This week's good news will be about plastic bags. And you may be thinking what could be good about plastic bags? But it is not about the plastic bags, it's about the plastic bags that do not exist. Because since 2015, when the 5 pence tax on plastic bags the amount of plastic bags bought in England has been reduced by 90%. Which is great news! The average person buys about 10 plastic bags in contrast to the 140 from 4 years ago. 

Bad News

The bad news for this week will be about animals. I do not post that much about animals mostly about the climate and plants but I thought this was worth mentioning. In the USA and Canada, 1 in 4 birds have been lost, which means the number of birds has gone done by 25%. But how many birds are that really? you may be asking your self, well the estimated amount is 3 billion BILLION. And we can not let this number get any bigger or who knows what the consequences will be? 

Company 

Premium 6 Inch Boot voor Heren in geel-This week the company will be Timberland. Timberland is a shoe company known for it's iconic 'Yellow boot'. But when buying shoes you never really pay attention to the behind the scenes and you never know what you will find out. In this case all the good things! For example, Timberland has planted 50 million trees in 5 years. And their goal for the end of 2019 is too have 100 eco-friendly cotton. So next time buying shoes consider the greener choices like these pretty and eco-friendly boots. https://www.timberland.nl/ This is the link to their webshop.
