Popsugar Living Green Living Best Gifts for Conscious Consumers 21 Gifts That Are Not Only Sweet, but Also Give Back to Mother Nature 4 December 2020 by Shelcy Joseph Image Source: Etsy As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too. If you buy a product we have recommended, we may receive affiliate commission, which in turn supports our work. If the pandemic has taught us anything, it's the urgency to live in the present while thinking about our collective future. There aren't as many cars on the road or planes in the air these days, and I imagine it feels like a present to Mother Nature. As you complete your holiday shopping this year, consider how you can continue to lessen your impact on the environment. To get you started, I've curated 21 earth-friendly gifts that will add practicality to your loved ones' lives and encourage more sustainable practices.
