Why this course is important to Source?
Source Founder, Sheila is an ex-stewardess, mother of two boys, grandmother and founder of two successful businesses. Sheila worked as a stewardess for a number of years and has always had a deep love for the ocean and is an environmentalist at heart. Whilst working on yachts, she noticed the large amounts of wastewater, full of chemicals, being disposed of in the ocean without a thought for the damage being caused.
Today, although there are more eco-friendly products available, there’s now the issue of competitive companies all fighting to win our attention. Big brands are cramming products that look eco-friendly, full of marketing jargon and false claims, making it increasingly difficult to choose a product that’s truly eco."This is a great guide to understanding the different levels of 'eco-friendliness' that are out there. I always looked at ingredients, but never thought about how the products are made!
