Environmental – Luxury – The New Driver of Social and Environmental Conscience? | environmental luxury
When cleaning pubs, clubs, leisure facilities and hotels, you require a special commitment to the Health and Safety challenges by the cleaners, your staff and the public. It is important to find a cleaning company that embraces that challenge and sees it as an opportunity to demonstrate commitment to quality fulfillment.
Firstly, before you go out and buy something, ask yourself if you really need it. If you know you can live without it, don’t buy it. Firstly you’ll save yourself some of that hard earned cash and you won’t end up having to deal with all of the packaging that today’s products are usually wrapped in. If you really don’t need, there’s a pretty good chance that you won’t even use it. If this is the case then, it will just clutter up your home until you throw it away or send it off to the charity shop requiring yet more of your precious time and money to get it to the shop in the first place.
Where do you buy your vegetables? Using your local greengrocer of vegetable shop is likely to save you a heap in unwanted packaging waste as they are less likely to be pre-packed in Styrofoam trays and cellophane. Unless you shop at an ethical supermarket, you have a greater chance of buying locally sourced products at the green grocer. Think about the energy that’s gone into making these packaging materials. (You can always be a little bit cheeky and hand the packaging to the teller at the checkout, but the waste is still there!)
The “new luxury” is about “being in the know” about fair trade, and environmental, animal welfare and labor standards. Though still in relative infancy, “the new luxury” is as much about creating a wealth of community and ethics, as it is about creating a wealth of material goods.
Carry out small repairs on clothing. Modern society has gotten so used to throwing out really good clothes that simply need a button sewing on or a seam re-stitched. A great idea for old jumpers is to unravel the wool (into a ball) and reuse the wool to make another garment. Even if you have a single hole in your knitwear, the chances are that the rest of the item of clothing is more than serviceable, just waiting to take on a new life. Apparently knitting is hot right now, so get that creativity going.
So before you rush out and buy it, or bin it, think about how important it is to own in the first place or get creative about a second life for the stuff you already own
