In this episode, we had the pleasure of speaking with Paula Huerta, a licensed architect, sustainability & circular economy consultant, and passionate advocate for environmental solutions. Paula, a friend of Bonnie’s living in Lombok, Indonesia (the island next to Bali), shares how she stays motivated by staying educated and up-to-date on the latest sustainability solutions available and why she is always willing to get her hands dirty to bring those solutions to her own community. Listening to Paula, you can’t help but feel inspired by her never ending passion.

A few takeaways you'll get from this episode: 

• An explanation of how black soldier flies can help us convert organic waste on a massive scale, converting it into valuable larvae, which can be used as high-protein animal feed
• The need for more sustainable agricultural practices to maintain a healthy balance between ecosystems
• Encouragement to take small steps towards sustainability and to connect with like-minded individuals in your community

Our favourite quote:

"When you're beginning and don't know how to start, the best way is to see what others are doing and offer your help." - Paula
