About this blog

One Degree from Earth was originally the name of a website selling local, eco-friendly household products that I had hoped to establish. I've since decided to do other things with my time, but when I was thinking of a title for my blog, I figured this one could work on more than one level and encompass all that I intend to write about on here. Being "one degree from earth" means getting closer to the earth in what we consume (or don't), what we believe, and what we engage in. It is to remember that we are made of and sustained by this planet and everything we do affects it. In this sense, this blog is an exploration of the boundaries between ourselves and the world around us—whether through yoga, biking, or nutrition—via my experiences and intellectual pursuits. I hope that my writings will bring you light and enlightenment, and every day one degree closer to where you end and the world begins.
