Recycled Products and Packaging on Vegan Cuts

If you’re walking around on this planet with your eyes and ears at least partially open, you know the mantra. Reduce – Reuse – Recycle. For many of us, recycling in our homes is just part of the routine. Perhaps you consciously buy products with less packaging (reduce), find ways to give a second life to something no longer needed (reuse), or look for facilities to transform your waste into new goods (recycle). All of these actions are important to the overall goal: reducing our impact on the environment.

Luckily, consumers are not the only ones charged with this responsibility. Since so many people are learning to become earth-friendly consumers in this day and age, manufacturers are also taking note. In specialty shops and local grocery stores, there’s a strong push toward products with less (or even no) packaging, and more recycled/recyclable content.

Still, some people wonder why recycling is important. To that, I ask, “Why not?” We’re all aware that our planet has a finite amount of resources. Regardless of where you sit on the debate about fossil fuels, water consumption, global warming, or other resources, it’s clear that we (collectively as human beings) are using resources faster than the earth can reproduce them. Some see this as a ticking time bomb, and others view it as a fantastic motivator for innovations in energy, food production, packaging, and even recycling methods themselves.

Here at Vegancuts, we’re just as concerned about our impact on the earth as we are about the animals. That’s why, in addition to scouting out the latest and greatest vegan products on the planet, we also strive to support companies who are doing their part for the environment. Many of our vendors’ products feature recycled packaging, and several others are actually using recycled materials in their finished goods. By shopping in our store, you can feel extra good about where your dollars are going, knowing that the people who make this stuff are thinking about your health and well-being as well as the earth’s animals and resources.
