what are sustainable raw materials?
A sustainable raw material is a material that is once used can be replenished, quickly, without mitigating environmental and ecological impacts. A sustainable, a perfect example of a sustainable product is a bamboo. As fast as you can cut it down and reprocess it and make it into yet a product, you have another blade of bamboo. It's fabulous. Hemp is the same process. What's not a sustainable product? Oil. You have a finite, it's not infinite, it's finite. That's not sustainable. It has to be able to be self-generating. At the same time, there needs to be stewardship. You need to not only cut down the bamboo, but you have to make sure that when the new bamboo is being developed that it has the right nutrients and balance and so you also have to be a participant. So, sustainable raw materials is part like, example bamboo, but is also a subcontext as you have to have stewardship of that sustainability because, if left unchecked, you cut down the bamboo, the next bamboo blade might come out and might not be as strong and in depredated. So, you have to have stewardship with sustainable raw materials.
