Sustainability is a lifestyle. It means putting the bottle in the recycling bin, or better -- using a reusable water bottle. It means storing food in glass containers instead of the throwaway plastics. But when it's time to have friends over -- and you don't want to be up all night washing wine glasses and every dish in your cupboard -- you take the night off -- sorry, Planet Earth!
In comes Susty Party, a fun startup out of Brooklyn aiming to arm us with planet-friendly supplies for your next get-together.
Founder Emily Doubliet is herself a nature lover and thrower of parties, and joins us today to talk about the sustainable lifestyle. We'll look at brands such as Zady and Nearly Newlywed which hope to make clothing less "disposable."
