Eco Tip of the month: Sustainable Christmas shopping

This Christmas, consider buying gifts secondhand. It is an easy way to reduce waste, avoid overconsumption, and still find high quality items. Lausanne has some great spots where you can find clothes, books, toys, and home decor, all while reducing waste and supporting a circular economy

 

Check out these local options:

  • Le Galetas (Blécherette)
  • Brocki - Salvation Army Lausanne
  • Ateapic Lausanne Flon
  • Ateapic Vevey
  • Galetas Montreux
  • Boutique Creature, Monthey

You can also pass on items you no longer use through Ricardo, Anibis, Facebook marketplace, and Vinted.

 

A small change in how we shop can reduce our environmental impact over the holidays 🎄
