Packaging is a necessary part of our globalized economy.
Providing a barrier between your purchases and the outside world, packaging ensures hygienic conditions and reduces waste from contamination.
Especially in the case of food, packaging is what protects us from harmful disease and the spread of bacteria.

Since the industrial revolution, CO2 levels in the atmosphere
have been growing, and now are 40% higher.
Unless we reduce the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere,
huge and irreversible
damage will be done
to the earth.

But the battle is not over yet: every year we are inventing new technologiesto tackle and reduce CO2.
Much like losing weight, reducing CO2 is a gradual, step-by-step process, which must be implemented
on simultaneously many different fronts.

On the global scale, change will come from converting our energy sources, shifting our practices, and many other things.
On a local level, we can begin implementing the 3 R’s of Eco Friendly Packaging:

Your choice of packaging affects the world, so choosing a manufacturer with environmentally responsible practices is important.
Green packaging means products that were designed with environmental sustainability in mind:
Reduce – Reduce waste both for the final consumer and
during the manufacturing process.
Recycle - Recycled materials are used in production, but
also so that the final product can be easily recycled.
Renew – Responsible manufacturers prioritize the use
of materials from renewable resources, such as corn and
potato starches and sugar cane bagasse.
