Is this a new one? I’m not sure I’ve seen the doomsday cult involve weddings into their dogma
Six ways to throw a climate-friendly wedding — and save money
Tips for Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce, and anyone else planning a wedding.When my fiancée and I got engaged, we knew we wanted to celebrate our relationship in the company of our loved ones. As a climate journalist and a scientist interested in sustainability, we also knew we didn’t want our wedding to cause a lot of harm to the environment and climate. (snip)
Weddings can be beautiful, fun, affordable, and environmentally friendly, but that doesn’t happen by chance. You have to commit to it. The average U.S. wedding generates roughly 56 tons of carbon pollution. That’s over three times the amount the average American produces in a year and almost nine times more than the global average per person.
In addition to climate-warming pollution, weddings generate a lot of food and single-use plastic waste — by some estimates, the average wedding generates 400 pounds of waste.
Kiira Portet is a wedding planner in Seattle, Washington, who began prioritizing eco-friendly wedding practices after working for a luxury planning company.
Or, you can just mind your own beeswax? So, they want (and will soon demand government pass restrictions) you to
- Tighten your guest list
- Pick a location where at least 50% of your guests won’t have to fly, and hire local vendors
- Consider meat alternatives and look into venues that compost (I’m guessing this will pare the guest list down, as everyone goes “Nah, we’re good”)
- Choose a venue that is powered by renewable energy
- Use rentals or thrift items for decor, clothing, and more
- Talk about it! (annoy the f*** out of everyone involved, so they all bow out)
Seriously, does anyone possibly think Taylor and Travis are going to say “hey, Yale Climate Connections has a good point, we should do this?”
