Shop Your Mind
And speak it too. Notice how more and more products are available in organic? Or how about how more grocery stores have larger natural foods sections? It's not a coincidence...it's all you baby. You, me, everyone. We tell producers what consumers want by everyday choices. So now it's swell to see more and more natural, organic, free-range, choices, but what about the packaging? So first we take our health to heart, now how about Mother's...you know, miss au natural herself. What do you do when the product you want comes in non-eco friendly wrap? You speak your voice. All products have a contact or questions line, email, or address. With email today it's really very simple and only takes a moment for a quick inquiry or suggestion. Today I emailed two organic companies whose product I consume but am unable to readily recycle the containers (I also suggested they try out biodegradable plastic, not just recyclable...biodegradable plastic really needs a push from consumers now - especially plastic bags). This has bothered me for a long time now and so I finally did it and you know, it was quick and easy. So now I just wait for a response. I think I will try to do this with more products. If these companies hear about packaging issues from more and more people, it will put the pressure on. They need to know what we want. So tell them.
