The Benefits to the Environment When Substituting
Laundered Items for Disposable
2
Why Its Important

• We only have one earth and as a society weve
  been making lots of decisions that have not been
  helpful.
• When you began to think about using laundered
  items, you are taking a step towards healing the
  biosphere.

3
Reusable

• The first and most obvious advantage to moving to
  laundered items is the reusability factor.
• By making a switch to laundered items, you are
  moving from a throw-away culture, to that of
  mindful sustainability.

4
Saves Resources

• Another obvious advantage is found in the sheer
  number of resources that are saved.
• Every time a new product is created, some of the
  earths resources are used. This is a one way
  path to depletion.

5
Avoids Landfills

• The truth is that our discarded materials just
  end up in a landfill somewhere. Not only is this
  unhealthy for anyone nearby, it makes our planet
  gross.
• Choosing products that can be laundered avoids
  this.

6
Protects Wildlife

• Most people have seen pictures of fish trapped in
  soda can loops or bears eating human garbage.
• By moving to sustainable products, you are
  ensuring that your waste doesnt end up around a
  fishs neck.

7
Inspires Others

• When you make the decision to wear a work uniform
  that is designed for sustainability, you are
  making a statement.
• As we all know, changes for the good start with
  one person making a choice and others following
  suit.

8
Saves Money

• You may not think that saving money benefits
  the environment, but it does!
• When you choose to purchase work apparel that
  need not be replaced regularly, you have more
  money to invest in other green products.

9
Its Responsible

• Making good choices for others as well as
  ourselves is part of being a responsible adult.
• These are also the qualities that we need to be
  sure to pass to the next generation.

10

• It is time to make the right decision for you and
  future generations.
• Sustainability, reusability, and being resource
  minded. With these three ideas, you can change
  the world.
