AMMONITE: Stepping into a Sustainable Future
In this era of innovation and environmental commitment, Ammonite acknowledges the necessity to enhance sustainability efforts wherever possible.
This is why we have chosen to incorporate sustainable products from Bloom in the manufacturing of our footwear.
For every pair of Ammonite shoes made with insoles from Bloom Sustainable Products, we clean 54 liters of water and 56 cubic meters of air, while offsetting 40.8 grams of carbon dioxide.
These figures not only reflect our dedication to sustainability but also illustrate the substantial impact each purchase has on the environment.
Why Algae?
In the presence of excessive human-made pollution, algae absorb contaminants and proliferate uncontrollably. While algae blooms can threaten ecosystems by depleting oxygen levels, releasing toxins, and disrupting aquatic food chains, they are also one of our most significant untapped renewable resources.
Inspiring Positive Environmental Change
Addressing the issue of algae blooms is essential not just for cleaning our water bodies but for its broader environmental implications.
By utilising algae in the production of sustainable materials, Bloom plays a vital role in capturing and sequestering CO2, a critical step in combating climate change. This process not only reduces the carbon footprint but also generates clean water and supports healthy ecosystems.
Brands using Bloom products worldwide amplify this positive impact, signaling a significant shift towards more environmentally responsible practices across various industries. Together, these efforts represent a transformative step forward in sustainable production and ecological preservation.
Why does incorporating Bloom Sustainable Products into my shoes matter so much to me?
Incorporating Bloom Sustainable Products into my shoes is incredibly important to me for several reasons. My educational background in marine biology, along with my experience working and volunteering with various organisations, has shaped my perspective on environmental issues. I’ve seen the impact of pollution on ecosystems, especially our oceans, and I believe that every small action can contribute to addressing climate change.
Bloom’s innovative approach to using algae for sustainable materials offers a meaningful solution to some of today’s environmental challenges. By utilising these products, we can reduce waste, purify our water and air, and support a circular economy.
Moreover, I want to encourage consumers to make more conscious choices. Each pair of Ammonite shoes made with Bloom materials not only provides comfort and style but also contributes to a healthier planet. It’s about making a positive impact—one shoe at a time—and inspiring others to embrace sustainability.
Ultimately, using Bloom Sustainable Products allows me to merge my passion for marine conservation with my vision for a footwear brand that prioritises both style and environmental responsibility.
