So Far, So Close

Sometimes, a more sustainable future seems distant, but it can be much closer than we imagine. In every gesture, choice and habit we can bring to our daily life.

Small changes can generate real impact, starting from what is within our reach. It is an invitation to a new narrative of care and consciousness, a role that TH knows is fundamental to bring and support.

Here are some ideas for small changes that can make an enormous difference:

01

Choose organic foods whenever possible, reducing pesticides and carbon footprint.

03

Reutilize glass and plastic containers at home, for storage and organization.

04

Sort waste correctly: paper, plastic, metal, glass and organic.

06

Avoid disposable items: plastic bottles, cups, forks and plastic straws.

07

Reutilize fabric bags or baskets for purchases, evitando plastic.

08

Use water consciously, turning off the tap while brushing your teeth or washing utensils.

12

Support brands and projects with environmental and social purpose, making each purchase an act of consciousness.

13

Dry clothes outdoors whenever possible, reducing the use of dryers and energy.

14

Transform scraps of fabrics or old clothes into cleaning cloths.

02

Priorize local and seasonal products, reducing transportation and stimulating the local economy.

05

Choose biodegradable or concentrated cleaning products.

09

Avoid products with excess of plastic packaging; choose refill or concentrated options.

10

Invest in durable and timeless utensils, that last for years of use.

11

Choose sustainable transportation, like biking when possible.

15

Swap paper, aluminum and plastic film packaging for beeswax or reusable silicone.

Starting small is the first step. Choosing organic foods, for example, is not just a decision for taste or quality: adopting organic products at home, we can reduce carbon footprint by up to 30% per meal, as well as supporting agricultural practices that respect the soil, water and biodiversity. Brands like NUDE, which has a sustainable purpose and shows climate transparency, are an invitation to think about the environment.

And we don't need to limit ourselves to food. Reusing packaging, sorting waste consciously and investing in durable products that last for generations, are gestures that resonate much beyond what we imagine. Did you know that a simple habit of correctly recycling glass and aluminum at home can save up to 95% of the energy that would be necessary to produce new materials?

At TH we seek to promote a journey of classifying items that enter our curation, in badges that we create for a more conscious journey:

UPCYCLING

Items made from materials reused and redefined. Here, the new emerges from what already had life ? and finds a second chance to transform with purpose. Reusing materials, and objects that would be discarded, transforming them into something of greater value or utility.

SUSTAINABLE MATERIAL

Products developed with raw materials of lower environmental impact, such as wood from reforestation, natural or recycled fibers, and ceramics with low energy consumption. Material that respects the earth's time - and causes the least possible impact on the environment.

SMALL PRODUCER

A curation of items created in small scale, by independent ateliers and artisans. The choice of maintaining alive and promoting local production, manual and affective ? that crosses generations, preserving traditional skills, and encouraging commercial relations more just.

RESPONSABILITY SOCIAL

Items with direct impact on community transformation, with focus on income generation, capacity building and preservation of traditional knowledge. Here the design is a source of support to new artisans, promoting local entrepreneurship, and economic inclusion.

The power is in us, here and now. In being curious, in testing small changes, in looking at each gesture with attention.

Each gesture, no matter how small it may seem, is an invitation to perceive that the impact is in what we do here and now. Small daily choices add up, inspiring others and reconfiguring collective habits, opening the way to a closer future to what we want for the planet.
