A sustainable lifestyle can be a major upgrade!
“Green,” “eco” and “sustainable” are buzzwords thrown around just about everywhere these days, but a recent Harvard Business Review noted that 65% of consumers surveyed said that while they want to buy purpose-driven brands that advocate for sustainability, only about 26% actually do. Those choices can have a big impact. Unilever, a global manufacturer of consumer products, estimates that almost 70% of its greenhouse gas footprint depends on which products customers choose and whether they use and dispose of them in a sustainable way. From recycling and composting to patronizing businesses that support eco-friendly goals and adjusting your home environment to prioritize health, this feature is packed with news you can use. The experts we spoke with echo the same sentiment: Small changes can make a big difference. Read on to find out how you might incorporate greener practices into your life for delightful results.
