Waterstons’ Post

Living by the sea has been truly inspirational for me. Spending hours on the water rowing, sailing, and walking along the coastline has been a source of joy and motivation. Recently, starting the October Dip a day challenge has shed light on the state of our waters. It's clear that action is needed from all of us now more than ever. We all have the power to make a difference. Whether it's through donations, picking up and clearing away garbage, or being mindful of what we put down our drains, each small action contributes to a cleaner environment. This is a call to action - let's all do something to protect our waters. Together, we can create a positive impact. #EnvironmentalAction #ProtectOurWaters

According to #Goodwill, there are 7 great reasons to donate clothing and other items: 🥇”When You #DonateClothing, You’re Reducing #Consumerism and Waste: Americans throw away more than 68 pounds of #clothing and #textiles, per person, each year. That’s a lot of waste! When you donate clothing instead, you’re reducing your #carbonfootprint and doing your part to make the world a healthier place. You might not think you’re making a huge difference, but if everyone donates clothes worthy of a second home, it could substantially reduce the amount of waste that ends up in our landfills.” ReignBow ReNEWed starts its GIVE 2 DRIVE donation campaign on August 25. We look forward to your #donations! GOT QUESTIONS? https://bit.ly/Give2Drive OR (833) 727-3639.

Can you help us Seed the Change this April? For the first year ever, we are taking part in the Big Give, Green Match Fund. The campaign is live for one week only, between 18th-25th April 2024, and at midday next Thursday we will launch our Seed the Change campaign. Our target is £20,000 and we only have ONE WEEK to do it! Can you help us spread the word? £2,500 will help us install an advanced mooring system, helping to protect valuable seagrass meadows from damage. £1,000 helps us install a marker buoy to help water users identify sensitive habitats and steer clear. £1,600 helps us take carbon core samples to understand the effectiveness of sequestered carbon. £400 helps us take eDNA samples to understand the incredible biodiversity of our meadows. £300 helps us engage a community, sharing our love of seagrass and helping more water users understand why it needs our respect and protection. £5 covers the price of a natural fibre mat that we use to place our seagrass seedlings onto the seabed.

It's #zerowasteweek. 💚 💛 🌻 The message is loud and clear – we must use our planet's resources better. Sharing unused items with others is quick, easy, and far better than binning or recycling them. With 166,000 charities in the UK, your business can make a real difference by donating forgotten items gathering dust. It's an easy way to start your zero waste journey. There are two ways to get involved this Zero Waste Week via A Good Thing: 🌍 Have a look around the office, see what you have gathering dust in the cupboards, hidden on a shelf, or tucked in a drawer and list it on A Good Thing. 🌍 Check out our list of #charityneeds: https://bit.ly/AGT-Need. Are you holding on to something that a local charity could use? #sendlesstolandfill #supportlocal #reducewaste #getstarted

🎉 Conference season is in full swing, and if you're like me, you might end up with a collection of lanyards piling up at the bottom of your laptop bag! Beyond the clutter, there's a bigger issue—sustainability. These lanyards are tricky to recycle and often end up in landfill. 🚮 Luckily, I've found some creative ways to repurpose them! Check out this link for some fantastic ideas: https://lnkd.in/e3UjV-cM Here are a few more suggestions: 📚 Use them as bookmarks ✈️ Identify your luggage with them 🎗️ Donate to charities - some use them for employee IDs, and others repurpose them into practice laces for children with motor difficulties (definitely the best cause, see video below) Let's make a difference and reduce waste together! 🌍✨ #Sustainability #EcoFriendly #ReduceWaste #CreativeReuse

Let's kick off a sustainability train! 🚂 Share the brands you support for their commitment to sustainability. Let's show them some love together! Here's mine: 🥖 BreadTalk - They donate unsold (but not unwanted) bread to local charities instead of giving end-of-day discounts or throwing it away. Less food waste, and they help those in need at the same time. 💚 #sustainabilitytrain #helpingoneanother #impactfocused
