REFILL GROCERIES

CLICK HERE TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT HOW REFILL SHOPPING WORKS

We want to reduce Packaging Not Included’s environmental impact as much as possible, so as well as our work to reduce and reuse packaging we need to look at other areas where we might be able to improve, such as energy consumption. In order to reduce, the first step is to measure! Emissions fall into 3 categories Scope 1, 2 & 3. Scope 3 are the hardest to measure as they include the whole supply chain.

We measured all of our Scope 1 & 2 and limited Scope 3 emissions for 2021 and have offset the 3 tonnes of CO2 that we produced with gold standard offsets - a biodigester project in Cambodia. This allows us to use the Climate Neutral Now badge.

We are now working to reduce our Scope 1 & 2 emissions and making a plan for how we can start to measure our Scope 3 emissions.

Learn how to use natural ingredients and Therapeutic Grade essential oils to make your own body care products that only smell amazing, but can help you to relax, reduce stress and improve your quality of sleep.

Clothes Swap

Café Movida, Hughenden Yard, Marlborough

Swap don't Shop! Come, have a drink, update your wardrobe and chat zero waste fashion!

Why not buy new clothes?

Did you know that the textile and fashion production:

- Consumes lake-sized volumes of fresh water

- Contributes more to climate change than aviation and shipping combined

- Exploits countries with little trade union representation and weak environmental protection

- Exploits child labour, forced labour, prison labour and bonded labour

(Information from UK Parliament's inquiry Sustainability of the Fashion Industry)

How does the clothes swap work?

• Bring along 6 - 12 items, including shoes, bags, accessories

• Receive tokens, spend your tokens on clothes and accessories that you love
