The world has seen a lot of catastrophic incidents over the years in which a myriad of innocent people lost their lives. The climate change issue is a serious one and needs to be taken seriously by all countries. As individuals, we need to understand the importance of going green more than ever.

In this blog, I will try and explain the importance of each of us to use environmentally friendly products.

The environment remains undisturbed: The foremost significant benefit of using sustainable products is the environment is not harmed. It does not have to suffer to fulfill human beings' in satiate needs. It’s when the ecological cycle and environment are disturbed, we see cataclysmic events in the world. We need surroundings and nature until forever for every basic necessity, thus it should not be exploited.

Economically Viable: Another advantage of using such organic products is they are pocket friendly and thus you can save substantial money on every purchase. For example, when you take your own ‘Keep Cup’, you can often get your take away coffee at 50c less. Things like keep cups and other similar environmentally friendly products come in various attractive colours and designs.

Low Maintenance: These products require low maintenance and have a longer life compared to other contemporary products. For instance, Mesh Produce Bags are reusable bags that can be used for grocery shopping for months. You just have to wash them once and use them to keep all your groceries fresh from the supermarket to your kitchen.

Moreover, these products save a lot of raw material as they are manufactured with an optimum quantity of material. As a result, the waste created is abysmally low which is good for the environment.

One thing we should never forget is that by protecting the environment, we are protecting ourselves and our future generations. It is highly advisable to use environmentally friendly products to support the four pillars of sustainability: human, economic, social and environmental.
