Climate change is a pressing issue we can't afford to ignore. It's the long-term alteration of Earth's average weather patterns, primarily driven by human activities like burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes.

But here's the good news: We have the power to make a difference. By reducing our carbon footprint, supporting renewable energy, and advocating for sustainable practices, we can be part of the solution to combat climate change.

It starts with awareness and action. Let's protect our planet for current and future generations. 🌏💙

Scientific literature has been making this clear since well before 1995.

This is a review paper which aggregated many sources on marine plastic pollution...

Share this to spread awareness. Follow an eco focused account. Shop as little as you can with Jeff or the Waltons, find a small business instead. Find alternatives to plastics.

When you buy local, you're not just bringing home fresh, vibrant produce; you're also reducing your exposure to pesticides and supporting a healthier community.

Choosing locally sourced goods means fewer miles traveled and less need for preservatives. It's a win for your well-being and the environment. Plus, you're nurturing the growth of local businesses and fostering a sense of community.

So, let's keep it local and reap the benefits—healthier food, a cleaner planet, and stronger communities. It's a choice that goes beyond the plate and makes a positive impact in so many ways. 🌍🌿

There are so my frivolous plastic products that have crept into our everyday life. Unfortunately, we are all guilty to some extent out of pure convenience.

If you think about it, there is just no retailer devoted to biodegradable alternatives to the conveniences of modern day life.

Before you grab plastic, think about choosing something MadeofEarth.
