Green Pledges from your colleagues
We’ve asked our colleagues what they’ll be doing to be more green. Here's what they have to say:
"I pledge to cut down on waste from disposable items. I've already started doing this by using metal straws, reusable feminine hygiene products, washable paper towels made from bamboo, and reusable shopping bags! I'm taking this a step further by backing kickstarter projects that are looking to make sustainable alternatives to things we use every day!"
Melina DallaStalla AMRS
"I pledge to re use, re-wear & re-style my wardrobe and to avoid buying fast fashion by using apps like Vinted, Depop, ByRotation and Good On You. I will spread awareness about the negative impact of fast fashion on the environment and support brands that prioritize sustainability in their production processes."
Charlotte Southey EMEA
"We bee-keep, have an organic garden and visit the thrift store... with so many donations that they know us by name. But I don't think we are doing enough. I’m committing to repairing and reusing instead of disposing and joining a beach clean-up program."
Jeff Kalpak AMRS
"I pledge to thrift more of my clothes and stay away from fast fashion. I plan to switch my dog's potty bags to something sustainable. I compost all food scraps and have eliminated almost all single use plastics from my life. I also rarely complain about paper straws now."
Tali Ben-Lev AMRS
"I pledge to be more sustainable friendly at home by minimizing the usage of appliances that I would normally use. Hang drying my clothes rather than using the dryer, running the dishwasher only on a full load, using more natural lighting- these are some changes that are simple and easy to do at home!"
Craig Fernandez APAC
"I pledge to challenge my team and colleagues to see how little plastic they can use during Earth Month."
