I’m an absolute podcast junkie. And my favorite genres are true crime and sustainability – this blog is not THAT dark yet, so today we’re talking about the latter.
I find that podcasts are such an amazing way to learn new stuff. While driving, exercising, doing the dishes, or waiting to fall asleep, you can listen to them anytime, anywhere. Super convenient.
Something I love about podcasts about sustainability and the environment is how accessible they make green living. They talk about facts, but they do it in such a conversational and lighthearted way that they empower us instead of making us feel helpless and all eco-anxious.
I discovered podcasts about sustainability just a couple of months ago, and I already have a few favorites – if you don’t see your favorite podcast here, tell me in the comments so that I can listen to it too!

Podcasts on Sustainability
Positively Green Podcast
Listening to this podcast feels like you’re having a cozy chat over coffee with friends.
Kelsey and Becca, the hosts, talk about the sustainable side of food and diet, beauty,…even about holistic dog care.
They start each episode talking about their sustainable “pains and gains”, and chatting about positive news – you know we love some happy eco news here.
I find it really empowering because they address the challenges of sustainability in a very light and engaging way. They don’t want us to feel overwhelmed or guilty about the climate crisis, quite the opposite. They try to show us that having a positive environmental impact can be really, really easy.
After listening to their weekly episode, you’ll have a new and actionable eco tip to put into practice. Just as this blog, Positively Green is about progress, not perfection.
