Get Involved!

 

 

 

Get Involved is the campaign of the United Nations Environment Protection program (UNEP)

You can read a collated list of UNEP Reports & Releases here.

James&Co is a participant in that program. We advocate to Get Involved by buying plant based no plastic fashion. Get plastic out of fashion.

Join us in this drive and activities to meet the target of limiting climate warming to 1.5% by 2050.

Read our latest blog about the Turn Off The Tap Report.

And really Get Involved with the purchase of an ANNIE cotton string bag or a LIZZIE cotton string bag - the simplest alternatives to plastic bags.

The bag that the UNEP has identified as the solution, not pollution. Central to its theme to #beatplasticplastic on World Environment Day 2023.

The switch from a plastic bag to a reusable bag is one of the campaigns of Plastic Free July 2023.

Anne Hurley Earth Totes founder and writer

I write about reusable living and everyday sustainability


Through Earth Totes I write about practical sustainability — the small everyday choices that can reduce waste and help retailers offer products that reflect changing consumer values.

Why reusable products matter

Sustainability is often discussed in big global terms, but many changes begin with simple everyday habits.

Reusable bags, organic cotton products, and durable everyday accessories can play an important role in reducing waste while encouraging more responsible consumer behaviour.

Earth Totes focuses on those everyday products.

Three Careers

Law

I began my professional life in law, where writing, research, and clear analysis were essential every day.

Telecommunications

I later moved into telecommunications, working in a fast-changing industry shaped by innovation and the digital economy.

Sustainability

Today I bring those same analytical skills to sustainability — researching materials, questioning industry claims, and writing about the changes needed to build a more responsible fashion industry.

Writing and Practical Sustainability

Much of my writing today focuses on practical sustainability — solutions that retailers and consumers can adopt immediately.

Reusable products are one example of how simple material choices can reduce environmental impact while still offering useful, attractive everyday items.

Why Earth Totes Exists

Earth Totes exists to provide reusable alternatives to disposable products, particularly in everyday shopping and lifestyle accessories.

The brand reflects the belief that sustainability should not be complicated. Often the simplest products can make the biggest difference.
