Whether you call her Nanay, Mama, or Mommy, there’s no doubt that mothers play a big role in the decision-making at home. This Mother’s Day, let’s shift the focus to moms of a particular color – the Green Moms.

Green Moms are the ones who consistently find ways to make sustainable choices to reduce their environmental impact to make a greener future for their children.

Cheryl Justiniano, Marketing Head for Baby Company explained, “Motherhood can become more intentional with the right choice of products.” Baby Company is an affiliate of the SM Group under its retailing arm, SM Retail.

So how can more moms become a “Green Mom”?

“Moms can always look for sustainable and ethical options. They can also look for products that are made from natural and organic materials, free from harmful chemicals and toxins, and made locally or from sustainable sources. Additionally, they can look for companies that are transparent about their production processes and have a commitment to sustainability,” Justiniano added.

Here are more ways how you can be a Green Mom:

1. You practice the use of products that have a minimal environmental impact. A Green Mom’s decision-making process involves looking carefully at the labels to see if the product is sustainably sourced and made of eco-friendly materials.

2. You prefer reusable products. A Green Mom will always choose products made from sustainable raw materials, which do not contain harmful chemicals. When it comes to toiletries for her children, she prefers to use products made of natural ingredients that are gentle on the skin. She is very discerning when it comes to her choice of tools and accessories. She would pick silicone feeding sets and wooden furniture and absolutely avoid plastic and single-use items.

3. You always look for ways to reduce waste by being practical. Green moms prefer multi-purpose and reusable containers, energy-efficient appliances, and multi-functional baby furniture.
