Since celebrities do have an outsized influence on our world, it would be great if they used that power to really help the planet. And they could do that by making the switch to sustainable packaging. The goodwill generated by this move alone would help their sales too. And that’s the next point.
Most of these people are already wealthy and hawking products in plastic, while speaking about how we need to help the environment, is really disingenuous.
But as they say, it’s all about the Benjamins. Keep that in mind when you go to reach for a celebrity endorsed or made product, it’s not about solving a problem but about creating more wealth for that individual. And that’s fine, but it’s your money, so spend it wisely and in-line with your values.
If they would just spend a bit more time and money and move to fully recyclable, environmentally-friendly packaging, they would have our money and respect. These packaging companies exist today and the eco-friendly packaging is available. See below.
Keep shopping for things you need that are truly environmentally friendly. The celebs will be just fine.
If the cannabis industry can sell child-proof, plastic-free containers for gummy edibles, then both our corporate and celebrity friends can do the same.
