I love supporting Etsy and their fabulous artisans! I especially love supporting them when they are putting time and effort into creating products in eco-friendly manners. Even more so, when those products help us consumers shop in eco-friendly manners (like a Zero Waste lifestyle)! It’s a win-win!
What is Zero Waste?
“Zero Waste is a philosophy and a design principle for the 21st Century. It includes ‘recycling’ but goes beyond recycling by taking a ‘whole system’ approach to the vast flow of resources and waste through human society.
Zero Waste maximizes recycling, minimizes waste, reduces consumption and ensures that products are made to be reused, repaired or recycled back into nature or the marketplace.”
