Our Story
Our mission is simple: to help change the world and reverse the impact of climate change, one product at a time.
A little bit about us
We founded SustainaBuddies in 2019 with a vision to offer products which make a net positive change to both society and the environment. We promote ethical sourcing practices and fair treatment of workers, while offering sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives to common everyday products.
We believe that every small change can make a big difference, and we’re here to help you make those changes one step at a time.
- What do we do?
We specialize in sustainable drinkware products like wheat-based and sustainably sourced paper straws. We’ll soon be expanding our range to offer eco-friendly alternatives to other household items. We have a particular focus on eliminating those nasty plastics!
- Why do we do it?
The impacts of pollution and deforestation on the environment and wildlife are devastating. Plastic waste, for example, pollutes our oceans and harms marine life, while deforestation destroys habitats and contributes to climate change.
- Why choose us?
SustainaBuddies provides high-quality, sustainable products made with sustainable materials, waste materials, and by-products to minimize waste. Our products follow the “circular product cycle” for reuse and recycling. We prioritize ethical sourcing practices and fair treatment of workers. We don’t greenwash. Shopping with us means choosing a company with strong morals and ethical values.
The future is bleak unless
we change our ways
While the impact of plastic in the ocean and deforestation may not seem like the most exciting topics, they are actually really important to the health of our planet! Let’s take a closer look at what’s going on…
Plastic islands
First up, plastic in the ocean. Did you know that there are estimated to be more plastic particles in the ocean than stars in the Milky Way?
There are now massive islands of plastic waste floating around in the worlds oceans. The largest one, known as the “Great Pacific Garbage Patch” is THREE times the size of France – that’s a lot of plastic!
And it’s not just an eyesore. When marine animals mistake plastic for food or get caught in plastic debris, it can have serious consequences. So, let’s all do our part and reduce our plastic usage, recycle properly, and keep those oceans clean and healthy!
Not just a bunch of trees
Now, onto deforestation. Forests are more than just a bunch of trees.
They’re home to countless plant and animal species, from cuddly koalas to towering redwoods. But when we cut down those trees, we’re not just removing a place for animals to live. We’re also releasing carbon dioxide into the atmosphere and contributing to climate change. Plus, those trees help regulate water flow and prevent soil erosion,
So, deforestation can cause all kinds of environmental problems. Let’s all work together to preserve our forests and promote sustainable land use practices!
It’s time to clean up our act and ensure that our beautiful planet is here for future generations
If we don’t change our ways to address these major environmental challenges, the planet will suffer disastrous impacts.
Climate change is a major threat, caused by human activities like burning fossil fuels and deforestation. Failing to cut greenhouse gas emissions will lead to extreme weather events, sea level rise, and food and water shortages, affecting human health and ecosystems. We also face other challenges like biodiversity loss, pollution, and resource depletion.
So what can you do about it?
