Now more than ever, sustainable travel is one of the best things you can do for our world. Whether that’s bringing a reusable water bottle on your trip, leaving no trace while hiking, or packing your own bamboo utensils, anything counts.
Every year, we as average individuals produce about 1500 pounds of waste. Of this, 500 million plastic straws are included. Imagine if you could change to being more sustainable, and travel more sustainably, with just a simple switch!
Jungle Culture
Luckily, Jungle Culture is a sustainable company that harvests and produces locally sourced bamboo products from Vietnam. There are no imports (which, for those that don’t know, means it is more sustainable). And, every product supports local farmers and artisans in Vietnam. Basically, Jungle Culture has taken the hard part of looking for sustainable products away from you and placed a completely ethical and sustainable supply chain in your lap. Why pass that up!?
As a full-time teacher and part-time traveler, Jungle Culture has given me the opportunity to consciously make a change. And for those of you who have been following me, you know I’ve been looking for more sustainability in my life!
Instead of using the plastic utensils in the PLASTIC wraps every day at work, I’ve switched to using my bamboo cutlery. I also know that when travel becomes a thing again, you bet I’ll be bringing my cutlery set everywhere I go. Planes, hotels, hikes, road trips – you name it and my cutlery will be there. The coolest part about this sustainable product is knowing exactly where it comes from: the rural province of Thanh Hoa.
Oh, but my friends, IT DOESN’T STOP THERE! The sustainable products keep on comin’. Jungle Culture has locally sourced bamboo straws as well. Along with creating a better world, they have now created straws that can have your brand carved right onto them. Now that is a sustainable AND cool straw.
Traveling sustainably isn’t the easiest thing to do. However, with making an easy switch to sustainable bamboo products by Jungle Culture, you’re one step closer to living more sustainably.
