Alexandra Grant claims that her new tote bag is made from "a combination of new and used material ensures green production methods and overall quality and durability."
Someone shared this educational info:"A combination of new and used material does NOT ensure green production methods. It depends on what the “new” material and what the “used” materials are, how they are manufactured, what the manufacturing process uses for energy, the supply chain for each of the “new” and “used” materials. Are they sourced in a country that uses child labor and has zero environmental protection laws in their manufacturing sector? For $125, I expect this information to be included prior to making the purchase.
Are the fabrics organically sourced cotton and the farmers are paid a fair price for their cotton? Denim? From where? What percentage is new and what percentage is used? Who inspects the “green production methods” to ensure this is not just a label being used to make the product appear environmentally friendly because a part of it (no idea what percentage) is from a previously used item? Sleazy and completely lacking in any transparency to support the claim that this is “green” and I can feel good about my high dollar purchase."
Just like many claims, there is nothing to back it up. Her diamonds from India are not conflict-free. On the contrary, they are the worst kind of blood diamonds.
And here she is claiming to employ green production methods but does not provide the proof that it is. Empty word as usual.
