If possible, buy products that use natural, non-toxic and biodegradable ingredients to minimise their environmental impact. Look out for accreditation marks such as the <a href="https://fsc.org/en/?oldgw=target="_blank">Forest Stewardship Council</a> (FSC) or the <a href="https://global-standard.org//?oldgw=target="_blank">Global Organic Textile Standard</a> to ensure that items are produced with people and planet in mind.
