Need some inspo on how to help reduce your carbon footprint and environmental impact? Read on!
- Shop & sell responsibly
- ποΈ Buy from:
- Curtsy, duh — but really, the best way to keep up with fashion trends sustainably is to buy secondhand.
- Facebook Marketplace — there are some GREAT finds out there for furniture. West Elm, Pottery Barn, vintage. Fun fact: our office furniture is all thrifted off of FB Marketplace thanks to our very own Clags!
- Remake — a Curtsy partner, Remake has a brand directory where they rate brands you already know & love based on factors including: Human Rights, Climate, Water, and Waste. Discover new brands on there & shop them on Curtsy
- β»οΈ Give items a second, third, fourth, etc. life
- Don’t waste any of your precious time in person at the thrift store. And do you really know where items you donate end up in? The majority end up in landfills. Instead, sell your items on a resale platform like Curtsy so you know they’re not going to end up in a landfill after you’re done with them.

- ποΈ Buy from:
- Rethink your beauty & kitchen tools
- π Beauty — Replace your disposable cotton swabs & pads with something reusable! I personally used to use those disposable make up wipes everyday but have since replaced them with reusable pads & a MakeUp Eraser
- π§ Eat/drink — Try replacing your sandwich bags & saran wrap with beeswax wraps & silicone sandwich bags.Do you still drink your coffee & tea out of paper cups? Do you still buy plastic water bottles? Try reusable tumblers and mugs like these instead. There are SO many options out there.
- Watch these documentaries
- π The True Cost — an eyeopening deep dive into the fast fashion industry
- π Seaspiracy — how our diets affect our ocean friends
- π David Attenborough: A Life on Our Planet — our impact on nature
- Commute consciously — now there are plenty of ways to get around: carpool with friends, bike, scooter/moped, take public transportation, or get some fresh air and walk. π²π΄π΅
