I write about reusable living and everyday sustainability
Through James&Co and brands I write about practical sustainability — the small everyday choices that can reduce waste and help retailers offer products that reflect changing consumer values.
Why reusable products matter
Sustainability is often discussed in big global terms, but many changes begin with simple everyday habits.
Everyday accessories and necessities can play an important role in reducing waste while encouraging more responsible consumer behaviour.
James&Co, Earth Totes and CORKSTORE each focus on those everyday products.
Why CORKSTORE, Earth Totes, James&Co brands exist
The brands Anne founded are not just businesses.
They are a response to the environmental damage caused by leather, plastic-based faux leather and disposable fashion accessories.
Through James&Co, CORKSTORE , and Earth Totes Anne demonstrates that retailers can offer accessories made from materials that are plastic-free, plant-based, renewable, biodegradable.
Each brand explores a different sustainable material.
