World Environment Day: 5 Types of Emerging Renewable Gifting Trends

Renewable trends are a well needed calling for today’s world. A by-product of this trend, eco-friendly gift-giving has also become quite the rage, especially with the young ones in society. It means less plastic and more renewable resources at work to make the planet a better place to live in. This World Environment Day, make a lifestyle change and adopt the renewable way of life. Here are some of the current renewable gifting options that you could take inspiration from:

Eco-Friendly Planters

If the person you’re buying the gift for has recently gotten into plants or is planning to take it up as a hobby, eco-friendly planters made up of ceramic or fibreglass would be an amazing gifting idea. They are not highly toxic like the usual plastic planters and don’t have a negative impact on the environment either. Cork planters are another very viable gifting option. The material is biodegradable and renewable and there is no need for trees to be cut down to make them. There are numerous high-quality eco-friendly planters available to buy online.

Cloth Tote Bags

Yes, tote bags are back in fashion. In fact, they never completely went away. Cotton tote bags are highly nature-friendly. They are reusable, washable, customisable and a great gifting option. Leather and other synthetic material bags use production processes that are not very environmentally sound and plastic bags do not have a good reputation for being both nature-friendly and skin-friendly. Tote bags are available online in multiple designs and sizes so you can choose one according to your gifting needs. They are also very long-lasting so the receiver will be able to cherish your gift for a long time.

Lead-free Plant Pencils

Seed pencils are a type of pencil that you can plant into the soil once their use is over. They come in different colours that you can buy individually or in sets. Gifting these to kids would be a good opportunity to help them explore their creative side while also teaching about being responsible and caring nature lovers. It’ll also be a very educational process for them to see their pencils grow out into plants.

A Zero Waste Cookbook

The first step towards adopting a zero-waste lifestyle could be the implementation of a few changes in the kitchen. If you have a friend or relative who might want to get on with this trend, give them a starter’s help book guide. It could even be a gift to yourself as well. There are various zero waste cookbooks available in the market by professionals who have adopted this lifestyle and seen positive changes.

Recyclable Wrapping Paper Set

This one will make you feel good about the act of gifting because you’ll need one set yourself. For years, wrapping paper has been made using sheets of plastic and other non-recyclable materials. Today there are options for you to choose from wrapping paper made out of recycled products and wrapping paper that can be recycled. Both these options are good for the environment and a well-needed change in the gifting industry.
