A new way to shop for you daily essentials

Hi everyone, we have an idea of opening a store where you can refill your dishwashing liquid, hand soap, or shampoo using your own containers.

The reason we want to do this is to reduce single-use plastic packaging waste, which contributes significantly to environmental pollution. Our refill station concept helps reduce packaging waste by allowing you to reuse your containers.

We also want to promote awareness of sustainable habits and offer lower prices for the products since there are no packaging costs. It also allows you to refill only as much as you need or as little as you want.

Weā€™d love to hear everyoneā€™s opinions. Would you be interested in using a refill service like this? What kind of products would you want to refill?

I started a project for everyone who wants to maximize their positive climate impact

A lot of people ask, what they can do individually, in addition to lifestyle changes, to maximize their positive impact on climate and environment. Asking that myself, and researching flaws of available alternatives, led me to start a new project, to allow individuals to take measurable climate action through participation in forest restoration at scale.

Of course it should be treated as a complementary solution to political pressure and necessary systemic changes, and not as excuse to continue current state of affairs. But if we can do something extra in the meantime, why not? After all, we have to not only reduce our emissions, but also recapture already emitted CO2.

We are dedicated to plant new forests with mainly ecological functions and not industrial monocultures, to make an actual land cover change and provide additional ecosystem services. We also include treesā€™ survivability rate in our impact calculations, to not overestimate it. We partner with municipalities and regions, which provide necessary land, and already few of them declared interest in our project.

Our project allows to gradually build towards tangible impact through planting subscriptions. In our case, they are different from other subscription-based services, as you donā€™t lose your impact when decide to cancel it, as already planted trees will keep recapturing CO2 for you. Such model just makes reaching a proper scale of impact more available.

We also provide feedback on your planting contributions and CO2 recapture journey.

Currently we are building an international community of individuals, who would like to take such climate action with us, so Iā€™d like to invite you to join and bring in your friends!

If it sounds good to you, check our website: https://greenwedge.eco

Hope to see you joining, so we can reach a critical mass of positive impact!

Understanding sustainable IT solutions

Let's start the Sustainable solutions IT encircles strategic leadership across enterprise technology. It assists in minimizing negative environmental impacts and maximizing positive outcomes across ESG areas.

Letā€™s explore the three pillars of ESG in the context of sustainable IT

Environment: This area of sustainable IT focuses on green infrastructure, implementing circular technology strategies, and incorporating measures to achieve carbon neutrality. Organizations can transition to renewable energy and implement sustainable technology sourcing to reduce waste.

Social: This component concentrates on addressing technology accessibility as well as the innovation of technology systems that benefit society. Organizations can evaluate the safety impacts of their services and drive diversity within their ecosystem.

Governance: This aspect focuses on data usage, privacy, and responsible technology. Companies should be transparent about their strategies and risk management, as well as work towards upskilling and reskilling their employees with a focus on establishing a sustainable talent pipeline
