We always create content that is easy to understand and helps empowered women, like you, spread the message in your community.

Taking the first step may seem intimidating with so much misinformation out there and all the accusations. We’ll clear the mess of it all. Our writers will provide the perfect starting place for your eco-friendly journey—one that can match your fast-paced life. Your time is important, and we want to help you use it efficiently whether it’s self-care, personal growth, or saving the environment.

Where to begin? We’ll give you options on how to start, whether you’re taking action on a budget or investing big dollar bills in your environment. First, know the subject. Alongside our comprehensible guides, we’ll recommend the best entertainment, activists, and books to inspire change. We don’t all have to be a Greta Thunberg, but we can learn to listen and make changes, perhaps starting with her 2020 documentary, I am Greta. While a documentary can’t save the world, it certainly takes the first step: spreading the word. Liz Fe creates focused content that will lead you straight to the information you need. Maybe you’ve heard of the Green New Deal, supported by an active representative, AOC. If not, don’t worry. We understand that getting all the facts straight can be difficult, especially when your days are already so full. From our articles, you’ll learn how to talk about the issues with your friends, family, employees, and coworkers to take that first step into being a part of the discussion on climate action.
Already in the know and looking for the first action to take in your life? One step every woman can easily take starts right at home: water waste reduction. Yup, that means shorter showers, and remember to turn off that tap while brushing your teeth. When we use less water, we lower the demand for energy being pumped into our house to heat and treat water, that’s less air pollution for our world. We know you’re on top of technology, so the device you have fully charged and ready for a busy day, unplug it along with any other devices that don’t get much use. Turning off lights when you leave the room and buying energy-efficient bulbs can also lead to a cleaner future— we’re looking forward to it.
Looking to commit more time or money to the environment, look no further. If you’re living it up in the city, perfect! Walking, biking, or carpooling is a great way to decrease your carbon footprint— and an easy way to fit in some exercise in your already busy day. If your lifestyle requires a vehicle, we’ll point you towards the most environmentally friendly choices; every time you head out, you’ll be making a difference.
Environment-friendly changes don’t only lead to sacrifices, Liz Fe wants to point you to the best while you do your best for the environment. If you’re a beauty guru or a fashionista looking to support the brands that care, like Lush Cosmetics or Patagonia, we can point you in their direction. Are you getting some shopping done? Remember to grab your reusable shopping bags, and we’ll guide you to the best brands that work to keep their business environmentally sustainable, and we’ll share which thrift shops are the best for your second-hand buys. Repurposing items is an excellent way to create less waste, and it saves the items that still have life in them. That tip goes both ways. That pile of old clothes that no longer fits, drop it off at your local thrift store and keep it out of landfills.
Environmental impact overlaps in all parts of life, including your kitchen. Making healthy food choices can create a significant reduction in your carbon footprint. When you buy less meat and dairy products and more plant-based products, you make a healthy choice for both your diet and the environment. Buy food locally, this helps reduce transportation costs and pollution when food travels long distances to make it to big chain grocery stores. Invest in a reusable water bottle; eliminate the plastic waste. Get rid of the disposable silverware and plates and paper napkins in your kitchen and decide to make the permanent switch to reusable cloth napkins and kitchenware.
We know your days are packed, and we want to make sure you’re getting the best information that is tailored to your needs and lifestyle. Trust us to give you the best advice that is working on all levels for you and your interests. While we all leave a footprint, we can leave a unique one behind that shows we have cared for the planet the best we could. No matter what your busy schedule requires of you, there is always a way to keep the environment in mind. Whether it’s through technology, travel, work, fashion, or social events, we will show you how to make it green. We want to empower you in all things including environmental activism. No matter where you’re looking to start in your environmentally conscious journey, Liz Fe is here to support you. We’re in this together!
