We are working for people and nature and our mission is to change the paradigm of building and renovation, to shift the industry from synthetic to natural materials.
It's more clear now than ever that we need to make some radical changes. We can't wait for governments to provide us with the solutions, we need to take action!
My opinion is that the solutions to the worlds problems are inside each and every one of us, right beside the problems themselves.
The question is; Are we willing to be the change that we want to see in this world?
I think so, more often than not, but many people simply don't believe that they have the power to make a difference.
I'd like to share some tips i've used to improve my overall state of wellbeing
You see, making a difference starts with something as small as refusing to accept junk, reducing our consumption of junk, reusing our junk and recycling our junk.
Simply put, we need to STOP consuming junk in any way, shape or form.
We humans are the parasites which are causing the destruction to planet earth, and quite frankly, mother nature doesn't care about us because she will regenerate herself once we've obliterated ourselves.
We cannot continue to blame corporations and governments for the state of affairs we're currently in. It's our responsibility to take action!
So what are we going to do? How can one person make a difference?
VOTE WITH YOUR DOLLAR
Stop consuming junk, starting with plastic and palm oil and then progressing onto more challenging things like refusing to watch funny cat videos all day long (by the way, in case you didn't know, consuming data "from the cloud" is extremely polluting).
My point is that we need to be conscious consumers of EVERYTHING which enters into our lives.
On a more positive note, i'd like to share a few things which we've been doing to change our habits and reduce our footprint.
Refusing plastic and unnecessary packaging wherever we can
Supporting local supply chains wherever we can
Turning our phones onto airplane mode when sleeping
Practicing meditation, yoga and regular exercise
Boycotting products containing palm oil
Cutting out sugar and reducing meat consumption
The above changes have had magnificent impacts on our lives. We've lost weight, reduced our monthly expenditure and are feeling healthier overall, physically, mentally, spiritually and socially.
I'd like to ask you a favour, but only if what I've said resonates with you in some way.
Please share our story and posts (in your own way) on your social groups and pages, tell your friends and family about us and what we're doing and ask them to google "hemp eco systems" for them to read about it themselves.This can be your contribution to helping us spread the word and inject positivity into the world.
We need the masses to become aware of the available options. The option of living in a home made of natural materials are available to us today and this should be the norm for our children and grandchildren, it's the least we can do for them.
Thank You
