ozone layer became a life-long obsession. Anna now works in environmental engineering and remediation with her firm in California. After haranguing her family into turning off the water while brushing their teeth, she hopes to persuade others that saving the Earth can be easy, cost, effective, and fun. Her favorite color is green.
