Sustainable Gifting Starts Now: Your Eco-Friendly Guide to the Holidays
Share
Between Thanksgiving dinners, travel plans, and endless shopping lists, it’s easy to get swept up in the holiday rush. But this year, what if your gifts could show love—to your people and to the planet?
The holidays generate up to 25% more waste in U.S. households each year, from plastic packaging to unwanted gifts. At Earthinary, we believe gifting season should be full of joy—not landfill. Here’s how to make this your most meaningful and sustainable holiday yet.
The Problem With Traditional Gifting
Every year, millions of gifts end up unused or tossed within months. Plastic-wrapped gadgets, disposable decorations, and single-use items tend to last a season, not a lifetime.
The good news is that small shifts in what and how you buy can have a big impact. The average American spends over $900 on gifts during the holidays—imagine if even 10% of that went toward planet-friendly products. That’s the power of conscious gifting.
How to Choose Sustainable Gifts
Sustainable gifting isn’t about cutting joy from your list—it’s about choosing better. When selecting gifts this year, keep the Rule of Three in mind:
- Useful: Something that will be used again and again.
- Ethical: Fair trade, eco-certified, or made from renewable materials.
- Long-lasting: Quality that outlives trends.
At Earthinary, every item is chosen with these values in mind. From zero-waste home essentials to natural self-care products, we make it easy to give with heart and purpose.
