Not going to lie, she’s one of my favorite people from buzzfeed. She’s so keen on helping out environment and making a difference (both personal and environmental) which is inspiring.
I love this girl she is super cute (her nose is wonderful with the little freckles) she is a modern Hippy trying her best to live a life that does not just take from the planet. I love when her videos pop to see what she is trying this time. And they always give me a new insight to life and where we can better ourselves in some small way. Like trying not to make as much trash as we do.
Dave Meades did you just assume all of the haters make tons of trash? I am definitely a hater but I don't produce an absurd amount of trash and I don't litter.
If you are finding it hard at first, what my family did was we made an eco brick with any plastic we couldn't recycle. You could look it up, there's plenty of info about them online.
When you need to buy something, I'd say to always be thinking, do I have something at home that I could use for this purpose? Or could I borrow it? Minimising consumption is a good way to reduce waste! As for food waste, just do your best within your budget to reduce packaging.
I want to do the same. The first thing I want to do is completely stop using plastic water bottles because I have 2 reusable ones and a big 2 litter one. It’s easy and saves so much waste. I’m going to try to bring my own cup when getting coffee out from now one too. I don’t really know how to start doing zero waste but I’m definitely going to be doing thsi
Imagine the rest of those insufferable Buzzfeed SJW doing that kind of outdoor videos. "Manspreading in the Grand Canyon: will tourists mind?" "Are gays allowed in the forest?" "Why is nobody growing pumpkins on the PCT?
you obviously didn't read the comments made at the time that i wrote my comment. People went on and on about how nobody cares about what she's doing and so on. I wouldn't just make something like that up. Why would i ?
You guys are so weird making fun of her or asking why this video should matter. She's showing you that you can do something, like backpacking for example, without creating trash on your journey. This is just one example of something you can do without making trash and hurting the environment. If you've seen some of her other videos you'd know she's passionate about not creating a ton of waste / unnecessary garbage that will end up in a landfill. Maybe use common sense and see why a video demonstrating this stuff can be important.
Josh Jonathan this is about educating a wide population. Loads of people watch buzzfeed and it's good that this is a video they are doing! It has a lot of different messages: you can create zero waste, women can travel by themselves, doing something for yourself can help you figure out some things in life.
Josh Jonathan what was the point of your comment? Of course other people backpack without creating a bunch of garbage but she’s using the platform of buzzfeed to show a huge audience that you can do every day things without leaving trash everywhere. It’s important to showcase this considering how much garbage is in our environment currently.
I hope you can make zero waste wedding series.. it would be super fun to watch. Collaborate with tasty for the foods and nifty for decoration.. I know its a big project, but if youcan doccument it all process, i hope more people will get more excited for this zero waste / no plastick life style.
If your shoulders are hurting the weight of your backpack is the wrong place, it should be in the strap around your waist not on your shoulders - in future sit on the ground push your backpack up and tighten the waist strap really tightly this should relieve the strain on your shoulders xx
I really don't understand the negative comments? This is wholesome and inspiring and she's so sweet and positive like I really love her vibes, I admire her inner strength and sense of self. Love her vids wanna see more! 🖤
I'm not quite sure why some people are complaining or are confused. This is the same sort of things vloggers do she just made a better quality video. I know some people find her annoying but you just have to try and warm up to her. After watching enough of her videos you'll like her more. ❤
This is definitely a great way to release stress and get out of your comfort zone and along the way, you even made a couple of friends. I believe that you are strong, independent, selfless, and caring women standing out for others, yourself, and the environment.
Josh Jonathan you have to befriend people when you backpack so you can learn from them or rely on one another for help but obviously be cautious and use your best judgement
I don't get why there's so many people hating on this video. If you don't like and appreciate zero waste video's don't watch it? And there's so many people commenting about the purpose of this video, and it's called "Caring for your body and the planet", you should try it sometime.
You should really try the 3 month hiking “tour” over New Zealand. My aunt did it, she did say it was exhausting, but the moment you get home and have finished the walk is a beautiful moment and you can be really proud of yourself. Also New Zealand is one of the most beautiful country’s I’ve ever traveled to. I know that it’s a change 3days -> 3 months but I believe you’d be able to do it
The track is known as Te Araroa and stretches from cape reinga the northernmost point of the country to bluff the most southern point of the country. It is a stunning track but definitely requires some advanced skills because there are times where you are walking up to 11 days without coming to a settlement, so it is just you and anyone else walking the te araroa. But New Zealand offers some really good and unique tracks.
„I woke up before my alarm. I‘m very ready.“ is such a powerful sentence. Others would say they‘re nervous, which she was probably too, but turning that nervous feeling into excitement and confidence is one of the best things you can do. Keep it up Ari, you strong human being!
Hugo Gonzalez I have a ? About zero waste. Is it necessary to take your apple cores back w you to compost? Wouldn’t it be acceptable to leave them behind ( off the trail) for animals/ insects to consume? Since it’s obviously biodegradable ...
@@natalierozean5989 it depends. Usually, you can, and it would only be common sense to leave compost behind (fruit peels, apple cores, etc), but I know that some parks don't allow hikers to leave organic matter behind. It's best to ask park managers/land owners before your hike.
This is one of the best videos I have seen on youtube. I love the energy that you have and perspective that you share. This video makes me want to go hiking and experience nature more! I know this video was put out a while ago, but I just wanted to share my opinion. I hope you keep producing and sharing your perspective with the TH-cam community.

Nice video but note to everyone: don’t hike alone without letting people know what trail you’re going on, and always keeping people updated on your location.
I think going to a local shop to buy milk is more dangerous. It’s not like she went anywhere remote. But hey it’s buzzfeed. The den of leftist propaganda:P
Congratulations on meeting your goal. 32 miles is awesome. So cool you met a new friend. I hope you keep in touch. I hope you were able to figure out what you needed too.
First of all: I think it's great that Ari tried herself at backpacking. And it's a great video. It shows why we all love this activity so much: the views, the physical exercise, the interactions with fellow hikers, the self reflection, the lessons learned ... She really seemed to enjoy herself. Kudos to her for figuring out her body and adapting on the trail. That's some advanced backpacker stuff right there! And she seemed to be well prepared generally, with her gear, the mapping material, the food etc... But I also gotta say that this "zero waste approach" is nothing new, let alone original. Quite the opposite: It is actually quite common for backpackers/hikers to minimize any potential for waste from the get go and pack out any trash. That is what we call "Leave No Trace" ethics - LNT in short. It consists of 7 principles, all aimed at minimizing your impact on the environment, by - simply put - leaving the outdoors just as you found 'em. AND: waste is weight you HAVE to carry. That's why backpackers try and start with as little waste potential as possible. Littering is just not an option. As for the Jetboil at 3:41 ... You don't need the middle piece when only boiling water in a pod. The Jetboil is a compact cooking system. Meaning the pod connects directly to the stove. That middle piece is only needed when using a frying pan or a pod from a different system or brand. It allows you to use devices which would not directly connect to the stove :) Anyway, this was meant as additional information. And not as criticism. The outdoor community is a very welcoming and inclusive community. We all love to see new faces out here and we are all eager to help newcomers in any way we can.
AHRES Müller No the problem is that the school is too damn big😂. Even my friends that are in track and the fast paced sports complain about it too, but other than that, what IS the real problem?
She's the one of the best BuzzFeed employee that make their company can keep producing a good content. And in other way, if she left BuzzFeed and make a channel by herself like Safiya did, she's gonna a best youtuber with unique and good content inside. Good job girl, keep them coming...👏👌
you'd probably like the biolite; it uses twigs and sticks on campsite to have a cooking fire. i loved this video! would love to see more of your backpacking adventures in the future.
Conner lee Carey it's great but too heavy for backpacking. Plus depending on locations you're not permitted to use the wood around you because they don't want you to impact the ecosystem by removing its nutrients! So always research where you're going!

I would love Ari to do a guide to zero waste because I really want to move into it but i don’t know how to introduce it into my life

If you are finding it hard at first, what my family did was we made an eco brick with any plastic we couldn't recycle. You could look it up, there's plenty of info about them online.

She cant. Buzzfeed wont allow her

Ari always makes good content. Not everyone can do this kind of hiking alone. Good job!
This woman inspires me endlessly!!
why is everybody so mean to her. She did a good job! Before talking down on her, you people should try hiking yourselves.

you obviously didn't read the comments made at the time that i wrote my comment. People went on and on about how nobody cares about what she's doing and so on. I wouldn't just make something like that up. Why would i ?
"..I had my tea, I went number two.."
Honestly, doing a 2 in a new place and new situation is a big deal - this was great

And she seemed to be well prepared generally, with her gear, the mapping material, the food etc...

It consists of 7 principles, all aimed at minimizing your impact on the environment, by - simply put - leaving the outdoors just as you found 'em. AND: waste is weight you HAVE to carry. That's why backpackers try and start with as little waste potential as possible. Littering is just not an option.
As for the Jetboil at 3:41 ... You don't need the middle piece when only boiling water in a pod. The Jetboil is a compact cooking system. Meaning the pod connects directly to the stove. That middle piece is only needed when using a frying pan or a pod from a different system or brand. It allows you to use devices which would not directly connect to the stove :)
Anyway, this was meant as additional information. And not as criticism. The outdoor community is a very welcoming and inclusive community. We all love to see new faces out here and we are all eager to help newcomers in any way we can.
I can barely walk to my next class without getting winded..and theyre ALL downstairs😂

AHRES Müller No the problem is that the school is too damn big😂. Even my friends that are in track and the fast paced sports complain about it too, but other than that, what IS the real problem?

Shazia Asad hopefully
She's the one of the best BuzzFeed employee that make their company can keep producing a good content. And in other way, if she left BuzzFeed and make a channel by herself like Safiya did, she's gonna a best youtuber with unique and good content inside.
Good job girl, keep them coming...👏👌
Great job!! I’m glad you met a friendly John along the way. I’m sorry about your grandpa.
you'd probably like the biolite; it uses twigs and sticks on campsite to have a cooking fire. i loved this video! would love to see more of your backpacking adventures in the future.
Conner lee Carey it's great but too heavy for backpacking. Plus depending on locations you're not permitted to use the wood around you because they don't want you to impact the ecosystem by removing its nutrients! So always research where you're going!
CM.Vee Didn’t know that; good info! Thanks
Also because of the wild fire danger, fires are often totally banned in parts of California.
I love how all of us are shipping you and John. Great video.
