Eco Gift Guide - Gifts that Keep on Giving
The main thought behind creating this guide is HOW TO GIVE MORE CONSCIOUSLY AND RESPONSIBLY.
With the world facing many challenges in terms of people migration due to war, famine, global pollution, waste fields, degradation of ecosystems... you name it, there's always something we can do right now to help.
HOW?
We can use our wealth, as, if you can afford to buy gifts for your loved ones, you have wealth and power to maximise on giving by buying items that will make a positive impact on someone who you don't know at all, but, perhaps, has suffered abuse. You can hugely diminish the waste field size or rescue vital ecosystems form turning into deserts.
