Honestly it's nice that you mean well but the waste you or the brand creates making the products does not compare to the waste from all the warehouses that ship it to you waste in plastic every day.
This is the problem with sustainable marketing.. it's not about real sustainability it's about getting your brand over.
If you want true sustainability than grow or build it yourself.
Otherwise get the most quality durable item you can so that you don't have to purchase it again and the waste that's entailed with creating, and more so shipping it to you is non-existent.
A product could say it is super sustainable because it's made out of bamboo.. but if you have to keep buying them because bamboo breaks then there's all that waste from making and shipping you multiple products.
