SWAP OUT YOUR TOILET ROLLS

ROLLIE CO

Instead of using 100 per cent virgin pulp in toilet rolls, Rollie Co offers toilet rolls made of 100 per cent recycled paper from used books, documents, and industrial paper waste from paper product production too. As toilet papers are single-use items that cannot be reused or recycled, using toilet rolls made from recycled paper reduces the need to cut down more trees. Of course, using the bidet will remove paper use entirely, but the choice is yours. Visit www.therollieco.com

Singapore is going big on sustainable development with the Green Plan 2030, where everyone is encouraged to play our part by making a change, however big or small it may be. A study from the OCBC Climate Index, conducted by OCBC Bank and Eco-Business in 2022, found that personal benefits like better health, cost-savings and convenience stand as the main motivators for climate change. Almost half of the total respondents are motivated to live sustainably in order to save money and create an overall cleaner and greener environment. Keen to get involved? Here are 15 sustainable living hacks that you can incorporate into your everyday life.

GIVE AND TAKE FREE THINGS 

GOODHOOD.SG

A ground-up movement revitalising the kampong spirit conveniently through a mobile app, GoodHood is a digital platform that enables Singaporeans to cultivate a giving, helping, and sharing spirit, reducing waste in the process. On the GoodHood platform, you will find listings of things and food items that are free to grab, the shared virtual storeroom features unused but useful items. You can start by listing your power drill to lend to your neighbours, or putting up a borrow request for a trolley that you would like to use for a couple of days. Visit goodhoodsg.com
