Earth Day: How to start living sustainably

Simple steps we can take for a better planet.

Earth Day is an ideal time for change. It is necessary to start with small steps in order to reach the goal and reduce your negative footprint on the environment.

The bathroom is one of the easiest places to start, as it's usually easy to switch to new products like toothpaste, shampoo and cleansing pads, meaning changes can be seen very quickly. The most important thing to keep in mind when we want to be more sustainable is to first use what we have. A gradual transition will make it easier for you to enter your new everyday life.

Products that help us maintain a sustainable lifestyle

Pots for brushes and dispensers of soap made from recycled glass or plastic are a great place to start. Especially if we replace the existing brushes with with wooden bamboo brushes.

Washing pads are a sustainable alternative to disposable pads, which can be used to reduce the accumulation of unnecessary waste. At first, they seem like a slightly more expensive investment, as the price is slightly higher than the disposable ones. If we take into account their repeated use over a long period of time, in addition to creating less garbage, they also save money.

If we need more storage space, we can easily hang it on the walls hanging wicker baskets from wood with FSC certification (FSC® N001715). They can be used to store cosmetics or towels, such as cotton towels dyed with yarn, made from 30 % recycled cotton, and store the toilet paper in seaweed toilet paper baskets.

Whether you live in an apartment, house or have a separate guest bathroom, JYSK has more sustainable products in its collection to start transforming your home.
