World Environment Day 2025

Every year on June 5, we take a pause — just for a moment — to think about the Earth we live on. We talk about cleaner air, bluer oceans, and greener habits. And this year, for World Environment Day 2025, the message is loud and clear: it’s time to put an end to plastic pollution.

It’s not about being perfect. It’s about being better than yesterday. That’s a mindset we truly believe in here at Sarayu.

Plastic Is Everywhere : And That’s the Problem

Walk down the street, visit a beach, or even take a look around your home. Plastic is everywhere. From tiny wrappers to shampoo bottles, it’s hard to escape it. But the sad part? A lot of it ends up in landfills or our oceans — and it stays there for hundreds of years.

We’re not here to throw facts at you. You’ve heard them before. So where do we go from here?

Change Starts at Home

No one’s asking you to live off the grid or stop using everything made of plastic overnight. But maybe we can swap that plastic bottle for a reusable one. Or carry a tote bag instead of grabbing another plastic one at the shop. Small choices, repeated every day, become habits. Habits change.

And when do brands start making better choices too? That’s when the real shift happens.

Sarayu’s Way of Doing Things Differently

At Sarayu, we're not trying to follow the crowd. We’re trying to walk a quieter path — one that respects nature without compromising on quality of care.

Here’s how we’re doing our bit:

Less Plastic, More Thought

We’ve been steadily swapping out plastic for greener options in our packaging. Whenever possible, we use glass, kraft paper, or recyclable materials. And we keep it simple — no fancy layers or shiny covers that end up in the bin five seconds after opening.

Gentle Products, Gentle on the Earth

Everything we create is inspired by nature’s own way. Think plant-based ingredients, gentle formulations, and nothing that harms the soil or the sea once it goes down the drain. No harsh chemicals, no parabens, no fuss.

If you've used our handmade soaps or skin mists, you’ll know what we mean — soft on you, soft on everything around you.

Reuse Over Replace

We’re slowly adding refillable and reusable options to our collection. Imagine this — instead of tossing your empty bottle, you refill it. Same bottle, same goodness, less waste.

Many of our customers tell us they reuse our glass containers as mini plant holders or storage jars. And honestly, we love that.

Small Batches, Low Waste

We make things in small batches. Why? So nothing sits unused on shelves, and we don’t end up wasting precious resources. We don’t just make products; we put thought and care into every step.

You don’t have to be a perfect to make a difference

It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by words like “climate change” or “pollution crisis.” But you don’t need a degree in environmental science to make a difference.

Here are some simple ways you can help every day: 

• Choose brands (like Sarayu!) that care about the Earth.

• Say no to single-use plastic when you can.

• Reuse, repair, refill.

• Share what you learn. Conversations spark awareness.

This June 5, Make It Count

World Environment Day isn’t just another day on the calendar. It’s a chance to start fresh. To think twice before tossing something away. To support businesses doing the right thing. And to be kind — not just to people, but to the planet we all share.

At Sarayu, we’re not perfect. But we’re trying. And we believe that effort matters.

Just by reading this, you have taken the first step. Just by caring, you’re ahead of the curve. And if you want to take the next step, browse through our range of gentle, eco-conscious products. Each one is made with love, intention, and a little hope for a cleaner tomorrow

Let’s be the reason future generations can enjoy clean rivers, green parks, and plastic-free beaches. It starts with us.

From all of us at Sarayu, Happy World Environment Day
