While Amazon offers everything under the sun nearly, there are some potential issues regarding sustainable and eco-friendly shopping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s been noted that with Amazon there\u2019s an ethical and environmental cost for two-day shipping.

Each year thousands of new qualified products are added. It\u2019s a way to indicate to you, the consumer, that this product is a slightly more (or a lot depending on the product!) eco-friendly option than another product. So try searching for a climate pledge friendly option first (use the filters to select it!) if you\u2019re going to shop on Amazon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1170\" height=\"730\" src=\"https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/20220818_070750-1-1170x730.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-83299\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use Your Voice<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Amazon has continued to make changes over time. Obviously, they can continue to do better and be a more ethical, eco-friendly company. It\u2019s a consumer platform, so they listen to the consumers. Use your voice to buy more eco-friendly products from them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Go beyond that and message them with your thoughts on how and why you want them to improve their sustainability efforts. When you get something shipped with excessive packaging or unrecyclable plastic, then message them a complaint. Things like this get noted and tracked. It may feel like \u201coh, someone else will do that and it\u2019s fine\u201d, but the more feedback the better, and they may be willing to make some changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Don\u2019t You Use Amazon?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, yes we do. We are perfectly imperfect environmentalists on our sustainable living journey. Sometimes, Amazon has the product we want with fast, free shipping, so we use Amazon\u2019s services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There will likely always be Amazon links on this site because I want sustainable living to be accessible to all. Some businesses need the fast free shipping to keep their clients or employees happy. Some parents need those <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3AtVa6L\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">bamboo diapers<\/a> delivered next day. Amazon has pretty much everything, so it\u2019s convenient and necessary for some.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, if there\u2019s a die-hard Amazon shopper, I want to provide them with better eco-conscious products\/choices. Excluding people because they want to shop on Amazon won\u2019t move the needle. Providing better alternatives for Amazon AND better alternatives on Amazon is the way to make the biggest impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Now with all that out of the way, let\u2019s talk specifically about eco-friendly online shopping alternatives for Amazon.&nbsp;<\/h5>\n\n\n<div class=\"banner_wrapper\" style=\"\"><div class=\"banner  banner-835 bottom vert custom-banners-theme-default_style\" style=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Earth-Breeze-2-1-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Earth-Breeze-2-1-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Earth-Breeze-2-1-1-768x192.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Earth-Breeze-2-1-1-400x100.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Earth-Breeze-2-1-1-600x150.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><a class=\"custom_banners_big_link\"  target=\"_blank\"  href=\"https:\/\/shareasale.com\/r.cfm?b=1983441&#038;u=2819490&#038;m=123155&#038;urllink=&#038;afftrack=\"><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shop Secondhand Stores or FB Marketplace<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Secondhand shopping is a great alternative for Amazon as many items you want to purchase are just as good secondhand. Obviously, there\u2019s limit to what you might be willing to buy secondhand and what\u2019s available in a good condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So check out online thrift stores or Facebook Marketplace that have a vast array of items available. FB Marketplace can be a great place to hunt down furniture or items that with a little DIY love can become amazing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shop Certified B Corporations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A quick internet search of an item followed by the word certified B corporation can find you brands you can trust ( \u201citem certified B corp). Certified B corporations are must meet and hold verified high standards for social and environmental performance, transparency to the public, and legal accountability of balancing profit and purpose.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have truly found that sustainability equals transparency. If a business will tell you everything they do and are trying to do for the environment from how they run the business to how their employees are taken care of, then it\u2019s definitely a business I want to support.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Buy From a Brand Directly<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Amazon obviously is a platform selling other people\u2019s products. That typically means the brand\u2019s products can be found online and are likely sold online on that brand\u2019s website. So a great alternative for Amazon is to actually buy directly from the brand! Take out the middle man per se.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A great example of this is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/EarthBreeze\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Earth Breeze detergent sheets<\/a>. They are available and sold on <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3AmDaeg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Amazon<\/a>. At first it might look like a cheaper price on Amazon. However, if you buy directly from Earth Breeze and sign up for the subscription, then it\u2019s cheaper the first purchase and every time following (Don\u2019t fret on the subscription, you can cancel any time\u2026literally after your first shipment!). It also guarantees you get it in recyclable packaging and with carbon neutral shipping (unlike Amazon).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure to check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/best-ecofriendly-laundry-detergent-sheets-earth-breeze-review\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">full review on Earth Breeze<\/a> and why we love them!<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"banner_wrapper\" style=\"\"><div class=\"banner  banner-81773 bottom vert custom-banners-theme-default_style\" style=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2048\" height=\"348\" src=\"https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/EarthHero-Banner.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/EarthHero-Banner.png 2048w, https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/EarthHero-Banner-768x130.png 768w, https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/EarthHero-Banner-1536x261.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/EarthHero-Banner-400x68.png 400w, https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/EarthHero-Banner-600x102.png 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><a class=\"custom_banners_big_link\"  target=\"_blank\"  href=\"https:\/\/www.awin1.com\/cread.php?s=2920901&#038;v=23846&#038;q=416671&#038;r=990765\"><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Resource List of Alternatives For Amazon<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Below is a list of great alternatives for Amazon ranging from marketplaces with everything like Amazon to more category specific stores for clothing or entertainment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eco-friendly Online Marketplace Alternatives<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1536\" src=\"https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/20220818_070920-1-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Woman on computer shopping on Etsy, one of many alternatives for Amazon\" class=\"wp-image-83303\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/20220818_070920-1-scaled.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/20220818_070920-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/20220818_070920-1-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/20220818_070920-1-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/20220818_070920-1-600x450.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">EarthHero<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>EarthHero is a one-stop eco-friendly online marketplace super similar to Amazon.

Many small businesses can\u2019t afford to offset their shipping emissions, but Etsy automatically does it for every business on there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Big Living Little Footprint even has an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/EtsyShop\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Etsy shop<\/a> where we sell our DIY plans as downloadable pdfs!<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id83277_bedaaa-51 > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id83277_bedaaa-51 > .kt-row-column-wrap) > .wp-block-kadence-column{justify-content:start;}.kb-row-layout-id83277_bedaaa-51 > .kt-row-column-wrap{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);row-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);padding-top:0px;padding-bottom:0px;grid-template-columns:minmax(0, calc(20% - ((var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem) * 1 )\/2))) minmax(0, calc(80% - ((var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem) * 1 )\/2)));}.kb-row-layout-id83277_bedaaa-51 > .kt-row-layout-overlay{opacity:0.30;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-row-layout-id83277_bedaaa-51 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:repeat(2, minmax(0, 1fr));}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kb-row-layout-id83277_bedaaa-51 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}<\/style><div class=\"kb-row-layout-wrap kb-row-layout-id83277_bedaaa-51 alignnone wp-block-kadence-rowlayout\"><div class=\"kt-row-column-wrap kt-has-2-columns kt-row-layout-right-golden kt-tab-layout-inherit kt-mobile-layout-row kt-row-valign-top\">\n<style>.kadence-column83277_efc94f-59 > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column83277_efc94f-59 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column83277_efc94f-59 > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column83277_efc94f-59 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column83277_efc94f-59 > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column83277_efc94f-59 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column83277_efc94f-59{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column83277_efc94f-59 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column83277_efc94f-59 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column83277_efc94f-59 inner-column-1\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\">\n<p class=\"has-theme-palette-8-background-color has-background\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rstyle.me\/+GyPRNhJk05K7c4TX-AQDJA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>Shop Etsy<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<style>.kadence-column83277_3cef21-98 > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column83277_3cef21-98 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column83277_3cef21-98 > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column83277_3cef21-98 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column83277_3cef21-98 > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column83277_3cef21-98 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column83277_3cef21-98{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column83277_3cef21-98 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column83277_3cef21-98 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column83277_3cef21-98 inner-column-2\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Zero Waste Store<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The Zero Waste Store has a ton of household products and personal care products for everyone.

So if we can find something for free or borrow it, then that\u2019s what we do alternatively to going shopping! Here\u2019s a couple additional ideas for if you\u2019re looking to skip the whole shopping step of looking for alternatives for Amazon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Check Out Buy Nothing Online Groups<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond FB Marketplace, there are Facebook communities called Buy Nothing Groups. They are local groups that you can join where users offer up things they no longer need for free. You can request an item you\u2019re needing to see if anyone in the group has one to give away. Or you can put an item up yourself instead of tossing it into the recycling or trash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some local Buy Nothing Groups are more active than others, so it depends on the community. If there isn\u2019t one in your area, then it\u2019s easy to start one too. Help yourself and others!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just do a quick search on Facebook to find your nearest group. It\u2019s truly a great community full of neighbors giving away items to reduce waste and it saves money!<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"banner_wrapper\" style=\"\"><div class=\"banner  banner-83241 bottom vert custom-banners-theme-default_style\" style=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"351\" src=\"https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/ZeroWasteStore_Chef.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/ZeroWasteStore_Chef.png 1000w, https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/ZeroWasteStore_Chef-768x270.png 768w, https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/ZeroWasteStore_Chef-400x140.png 400w, https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/ZeroWasteStore_Chef-600x211.png 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><a class=\"custom_banners_big_link\"  target=\"_blank\"  href=\"https:\/\/shareasale.com\/r.cfm?b=1778001&#038;u=2819490&#038;m=110853&#038;urllink=&#038;afftrack=\"><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Borrow From Family, Friend, or Neighbor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I can\u2019t stress enough how easy and free it is to ask someone if you can borrow something from them. Maybe you need a chainsaw to remove some brush or tree limbs. Ask around, and I bet someone you know will have one you can borrow instead of buying one. We\u2019re definitely the family member who has a lot of tools that our friends and family borrow from!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This can even go beyond borrowing. Friends who have grown kids, but still have baby clothes will typically happily part from them if asked or even just offer them to you! You might offer them a consumable gift like wine or baked goods in return as a thank you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So next time, ask around first if you need something rather than instinctively hopping online to buy it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shop Your Home<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Ever buy something, and then within a few days or the same day, find an item in your house that would have worked instead? Definitely been a victim of that scenario! With any size home or apartment, we always seem to have a lot of stuff. Even if you\u2019re organized you forget about items.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So next time you think you need to buy something, I highly recommend doing a sweep of your house first. You\u2019ll be amazed what you forgot in the basement or realized you had in a storage bin and that it might fit the need perfectly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>I hope this resource list of alternatives for Amazon helps you find some more eco-friendly options for shopping. Or even try not \u201cbuying\u201d at all by using other avenues of borrowing and gifting! It\u2019s all a balance and about making progress over being perfect. So don\u2019t lay on any guilt and just strive to make better eco-conscious purchases in the future.<\/em> <em>Let us know what you think in the comments below!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:28px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1500\" data-id=\"83440\" src=\"https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Amazon-Alternatives-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-83440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Amazon-Alternatives-2.png 1000w, https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Amazon-Alternatives-2-768x1152.png 768w, https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Amazon-Alternatives-2-400x600.png 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1500\" data-id=\"83439\" src=\"https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Amazon-Alternatives-3.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-83439\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Amazon-Alternatives-3.png 1000w, https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Amazon-Alternatives-3-768x1152.png 768w, https:\/\/www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Amazon-Alternatives-3-400x600.png 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-small-font-size\"> <em>Disclaimer: This post includes affiliate links, and I will earn a commission if you purchase through these links.
