Eco living insights
Nestled in the the heart of the Parks, a collection of leafy Johannesburg suburbs, lies the Dunkeld West shopping centre. Its home to the Clean shop Gauteng, a new funky, vibrant, owner run business selling Eco friendly Biodegradable cleaning and care products. The Clean shop has been around since 1996 with representatives around the Country, the Clean Shop Gauteng is the first official Retail outlet in the Gauteng Province.
We brought the brand to Gauteng because we believe theres a desperate need for products of this nature. Eco awareness is no longer the domain of long haired, bare foot, forest dwelling activists but is now a movement that's sweeping the suburbs. As more and more information comes to the fore highlighting the negative impact of certain foods and chemicals on the body so more and more people are switching to eco friendly alternatives. Awareness around sustainability and longevity is on the rise and its no longer a nice to do but rather a need to do.
Some alarming environmental statistics
- Projections are that 99% of the worlds population breathe air that exceeds WHO guideline limits
- A conservative estimate puts annual premature deaths as a result of air pollution at 5 million
- A significant portion of "human-caused" excess heat is stored in the oceans causing ice sheets to shrink.
- Climate change also exacerbates food and water crises, with significant portions of the population lacking safe drinking water and experiencing food insecurity.
- Approximately one million plant and animal species are at risk of extinction due to human activities like habitat destruction and pollution.
- Biodiversity is declining faster now than at any other point in human history.
We can no loner simply ignore the impact our actions are having on the Planet and ultimately on ourselves, its not about us but about future generations. Its also not about sweeping lifestyle shifts simply exercise more, watch what you eat, reduce alcohol intake, recycle and choose products that are less damaging to the environment.
