If you need some inspiration in going more Green or altering your life to truly make a difference, pay a visit to LifeWithoutPlastic. Started in 2006 by a Canadian couple, Chantal & Jay, the company aims to reduce the use of plastic by offering great non-plastic alternatives. In reading through their website, it becomes obvious they are running their business with health and morality at the core of their efforts.
Labelling themselves as “realistic idealists”, their aim is to work toward decreased reliance on plastic by offering cool (though sometimes pricey) alternatives. The products they sell have satisfied 4 requirements, where each must be: Healthy, High Quality, Earth-Friendly, and Ethically Manufactured. Therefore, you can shop LifeWithoutPlastic guilt-free!
Their stainless steel lunchbox lineup can be found here. Other favorite items I found on their site include Stainless Steel Deep Plates that would be great for camping and their Stainless Steel Airtight Food Storage Containers that can replace common plastic storage containers.
These “Sanctus Mundo” brand storage containers are pretty pricey ($65 for a set of 4 in various sizes), but they are dishwasher and freezer safe and could last you decades if well cared for. For those of you concerned about safe food storage, they offer a lot of information on the safety of stainless steel .
Other items they sell include baby items, tableware, and toys. So, when searching for gifts or housewares consider going plastic-free and help save the environment! Do you know of other good sites offering these types of products? If so, please comment so we can explore them!
