As we go about our everyday homely tasks, we’ve put together a list of 10 of our fave items to lessen our environmental impact to build a better tomorrow.

Stay well-hydrated with  Okanagan Lifestyle‘s slick 42 oz wide-mouth Big White water bottle. Each MiiR products comes with its own ‘Give Code,’ so you can see which community-based project your conscious purchasing dollars have helped fund. Drink better. Do better.

The DISH BLOCK® concentrated dishwashing soap from No Tox Life cuts through the grease and grime on dishes, pots and pans with ease and can even spot clean your carpet. Plus, there aren’t any dyes or scents in this heavy-duty but gentle-on-your-hands cleaning product.

Whether there’s a baguettes or a half-sliced onion hanging about, Abeego’s all-natural plastic-free alternatives come in different shapes and sizes. Unlike single-use wraps, Canada’s first B Corp™ Certified beeswax wrap are breathable, so food is kept alive for longer (which also helps combat food waste).

With ECOlunchbox—a woman-owned business in California, USA—the idea with the Tri Bento box is to save space as you snack away. Made from non-toxic stainless steel, stack the three-in-one containers then secure with the clip.

Don’t want to scratch the surfaces of your pots? Well, every corner of this organic Bambu, naturally anti-microbial bamboo pot (and pan) scraper is crafted with a different shape to help with with those hard-to-reach spots.

From farmers’ market days and shopping mall visits to when you just need emergency snacks, The Market Bags reusable produce bags are handcrafted in British Columbia, from up-cycled fabrics like organic cotton, mesh and muslin. Pro tip: Buy a second set to stick in your car.

From bowls and cups to Tupperware, instead of reaching for yet another sheet of single-use plastic wrap, buy these Mother Earth silicone bowl covers, then use them over and over again.

German brand WECK has a reputation for crafting top-notch pantry-pretty glass jars for canning or storing herbs and spices, cereals and oats, pasta and everything in between.

YETI’s Rambler® wine tumbler is a 10 oz wine glass without worrying about broken glass (or single-use disposable cups).  It’s engineered for lounging by the pool or rugged outdoor adventures using kitchen-grade stainless steel, keeping your bevy cold even when your hands are the opposite of that.

Compared to those standard yellow cleaning sponge, scrub longer with a bamboo handle, removable-head dish brush with stiff agave fibre animal-free bristles. The small wire loop at its tip also makes drying easy.
