This shampoo can clean your hair and the ocean at the same time

When it comes to caring for our hair, we usually resort to thousands of products, masks and ampoules that help keep it healthy and strong.

Within this range there are shampoos for curly, broken or straight hair that cleanse it and fill it with life, although there is a product that does more than just take care of your scalp. Did you know that every second more than 200 kilos of garbage end up in the oceans? Among them are the bottles of the beauty products you use, the water bottles and the packaging of some sixpack of beer . The ocean is home to many creatures and all this garbage not only pollutes your home, it also endangers turtles who get stuck in the garbage, while a large percentage of fish die from eating plastic.

 To clean the seas of all this waste, one of the most important companies in the beauty industry, in addition to taking care of its consumers' hair, also wants to join the fight against the environmental crisis. Procter & Gamble (P&G), aware of all the environmental impact that bottles create, recently shared that all the packaging for its shampoo line, Head & Shoulders, will be produced with all the plastics Europe Cell Phone Number List collected from beaches, rivers and oceans. This means that this shampoo can clean your hair and the ocean at the same time. Each packaging will be made with up to 25% of this waste and will be the first bottle in the liquid soap industry to be made from garbage. The TerraCycle company decided to partner with P&G to collaborate with the collection of all this waste and duplicate efforts to clean all these sites and, above all, protect marine animals and their ecosystems.

Szaky commented that many organizations and volunteers collect plastics from beaches, ports and other places that TerraCycle subsequently separates into high-density plastics that will be sent to P&G to make their packaging and the rest is used to create benches and tables that will be taken to organizations. non-profit. The P&G brand is one more that joins in creating products from waste from the seas, another company that joined this cause is Adidas with its tennis shoes made with plastic obtained from the sea. As a consumer, you should also worry about knowing what the items you use are made of and how to dispose of them responsibly, Szaky added. This line is currently available in France but it is planned to replace all Head & Shoulders bottles with this packaging.
