COVID cannot stop love! But now, more than ever, keeping it small, keeping it local, and keeping it sustainable are the very best ways to show your love for each other and our Earth. So, let’s take a walk down the aisle and say, “I do” to sustainability.

Why is sustainable shopping important? The global population is expected to rise to 8.5 billion people by 2030 with the middle class increasing by 3 billion people over the next 20 years. Since 1990 the amount of natural resources extracted per person has risen from 8.1 tonnes to almost 12 tonnes in 2015. That’s a huge increase in demand which will continue to put a strain on the planetary boundaries, if not addressed.
