“Green” is more than a trend, it affects us all, every day – that’s a good thing! And even with small steps you can improve your ECOLOGICAL footprint.
First wake up and come to terms with your head: What day is it today? What to-dos do you have? Cleaning, shopping, cooking, working from home … and should you still be doing something good for the environment? Phew!
Stay relaxed, it’s all very easy: “Sustainability”, the abstract term, is on everyone’s lips, now it just has to click with the individual. Even small rituals and simple habits in the morning, noon and evening help to rethink. And manufacturers offer smart alternatives to environmental sins – suitable for everyday use, smartly packaged, with great intrinsic values: toilet paper that supports non-profit sanitary projects, fairly produced textiles, furniture made from rubbish, biodegradable cosmetics … they all do a good job. And that little bit of household chores is twice as much fun.
