Summer is the season for adventure, fun and spending more time outdoors. But it’s also a time when our spending often increases – more trips, more takeaways and a few more impulse purchases.
Clean works with many things and what we do is often hard to explain, with this guide we have tried to illustrate what just 10 of our members’ solutions can accomplish in the effort for a greener summer. This guide will inspire you to enjoy the summer with a better conscience while supporting some of Denmark’s most innovative and sustainable SMEs – all members of Clean.
1. Earth Miles – get points for green choices
You know it from airlines: points every time you fly. Earth Miles challenges this mindset and rewards you for choosing the bike, bus, or car-sharing instead. You collect points and can redeem them for products from eco-friendly brands. An app with good karma.
