Earth Day is an annual event on April 22nd that recognises the harm that humans are capable of causing to our planet. There are a lot of ways we can help show solidarity for the cause, not only on Earth Day but all year round. Whilst it is near on impossible to do everything to help save the planet, one thing we can all do is to shop sustainably. That’s why we have compiled this list of some of the very best brands that are making a conscious effort to minimise their carbon footprint.
From using only recycled and ethically-sourced materials to working with responsible suppliers, sustainability sits at the forefront of everything Monica Vinader does. In April 2020, Monica Vinader started making all their jewellery using 100% recycled silver. It’s a step they’ve made to make immediate reductions in CO2 and be kinder to our environment. If this wasn’t enough, their jewellery recycling programme accepts all pieces, regardless of brand.
