Every dollar we spend could make a change in the world
The main objective of large companies is to sell, to make money at all costs, going above the limits of environmental destruction and above human rights. Hundreds of investigations with evidence and complaints all over the world have shown this.
Very low prices, made in China, made in Bangladesh, stones extracted from Madagascar, the use of non-organic cotton, excessive use of plastic, polyester and many other things make the main problems of the world much worse and make it a cycle of never end, poverty, hunger, lack of water, lack of education, natural deforestation, contamination of the oceans, melting of glaciers, extinction of species and many other things, although we do not believe it, everything is linked and we can fight against all this from one very easy action that is to observe deeply what we buy, where we buy it, what it is made of, etc.
There are thousands of topics that we would love to talk to you about and introduce you to, little by little on our blog we will be uploading information so that you can learn about the dark and deep process of extracting raw materials, making all the things we buy to the largest industries in the world, from fast food to fast fashion, internet resale stores etc. everything has blood and pain on their hands and behind every dollar we contribute to these big companies to continue squeezing every inch of the planet earth, animals and workers.
Say NO to plastic!
Plastics revolutionized medicine with life-saving devices, made space travel possible, lightened cars and jets—saving fuel and pollution—and saved lives with helmets, incubators, and equipment for clean drinking water.
But today, single-use plastics account for more than 40 percent of the plastic produced every year. Many of these products, such as plastic bags and food wrappers, have a lifespan of mere minutes to hours, yet they may persist in the environment for hundreds of years.
Every year, about 8 million tons of plastic waste escapes into the oceans from coastal nations.
Plastics often contain additives making them stronger, more flexible, and durable. But many of these additives can extend the life of products if they become litter, with some estimates ranging to at least 400 years to break down, also when they are in contact with the sun and water they degrade, releasing toxins that acidify the water, impacting the ecosystems that surround them.
Most of the deaths to animals are caused by entanglement or starvation. Seals, whales, turtles, and other animals are strangled by abandoned fishing gear or discarded six-pack rings.
​
With the acidification of the oceans, corals have died, we can see it by their white color, thus preventing 25% of all marine life from having a habitat.
Behind Plastic Free Stores
Hello, it's a pleasure to greet you, my name is Adriana, I was born in Venezuela on a beautiful island called "Margarita Island" and now I live happily in the USA. I think I have a great affinity for nature because I grew up going to the beach every weekend and enjoying long walks in the mountains, also my mom was a veterinarian so I grew up surrounded by cows, chickens, horses, dogs, cats and many other animals.
My passion for an eco-friendly and more sustainable life did not come until a few years ago when I decided to have a more vegan lifestyle so I could help end animal cruelty and little by little while I was researching about this subjetc and the impact that plastic has on the planet it became my passion.
In Venezuela i graduated as a Doctor in Dental Medicine and my dream is to validate my degree here and be able to develop my professional career in this country, but i do not want to put aside my passion for ecology and the sustainability of the planet, that is why i decided to open this online store and being able to give the entire population the opportunity to find in one place the greatest amount of ecological things to make our day to day easier and to be able to have better choices that do not negatively impact the earth.
In this store we not only want to keep you away from plastic, we want to make you aware of thousands of problems that many big brands and companies generate and how marketing can make you believe that you are buying something ecological when it is not true, for example cotton that is not organic, products that are not vegan, cruelty free etc.
Welcome to my store, pass by whenever you want, we will always be uploading new interesting and useful products for your daily life, in advance i want to thank you for your support and understanding, supporting small businesses is a big change in the world, sometimes it can be frustrating but remember that behind this screen there is only one person doing many tasks, we work very hard to make you happy. Thanks so much…
