Happy November Definers! This month we are continuing our break and resharing a listener favorite, Episode #52: Feminine Hygiene Products with Celia Pool and Alec Mills of DAME.  Unfortunately, the artificial sensitivities around the topic of this episode – feminine hygiene products – have hindered widespread discussion of the significant environmental and social issues associated with these products. Join us as we investigate the many sustainability issues they affect, from environmental footprints and social acceptance to female genital health and access and equity.

If you have been wondering about the latest with DAME, a company that has reimagined period products with more comfortable and sustainable alternatives, in this replay episode we have included some of the latest updates from the company. We hope you enjoy the listen!

As a reminder, we are accepting applications from Definers to take over the show. More details are in the September episode. If you are interested in this opportunity, please make sure to apply ASAP as we’re starting to review applications! You can email us with your interest and why you should take over at hosts@sustainabilitydefined.com.

Sustainability Defined is the podcast that defines sustainability, one concept (and bad joke) at a time. Hosted by Jay Siegel and Scott Breen.  Each episode focuses on a single topic that helps push sustainability forward. We explain each topic with the help of an experienced pro, place it within our organizational tree, and help our listeners define what exactly sustainability is, episode by episode.   

We have divided our organizational tree into the following seven sectors: 

Energy 

Cities 

Natural Environment 

Transportation 

Business 

Policy 

Social 

Each episode is categorized under one of our sectors and visually depicted within our organizational tree.  The more episodes we complete, the more the tree will visually define what exactly sustainability means.
