Single-use items have an awful impact on our ecological footprint. Our minds often try to justify or minimize their consequence, but there’s no way around it. They leave a nasty trace. Luckily, we can steer around and head in a direction that is more environmentally responsible with just a few easy product swaps. And over the long run, these reusable products actually become money savers. Here are our top-10 faves.

Wheat straw is the stem that’s left behind once wheat grains have been harvested. So, in other words, we can put the leftovers of agriculture to good use. And let’s face it, the agricultural “waste” that is wheat straw is readily available, not to mention a highly renewable resource. Ironic, isn’t it? The greatest alternative material to plastic has been sitting right under our nose all this time.

Did you know that in Canada, we throw away 25% more garbage during the holidays? But with the Furoshiki technique, a simple piece of fabric will make it possible to wrap a gift in an environmentally friendly way while giving it style.

The holidays are upon us, and along with it the exciting puzzling game of what to get for whom. And let’s face it, there’s a part in all of us that wants to nail that perfect gift. You know, the gift that’s different from the usual classics. The gift that stands out. The gift that leads to interesting conversations. The gift that will be useful instead of being forgotten after a few weeks. Well, that perfect gift is an eco-friendly gift (no joke!).
