Say goodbye to your bursting toiletries bag, fast fashion, and all the plastic crowding your pantry. It's time to build less trashy habits for a more sustainable and ethical life. With relatable stories, compassion, and a realistic perspective, Tara McKenna will show you how in this ultimate guide to going zero waste(ish).

We're all trapped in a wasteful convenience-based cycle, but Don’t Be Trashy offers an alternative: an approach to reducing waste that emphasizes progress over perfection. McKenna guides you month by month through a year of reducing consumption, covering:

• Decluttering and turning off the flow of stuff into your home
• Breaking up with fast fashion and developing a capsule wardrobe
• Cutting off your supply of single-use plastic in your kitchen, cleaning supplies, and bathroom
• Investing in home goods that'll last for decades without breaking the bank
• And more!

Ultimately, it's about changing your mindset to one of minimalism and conscious consumption—a mindset that’s as good for your wallet and your well-being as it is for the planet. Don't Be Trashy will guide you to your best life—one with less waste and more joy!

Back to Sustainability

Sustainability

Earthlove HQ is located on our small farm and natural apiary in Washington State. We take sustainability seriously behind the scenes too!

Packaging, Packing, & Shipping

Reduce. Reuse. Recycle is our mantra: at Earthlove, we're always look for ways to reduce our own carbon footprint and impact on our beautiful planet.
We use EcoEnclose's 100% post-consumer cardboard and GreenWrap's post-consumer crinkle shred for packing. Our box is printed with algae-based inks -- the most non-harmful inks on the planet!
We use Terra Cycle for any plastic waste that gets shipped to us from our vendors (we always ask our vendors to ship as eco-friendly as possible!)
When we're forced to use peanut packing material, it's corn-based and fully compostable (just run it under a tap and watch it dissolve!)
We wrap any item that might leak in tissue or kraft paper instead of plastic or zip lock bags
We reuse boxes, kraft paper, and other packing materials that are sent to us.

Paper, Box Magazines, and Books

All of Earthlove's paper materials, including any promos and the box magazine, are either printed on post-consumer paper or use FSC-certified paper from sustainably-managed forests. Our printer uses waterless technology to print, ensuring that water isn't wasted.
All of the books featured in our boxes are called "Last chance" books. We buy them after they've been returned from retailers so they don't end up heading to a landfill.
We do not send paper packing slips. All receipts are sent through email to reduce paper.

Giving Back

We are proud partners of 1% for the Planet. In addition, we donate to one of our environmental non-profit partners, which our members vote to support, each quarter.

Carbon Offset

Earthlove has partnered with Cloverly to give customers the opportunity to offset their carbon footprint for shipping boxes. Cloverly distributes the funds to the carbon project that is closest in distance to the customer, including farms, wind energy projects, forest regeneration, and other initiatives.
On the backend, we've partnered with Boxton to offset all carbon of shipments that head to our warehouse.
