It's World Environment Day!
A time to stand back and truly assess how our everyday actions impact our environment and how best we can act to protect planet Earth, our home.
This year’s theme is Air Pollution. With 9 out of 10 people worldwide breathing polluted air, it begs the question how we can reduce this no matter how big or small the scale. We can all be kinder to the planet:
- Switch to reusable coffee cups on your way to work so we can normalise the use of permanent coffee cups, rather than simply recycling disposable ones
- Swap plastic straws for metal straws and reduce the 425 million straws that make their way into landfill every day
- Bring your own bag for your supermarket shop to stop 2 million plastic bags being used every minute
At Delphis, we pride ourselves on minimising the environmental impact of our products at every level of production, packaging and supply chain. We have a carbon saving of 70% thanks to our Post-Consumer Recycled plastic bottles, an industry first.
In fact, it is estimated that if all milk bottles used in the UK were recycled, we would save an estimated 2.7 million tons of CO2. Think how much cleaner our air would be. Consider the power you have with every purchase. Let’s be the change our planet needs.
