Derval O'Rourke: Helping the planet and staying healthy

Derval O'Rourke: it's about making small changes

I am so happy to see more and more options being made available to everyone to live a healthy lifestyle. I am even more excited to see that these options are environmentally friendly too! I’ll be talking all things earthly and have a delicious recipe for you to try now that the weather seems to finally be taking a turn for the better (I hope I didn’t just jinx it!).

Without even thinking about it, I can think of so many ways we can help the environment without compromising a healthy lifestyle. In a way, a healthy lifestyle should have the environment included. Remember when we were small, we were always told “leave any place in better condition than how you found it!” This was drummed home by teachers and parents growing up and it has become part of my DNA. So, it stands to reason that I want to leave this earth in a better state than I found it.
