      When you need to buy something, I'd say to always be thinking, do I have something at home that I could use for this purpose? Or could I borrow it? Minimising consumption is a good way to reduce waste! As for food waste, just do your best within your budget to reduce packaging.

  • @DirtMoss
    @DirtMoss Před 6 lety +1660

    You guys are so weird making fun of her or asking why this video should matter. She's showing you that you can do something, like backpacking for example, without creating trash on your journey. This is just one example of something you can do without making trash and hurting the environment. If you've seen some of her other videos you'd know she's passionate about not creating a ton of waste / unnecessary garbage that will end up in a landfill. Maybe use common sense and see why a video demonstrating this stuff can be important.

    • @Posh1G

      Josh Jonathan this is about educating a wide population. Loads of people watch buzzfeed and it's good that this is a video they are doing! It has a lot of different messages: you can create zero waste, women can travel by themselves, doing something for yourself can help you figure out some things in life.

    • @halogenn_

    • @DirtMoss
      @DirtMoss Před 6 lety +18

      Josh Jonathan what was the point of your comment? Of course other people backpack without creating a bunch of garbage but she’s using the platform of buzzfeed to show a huge audience that you can do every day things without leaving trash everywhere. It’s important to showcase this considering how much garbage is in our environment currently.

    First of all: I think it's great that Ari tried herself at backpacking. And it's a great video. It shows why we all love this activity so much: the views, the physical exercise, the interactions with fellow hikers, the self reflection, the lessons learned ... She really seemed to enjoy herself. Kudos to her for figuring out her body and adapting on the trail. That's some advanced backpacker stuff right there! And she seemed to be well prepared generally, with her gear, the mapping material, the food etc...
    But I also gotta say that this "zero waste approach" is nothing new, let alone original. Quite the opposite: It is actually quite common for backpackers/hikers to minimize any potential for waste from the get go and pack out any trash. That is what we call "Leave No Trace" ethics - LNT in short. It consists of 7 principles, all aimed at minimizing your impact on the environment, by - simply put - leaving the outdoors just as you found 'em. AND: waste is weight you HAVE to carry. That's why backpackers try and start with as little waste potential as possible. Littering is just not an option.
    As for the Jetboil at 3:41 ... You don't need the middle piece when only boiling water in a pod. The Jetboil is a compact cooking system. Meaning the pod connects directly to the stove. That middle piece is only needed when using a frying pan or a pod from a different system or brand. It allows you to use devices which would not directly connect to the stove :)
    Anyway, this was meant as additional information. And not as criticism. The outdoor community is a very welcoming and inclusive community. We all love to see new faces out here and we are all eager to help newcomers in any way we can.

    This is one of the best videos I have seen on youtube. I love the energy that you have and perspective that you share. This video makes me want to go hiking and experience nature more! I know this video was put out a while ago, but I just wanted to share my opinion. I hope you keep producing and sharing your perspective with the CZcams community.

    I don't get why there's so many people hating on this video. If you don't like and appreciate zero waste video's don't watch it? And there's so many people commenting about the purpose of this video, and it's called "Caring for your body and the planet", you should try it sometime.
