SustainableLife Turns 5!

Happy 5th Anniversary to my #SustainableLife blog series -- a near-daily curation of headlines of progress across themes of sustainable living aiming to inspire and show the art of the possible! So, what was featured in Post #1 on January 16, 2019? This story linked here (https://bit.ly/3vJQ1Y4) from Mary Mazzoni of TriplePundit on 12 plant-based foods coming to market in 2019. Given all of the evolution in the plant-based food sector, a fun trip down memory line to revisit this 2019 piece, including news from Impossible Foods, Beyond Meat, Good Catch, Califia Farms, Purple Carrot, Chobani, Starbucks, Taco Bell, McDonald's, Nestlé, Unilever and Carl's Jr.

To celebrate the 5th anniversary of the #SustainableLife series, a few fun facts:

636: number of sustainable living posts done since 1/16/19

6,782: number of sustainable living articles featured

1,913: number of brands/orgs featured (note: tracking only covers 2 years)

2,611,699: number of views on LinkedIn -- not huge numbers but quality over quantity :)

THANK YOU to anyone who has ever taken a look, read an article, reshared a post, given words of encouragement. Special THANK YOU to the 1,913+ brands and orgs for your leadership in advancing sustainable living options and solutions -- giving me the progress to highlight.

My hope: that this personal passion project and labor of love has helped inform and possibly even inspire some folks out there to keep innovating. Here's to the next five years!
