Good for the Environment, Good for People

We encourage all our friends with dogs to check their label. The reliance of consumers on disposable, low quality made in China & offshore goods has made a huge environmental impact on us all! It's true that pollution directly impacts the Chinese people and their cities that appear wrapped in a toxic gray cloud, however their reliance in factories on using coal is having a huge environmental impact on our entire world.

"The amazing increase in Chinese manufacturing over the past 15 years has driven the world economy to new heights and supplied consumers in developed countries with tremendous quantities of lower-cost goods," said co-author Steven J. Davis, an assistant professor of Earth system science at the University of California, Irvine. "But all of this has come at substantial cost to the environment." 2015

The power to choose NA-made is in our hands. It's good for us today and for the future generations who will inherit our environmental legacy. Choose socially responsible, sweatshop free goods whenever possible. Less shipping from offshore equates to far less greenhouse gas emissions onshore.
