I was horrified when I discovered the size of our plastic waste problem and how it was affecting us, down to the food and water that we consume every day. Even worse, I knew that I was certainly playing my part in adding to the problem. When I tried to live zero waste, I found it nearly impossible to find even basic items, like cleaning products, that didn’t come wrapped in plastic. I knew I had to do something.
I founded Unpackaged Eco because I knew there had to be a better way to treat ourselves, and the planet we all love so much. As a new mum, I have become even more conscious of the growing damage we are leaving behind for the next generation – unless we change it right now. And we can.
I hope you will join me in this fight for a cleaner planet, and to be a part of this exciting change for good.
If you have ideas for a cleaner planet, please drop me a line on irene.chen@unpackaged.eco, I’d love to hear from you.
Irene, CEO & Founder of Unpackaged Eco
