It's Earth Day, the day you're actually supposed to remember to carry your reusable tote into the grocery store and maybe even plant a tree if you can find the time to spare or an acorn to grow. I'm here to challenge you to not only do these things on other days throughout the year but also push you to think beyond these stereotypical tropes. 

Earth Day is something that people often don't take seriously, but watch one Greta Thunberg video, and you'll see how critical it is to put sustainability above all. 

With that in mind, we invite you to take a look through a select few articles from the Dieline vault that will push you to think more sustainably, whether it’s about EPRs, plastic-free materials, or the very invention of throwaway living.
