It is amazing how well Mother Earth is doing now that we are all staying in our rooms. Our environment is only benefiting from the quarantine and that is what many experts and environmentalists also note. It is therefore very important to maintain our ecological lifestyle. And with the help of the motivational words and posts of these seven eco-warriors on Instagram that shouldn’t be a problem at all.

She did an internship at a sustainable clothing brand and soon noticed the importance of an ecological fashion industry.

She grew up in the indigenous tribe of Otomi-Toltec, where the environment and the health of Mother Earth are central. After moving to the United States, Xiye decided to live there as ecologically as possible and encourage others to do the same. ‘It is your generational responsibility to leave the world more beautiful than if you ended up on it. That’s what my parents have always taught me,” she said in an interview with Hello Giggles.
