How sustainable is your lifestyle? While I am all about green living, I must admit to the indulgence in the convenience and comfort of the occasional K-cup. With the guidance of former athlete and fitness guru, author Cat Smiley and her recently released book, The Planet Friendly Diet, I can take actionable steps toward sustainability. This book is specifically designed for laying the foundation for optimized health and minimized carbon footprints on the planet.
