Deo-lemma
Before I converted to Sustainabilisim (worshippers welcome!) I absentmindedly over consumed, ate meat daily and understood little about the hazardous effects of disposable plastics.

Which Shampoo Bar?
If you have read some of the earlier articles you will probably know we are big fans of shampoo bars here at Seastainability! What's not to love?

What will you do with them when they are no longer fit for … Continue reading Closing the Loop on Denims Lifecycle
The ‘Natural Cosmetics’ aisle
On my mission to reducing my plastic footprint I have been using solid shampoo and conditioner bars for over a year now and have avoided approx. 40 plastic bottles since (I was a heavy user!). I have more recently switched shower gels for quality palm oil free soaps or my own home made body scrubs. … Continue reading The ‘Natural Cosmetics’ aisle
Clean the World
Whilst writing the latest article 72 hours in LA I contacted the Orlando Lifestyle Hotel not only to credit them on a wonderful stay but to also give them feedback on how my stay could have been a little less impactful on the environment. The usual card was left on the bed kindly asking to help reduce the consumption … Continue reading Clean the World
