Renate

Although I am far from perfect, I have always wanted to live simply and tread lightly in order to lessen my impact on nonhuman animals and the Earth. I don't have children and hope this might give other species a little more breathing room. In addition, I try to eat a predominantly vegan/vegetarian diet and spend time advocating for other animals. These days, I buy very little and purchase almost all of my clothes second-hand. I am privileged enough to live without a mortgage and am attempting to opt out of our capitalist system as much as possible.
