When you sell items on poshmark, how do you package? I want to start but I’m not sure how to mail it safely without plastic and where do I get the packaging material. Can you do a video about that? Thank you !! <3
Thanks. There are no pic-nick table or firepits in wilderness ( : . Give your brain and ears a break from human noises and listen to the great outdoors. All that nature has to offer you is free. They are called environmental services and you should listen to a lack of noise from humans.
Is it possible to talk to you personally and get some solutions to some wasteful struggles in someone’s personal situation?
That bug spray is 💯💯💯💯
Got mine on earth hero 😝
Aw I love that you came to CO, my home state. I love it here! 🖤🖤
Ahhh this makes me want to go camping! Thanks for this 😊
whaaaa…
Nobody:
Absolutely no one:

Strongly recommend against wearing any cotton on trail, just FYI it’s awful. It doesn’t wick moisture, it takes forever to dry, it’s not breathe able, it smells, it chaffes; and wearing material that does not quickly dry on your feet on trail makes your feet a breeding ground for bacteria
Earthhero needs an app!:) this is all amazing!
Before I even watch this video.. THANK YOU.. I needed this because I’m a camp counselor and I have been trying to live more eco friendly and I was wondering how I would do that at camp as well!!
Don’t use bug spray! Use baby oil! I swear I was invisible to mosquitos it was insane!
Great tips. We do the tp/lint starter too. I am looking for good socks but cotton socks aren’t recommended for running/hiking/backpacking as they don’t dry quickly or wick away moisture. I was sad you didn’t have a tent. If you are flying into Denver you can borrow a tent from me next time.
Did the rice cook from the heat of the 🌶️?
This is perfect timing I’m going camping in a few weeks and I could not figure out a good way to reduce my waste while camping. Thank you!!
Shelbi this video is honestly one of your best. You’re making beautiful content and only getting better and better at it. Love you!!!!
Looking forward to the sock video. I’m trying to replace my old ones. I’m assuming you won’t be including any with wool but i live in Canada and having at least a little wool content is essential to me for warmth. I would like to know if there are some brands that make ones with wool but in a way that doesn’t harm the animals. I know vegans won’t agree that’s possible but like with many things, a smaller more conscious brand that has some wool, to me, is better than me having to buy from Joe Fresh. That is where my last pairs were from ( before I knew better). The most popular brand here is called ‘Smart Wool’. I haven’t looked into their ethics yet but I’m not hopeful and I won’t buy from them until I do some really deep research. I don’t buy synthetic ( plastic) materials when it comes to clothes/ socks. Although it is almost impossible to find any sock that doesn’t have a bit of synthetic in it for ‘strength and durability’ . And synthetic materials for socks aren’t warm enough anyways. And I only purchase organic cotton material…but 100% organic cotton would never be warm enough and probably way too thick for everyday boots if they somehow could be warm enough. Second hand isn’t an option in this case either. I even bought some yarn and a pattern to make my own to replace my old fast fashion brand socks. It was really difficult to find a good sock yarn that doesn’t have any synthetic fibres. I haven’t got very far because I am having back/ neck problems that often slow down or stop me from knitting. My old socks were quite perfect technically. They were very light weight, just the right length, came in the two colors I need and super warm. Shopping with values/ ethics isn’t always easy…worth it, but not easy. I’d appreciate anything you could suggest to help me out.
just placed an order on earth hero! love everything about this company and i cant wait for all my ~eco~ products to arrive!!!
I don’t know if you know, but next weekend there’s the Texas Veggie Fair in DFW. The Sustainable Duo will also be speaking there!
I see that Capilano tee 👀🙌🏽
Thank you so much for the camping tips. But that Chipmunk at the end is too cute! 🐿️
I go hiking and camping quite a bit, and to be honest: it is the time when I use the most single use plastic. I have been thinking about buying silicone bags for snacks and breakfast, but I have not yet done it because I’m afraid of the weight of them. That’s not a problem for a day or two, but for when we go for a week or more and carry all our food. Also you cannot bring bread and fruits for long hikes. (But we have made our own snackbars 🙂 For now I’m choosing to focus on making my everyday life more sustainable, and I’m hoping to get to camping later on.
Loved This Vid and all the little Ideas, but Please look into Cookin in a Can
Most have a Plastic lining that melts onto if not at the least leaches BPA into the Food when used for Cooking
if You are to use a can in the future, i recommend bringing a can You already opened and cleaned from Home as a Lightweight Cooking Pot, but first, in a well ventilated are or outside, burn the Plastic liner out of it
-a torch works
-placing it in a Fire at Home
-building a little twig fire inside the can while it sits on somewhere Fire Safe
Like in a Fire Pit, or on a Brick in the Yard
If You are to do it indoors it will create a small amount of toxic fumes
i used to Cook in my Cans all the Time until i found out
Now i have a little Wood Stove made from Cans, but i pre burned them out before use
Happy and Healthy Camping Everyone
Oh my goodness, yes! I like this a lot. Those baggies seem really handy. Earthhero seems lovely; however, there’s not something I need.
You can also use orange peels for a fire starter
Keep up the good work! 🙂
Great vid! Very imaginative!😄
I wanted to say thank you for inspiring me to go zero waste. I’m 17 and I’ve stopped using plastic and I’m eating healthier. I’ve completely eliminated all the plastic in my life. I’ve also been wearing more sustainable clothing. And I bought recycled headphones and a plea case.
The diy fire starter BLEW MY MIND! That was so cool! I don’t know if anyone else loved that I swear I’m not a pyromaniac just thought it was really creative 😅
Eating out of the can is good and all, but looks difficult. Collapsable bowls really come in handy when camping. (You can usually find collapsable silicone ones at pet stores).
10:32 *Madison is so funny.* 😂👌
The best thing ever was buying a second hand queen size sleeping bag! Originally like 150+ got for 45 bucks! Lol check Facebook market always ahaha
Also you introduced me to house of marley and I am not disappointed in their products! Great sound quality I highly recommend
So glad u made this video! I went camping with my horses a few times this year and was stumped at a few things!
omg that chipmunk at the end was so cute <3 also great video!!! i liked seeing you and madison
yall are dope
Omg I found your videos a few days ago and I love your channel soooooo much, keep up the good work Shelby love ya 💜💜
How did you guys manage water while camping? I feel like I create so much plastic waste, because I don’t have that many reusable bottles and would rather bring too much water than not enough
A camping Meetup would be so nice to have! ( We car camp for cross country road trips btw)
Dude, I got an Eileen Fisher top and it is seriously the most comfortable fabric ever. I got tencel pajama pants and they breathe very well. I’m also going to try some girlfriend leggings. Very nice recommendations.
Could you do a video on what to do with unconventional things you want to get rid of? I recently went through my closet and have 20+ hangers I just don’t need anymore also an old phone. Just an idea! I love your content!
Love the vid! ALSO Is it possible to include a product I see a lot on your next anti-haul. MINIBRANDS. It’s literally plastic balls of smaller unusable plastic replicas of everyday items. It’s so wasteful and i see it on TikTok a lot. Please look it up! Thanks!!
Great video !!
Why would you go out of state when Texas has so many camping areas?
I have a severe mosquito allergy and deet is the only thing that ive found that works :/
HI PLS DO PLUS SIZE ZERO WASTE HALLOWEEN COSTUMES
Yas I love vids featuring madison😂
Such a smart way to do the cooking! Thanks for sharing your tips 🙂
If you’re doing a sock video and haven’t heard of these yet you have to try conscious step socks! They’re sold at my local fair trade store but they also have a website. I LOVE their designs, they’re made of organic cotton and each style supports a different cause! 💕
So cool that you can rent gear at REI. They are opening a store in my area later this month. I’ll have to check them out.
