THE MOMENT IT ALL CHANGED…

I was at a friends house for tea and her parents told her she could not leave the house until she had washed all of the dishes. Eager to leave I helped her with the washing up.

 
Then I saw it. In the midst of soapy bubbles there stood an Ecover washing liquid bottle on the kitchen counter. A trial bottle, much smaller than today’s average sized smart phone.
 
I continued to use the already opened washing up liquid bottle but, the Ecover bottle intrigued me.
 
At the time I was 13 years old and living as an average family. I had never seen or encountered anything considered environmentally friendly.
 
I thought hippy products were bog wash and a waste of time. But, something made me think more about that washing up liquid.peace sign made from grass

Why is there an Eco friendly option? Does that mean every other brand is harmful to the environment?

 

HOW I ENDED UP LIVING ECO-FRIENDLY

The small selection of people I grew up with were not interested in eco friendly products.
Not one person was interested in my ideas or experiments.
Undoubtedly I had to discover nature and environmental protection solo.
 
I hated knowing that my direct impact within the world could cause negative effects on the environment.

After years of experiencing the environmental destruction we are committing daily,

I came to the realisation that environmental friendly wasn’t just a buzz word.
It’s a lifestyle and a choice.
 
And that was it!
From then on I make sure every decision, purchase and journey is as eco-friendly as possible.
