DO WELL: OUR CREATIVE DIRECTOR’S EVERYDAY ECO-FRIENDLY TIPS
Posted on Mar 10, 2023
When it comes to going green, the little things add up. Our creative director, Alice, has been adjusting her daily routines to cut back on her environmental impact and was nice enough to share some tips with us in celebration of Earth Day. See how everything from surprising your dry cleaner to rethinking wrapping paper can make a positive change.
BYO UTENSILS
“I keep a set of silverware with me all the time, so I never have to use disposable cutlery—I’m totally that person at the salad bar with my own spork.”
EMBRACE BAG-CEPTION
“Stick a rolled-up tote in your everyday bag for impromptu shopping—it always feels good to say no to the plastic option at checkout and some places even offer a discount for doing so.”
SURPRISE YOUR DRY CLEANER
“Bring those wire hangers back so they can be used again. My dry cleaner thought I was weird the first time—but now he thanks me. Side note: Always look for eco-friendly dry cleaning options. There are so many out there these days!”
BE CREATIVELY GIFTED
“I don’t buy wrapping paper. I make my own with pages from magazines or newspapers I have hanging around at home—just tape them together and draw on them. It makes the present feel more special because you put in the extra effort.”
Thanks, Alice. Let’s keep making our planet happy, even after Earth Day—learn more about Do Well initiatives we’ve got going on all year long right here.
