About

Due to the rise of fast, easily disposable fashion, Australians now dispose of 6,000 kilograms of fashion and textile waste every 10 minutes. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Shifting our mindset from viewing a garment as an investment rather than something we can easily throw away, is proving to be hard: but we're working on it! Do you treat your clothes like you treat your microwave or your washing machine? Would you get them fixed if they broke, or mindlessly replace?

Would you really notice if half of them were gone?
What do you do amongst your every day when it comes to mending or purchasing clothes? Any tips or tricks? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

9/10 makes us shiver. That's 9/10 people who work for 12+ hours a day, without even coming home to a full meal. That's 9/10 people who give their all to their work, but still feel ashamed when their kids have to skip dinner. 9/10 people is too many. Whatever your situation, your culture, your background, your home country... no one should have to work like this. It's just not right.

9/10 people skip their meals to make the rest of the world clothes because we want it NOW, we want it CHEAP, and we'll throw it out next week. If this statistic doesn't make you stop and ask 'who made my clothes?', we don't know what will.

How you spend your money shapes your future. A purchase shouldn’t be a mere waltz to the mall absent-mindedly; it’s a place where you use your voting power for the better.

With this in mind, we've come up with 5 simple steps to a GOOD purchase: Refuse. Repair. Reuse. Shop ethically. Respect your purchases.

It takes just 5 steps. So, why the heck not? Head to the link in bio for the full read on how to purchase for GOOD.

Prep your reusables, hunt down your local bulk bin store, ditch the takeaway coffee cups, because Plastic free July is very nearly here! During the month of July, thousands of individuals and teams come together to focus on reducing their plastic waste in all sorts of different ways. With predictions like 'there'll be more plastic in the ocean than fish by 2050', PFJ is even more crucial to partake in. You don't have to go full blown plastic free, it's up to you how you tackle it!

During July and all year round, you'll find us dining out with our @kappi.life cutlery to avoid using single use cutlery that can take over 500 years to decompose, and leaks harmful substances into the earth while breaking down (well, it kinda breaks up into tiny plastic particles which are terrible for our earth). In America, more than 100 million pieces of plastic utensils are used every day! Urgh. Plastic Free July aims to tackle these statistics not only for one month, but forever.

If you're ready to dive into a month of waste reduction, whether it be avoiding single use plastic, or going fully plastic free, make sure to sign up for @plasticfreejuly.
Tell us, what is your plastic free goal this month?
