Australia Day

Australia Day means different things to different people. I feel it is a good time to reflect on ourselves and our relationship with our land. In this newsletter we are promoting only Australian products with the aim of generating awareness about purchasing locally.

Purchasing local products means they have less embodied energy in them than their international counterparts as they haven’t had to be shipped in or flown in from overseas. It can sometimes be very difficult finding locally made products when it comes to things like electronics, but when it comes down to food and household consumables such as cleaning products and body care, there are a multitude of fantastic locally made products to choose from.

As part of Todae’s product strategy, we will continue to support locally produced products, and are continually on the lookout for new products and ideas. If you know of any, please let us know at: thoughts@todae.com.au

Thoughts Into 2009

Hi,

As 2009 slowly gathers momentum (I cannot believe we are almost at February) at Todae's HQ the Todae Team have been talking about where this year will take us, we are facing new challenges. There are many questions that we have and there has been a lot of discussion around the office:

- What is Obama really going to do for the environment?

- Are we going to see even more severe natural disasters this year?

- What one product can reduce an individuals footprint the most?

- Can humans live sustainably with the planet?

So we thought we would open a forum to any questions, concerns or statements about this year. Feel free to ask anything and to contribute anything.

Hopefully we can answer your questions or just have an interesting discussion.

Thanks,

Landon
