5 Sustainable Products of 2018

As the world around us continues to evolve, so must we. Society as a whole must become more eco-conscious and work together to preserve our environment. Environmentalist, entrepreneurs and manufacturers are making it a priority to reduce their hazardous footprint by working together to create greener products.  

Lamps that grow plants in windowless buildings

Nui Design Studio has created a solution for people that work in windowless spaces that want to add some life to their scenery. This product allows one to not only grow a plant in a dark environment, but it also creates quality air for the room.

Just Egg

JUST Egg is a vegan version of chicken eggs that offers similar taste without adding to animal agricultural gas emissions. With Texas being one of the greatest producers of animal agricultural gas emission. Applying focus to the promotion of JUST egg to these regions could have tremendous benefit.

LARQ Bottle

In America alone, billions of water bottles are used every year, with a very low percentage of them being recycled. Many products have been created to eliminate the number of water bottles being used, but the success rate is very low. That is until now!

How it works

The FinalStraw

Around the country,  plastic straws continue to be banned in different locations to save both ocean & land animals. Organizations like Starbucks and American Airlines are leading the charge in banning plastic straws, and it didn’t take long for someone to create a product to solve an important issue. FinalStraw is a metallic metal straw that can be folded into a keychain for convenience. This product comes with its own squeegee to clean the inside so it is always ready to use.

Bird and Lime Bikes

Bird and Limes electric scooters have taken Austin, Texas by storm. They make touring the city eco-friendly, but put people in grave danger. Hundreds of people are hurt weekly on these electric scooters, yet they haven’t been banned. I don’t believe that these products are a bad idea, but there must be a better solution to increase awareness while using them and making drivers more aware of them on the roads. These bikes were being pushed by policymakers as a better alternative for the scooters. Overall, the idea to get from point A to point B in an eco-friendly manner is bright, but there must be a safer solution.
