In this category I share all the books, documentaries, films, series and podcasts that I personally think you should know about.

I value personal growth since I think it can make us better and more compassionate person. Good rescources can play a role in this personal growth for me personally.

Eating Animals by Jonathan Safran Foer

Eating Animals by Jonathan Safran Foer

Posted on July 17, 2017February 10, 2025

Eating Animals by Jonathan Safran Foer is an elucidation. And I barely ever read those. Not since those were mandatory in high school. The ones I read then were extremely boring. But Eating Animals is not boring at all. In fact, I think it’s the best book I’ve read about this subject so far. And…

Documentary: The 11th Hour

Documentary: The 11th Hour

Posted on May 8, 2017February 11, 2025

Some documentaries make me nervous. Nervous for what’s to come, but also nervous about what’s happening now already. The 11th Hour is such a documentary, because it really brings across a message: we need to combat climate change if we still want to live on this planet for the coming decades. And that’s why I…

Posted on May 1, 2017February 11, 2025

The first time that I can remember seeing a dolphin is one I remember well. I was 11 years old and on a holiday in Egypt. The dolphins swam by our boat! A fantastic moment for everybody on the boat and dolphins too I hope. Now, 7 years later, I see dolphins again. Very different,…

The Blue Zones by Dan Buettner

Posted on February 20, 2017February 11, 2025

Longevity fascinates me. Why do some people live 70 years? And why do others live 110 years? Some people die extremely fit still and some die in pain. How does this work? This is not a post in which I am going to tell you how you’ll live 110 years, because well, I simply can’t….

The Story of Stuff by Annie Leonard

Posted on January 30, 2017February 12, 2025

‘How our obsession with stuff is trashing the planet, our communities and our health – and a vision for change’. Yes, she immediately says the right thing, huh? This is what Annie Leonard says about ‘The Story of Stuff’, this line is written on the front of the book. I read the book during my…

What You Should Know About Planned Obsolescene

What you should know about planned obsolescence

Posted on January 9, 2017February 12, 2025

This documentary was on my list for a long time, but well, my list of documentaries I still want to see is endless anyway. The Light Bulb Conspiracy is a documentary of 52 minutes (short) about planned obsolescence. Planned obsolescence, what? Planned obsolescence of products, it exists.

ABOUT ME

 

when a teen goes green

Hi! My name is Romee and I live an eco-positive life. An eco-positive lifestyle is a lifestyle with more positive than negative impact on beautiful planet earth. Compared to most people, I live extremely sustainable. I don’t fly, eat meat or animal products, buy only secondhand clothing, etc. On the other hand, I try to help others as much as I can by donating a big chunk of my income, donating plasma, donating poop (yes!), volunteering, etc. On this blog you can read all about my lifestyle with only positive impact. I also have a Dutch Youtube channel (@duurzaamleven) and Dutch Instagram (@duurzaamlevenro). If you have specific questions for me, feel free to ask me anything.

Yours sincerely,
Romee (she/her)
