With Global Recycling Day around the corner on March 18, 2021, Amazon India is calling for collective action and advocating customers to make a pledge to reuse their boxes. Our #PledgetoReuse campaign invites you to reuse packaging boxes in creative ways. What’s more, you stand to win prizes while doing the valuable task of spreading awareness about reusing.
Over the years, the increased awareness and emphasis on environmentally sustainable practices has made customers more conscious about the brands they use. In turn, this is creating a ripple effect towards responsible purchase and consumption decisions. COVID-19 has also seen customers reassessing their impact on the environment, leading to them moving towards sustainable and recyclable practices.
