You all know selective sorting and recycling but there are other simple steps you can take to protect our dear planet.
Maybe not a common knowledge, but solid soaps are an ecological alternative to shower gel and shampoo. Indeed, solid soaps produce almost no waste. They are often sold in cardboard or other biodegradable packaging. Moreover, they generally contain much less chemical substances than industrial soaps. In addition, I don't know if you were aware of it but industrial soaps have a lot of water which makes them less preservable, hence the need for a lot of preservatives.
Solid soap seems to be a good alternative because of its packaging but also because of its composition.
First of all, it's economical, your electricity bill will thank you. Indeed, using the washing machine at 30/40 degrees consumes much less electricity than at higher temperature. And yes, choosing 30/40 degree detergents allows you to pollute less. If everyone goes for low temperature detergents, the national CO2 consumption would decrease drastically. But Be careful, although using the washing machine at 30/40 could be favoured but some really dirty clothes and linens need higher temperatures.
Many cleaning products are still tested on animals in atrocious conditions. We encourage you to choose cruelty-free cleaning products. As you know, almost all industrial cleaning products contain substances high in dangerous chemicals . Just breathing them in and using them can be dangerous because many of them contain carcinogenic substances. The harmful substances in household products are released into the wastewater and some of them (which could not be treated) are released into the aquatic environment. Some household products are harmful to the environment but also to our health, so choosing the right household products is essential. Our products are cruelty-free, vegan, eco-responsible.

We rarely think about it, but our computer or laptop chargers and other devices still consume electricity even when we “think” are not using them. Our appliances on standby, still consume electricity.
Batteries are a very hazardous waste. Indeed, when batteries decompose, they release metals that pollute the environment strongly. The metals contained in batteries are rare and it is important for our planet to recycle them. So don't throw them in the garbage, there are still collection points everywhere for this purpose. Batteries are also extremely flammable and present a risk of explosion and fire.
