Shopee, in hopes of educating Filipinos more about going green. Is providing their list of suggested products you can get during their Shop Green campaign which would last until April 25.
Shop Green Tip #1 Eat low on the food chain.
Red meat is one of the biggest contributors to harmful emissions. We know giving up steak forever is hard, but once in a while, try swapping out red meat and processed food for plant-based meat. Even better, consider alternatives such as fish, fruits, and vegetables. Aside from reducing your personal carbon footprint, you can enjoy a healthier diet! It’s also a great way to support our local farmers and fishermen.

Shop Green Tip #2 Use eco-friendly household products.
Since most of us are quarantining at home, our household product consumption has increased. Unfortunately, many of these daily essentials, such as toothbrushes, shampoos, and cleaning materials, are made with toxic chemicals that harm the environment. Luckily, more brands have developed sustainable products that we can use as alternatives.

- Colgate Natural Bamboo Charcoal Toothbrush, ₱133
- EPSA Organic Shampoo, ₱108
- Messy Bessy Natural Dish Cleaner, ₱162
Shop Green Tip #3 Plant your own garden.
Many of us recently unleashed our inner plantitos and plantitas. It’s fun, therapeutic, and one of the best ways we can practice environmental stewardship! Your plant babies can help get rid of toxic air released by furniture and electronics. Growing an urban garden and eating your own vegetables can also help reduce the impact of transporting produce, which takes up a lot of energy. Growing and caring for your plants will benefit your overall physical and mental well-being, all while helping fight climate change.

Shop Green Tip #4 Reduce consumption of single-use plastics.
Disposable utensils, straws, and plastic water bottles are convenient when you’re on the go, but they’re also bad for the environment. These single-use plastics all end up in landfills and waterways. However, the simple act of substituting these items with more sustainable options is already a big step towards positive change. Avoid using them and instead, purchase reusable products that can last you for years to come.

- Klean Kanteen Classic Insulated Tumbler, ₱1,755
- Just Green PH’s Set of 5 Glass Straw, ₱180
- Shoulder Tote Eco Shopping Bag, ₱20
Change starts within us. Remember, even the smallest acts can yield big results in the long run. Together, let’s all do our part in the conservation of our home—Mother Earth.
