• 0:18
  Speaker 1: even before she met me, and now Maya's you know,
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: it's just a longtime friend of all of us. Yeah,

• 0:26
  Speaker 1: want to congratulate them. Maya and Sean. Congratulations. He proposed
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: last night at the house. She always said, if you
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: ever do it, I don't want a big deal, no fanfare,
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: no restaurants and nothing like that. Yeah, and he did
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: it last night. And they went to high school together,
• 0:42

• 0:44
  Speaker 1: and they kind of linked up three years ago and

  Speaker 1: he proposed last night. So congratulations to Sean and Maya

• 1:00
  Speaker 1: So here we are on this Wednesday, April twenty second,
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: Earth Day.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: It is Earth Day.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: If you're about to get dressed love this day, maybe
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: you can dress for the planet.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there's something to keep in mind. You know how
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: we've been I think people are a little more aware
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: of what we call fast fashion. Yeah, clothing that we
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: buy that's cute, but we might not wear forever or
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: it doesn't last forever. So we want to sustain because
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: we're protecting the planet, right, So dressing sustainably. It's a
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: little different for everyone, but maybe there's something you can
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: keep in mind. When you're about to buy an outfit,
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: try and ask yourself, would I wear this thirty times?
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: It's a lot, that's a lot.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: The idea is simple, you buy something new, ask yourself
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: if you can realistically see yourself wearing it at least
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: thirty times. If the answer is no, it may be
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: worth passing. Fast fashion is one of the biggest polluters
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: out there, largely because it relies on people buying clothes
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: quickly and then discarding them just as fast. So instead
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: of impulse buying, take a moment to think things through.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Your wallet will thank you, the planet will thank you.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: A lot of people are into thrifting and secondhand and
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: you can get some beautiful pieces that way. Just stuff
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: to keep in mind is I think earth Day's a
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: beautiful day to raise awareness. Yeah, of our lovely plan.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: I'm wearing this sweatshirt for the third time. This is
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: something that producer Kristen gave me over the holidays. I'm
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: wearing a Mannheim Steamroller sweatshirt in April.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I bet she didn't think it would
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: last you until April. You know, I've got a sweater
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: on today that I thought i'd put away for this season.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Well, you went on vacation. Yeah, it was ninety degrees here.
