Sustainability statement

There are simple choices we can make every day that make our world a better place in which to live. By taking small steps to gradually replace conventional products with healthier alternatives we can work towards a sustainable future for our children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren...

Green Ninja offers environmentally-friendly and safe products that allow people to make positive choices for themselves, their family and the planet. These products are carefully sourced and tested on our own family. When possible, we provide products that are organic, fairly traded, vegan, sweat-shop free and/or cruelty free.

Green Ninja is more than an eco-friendly store selling eco-friendly products. We have gone to great measures to reduce the impact of our activities on the environment. Here are a few ways we incorporate sustainability into our business:

Green energy

  • Green Ninja is bullfrog-powered (Canadian green electricity provider that sources electricity exclusively from wind and low-impact water power producers)
  • The servers of our hosting provider are also run on green energy

 

Zero waste paradigm

  • All packing materials are either recycled or recyclable. When possible, we use boxes, packing peanuts and bubble wrap from shippments we received.  We also use boxes from around the house and shredded documents for packing.  No trees were harmed in the packaging of your products
  • All our business furniture is either recycled or reclaimed
  • To eliminate printed correspondence, we use an e-commerce based website and invoices are emailed. Our comprehensive website provides detailed information on all our products to eliminate the need for printed catalogs . The minimal printing that is done is on 100% post consumer recycled or reclaimed paper
  • Everything is composted or recycled

 

Investing in our future

  • 1% of all profits are donated to the David Suzuki Foundation. If you've never heard of this great Canadian, do yourself a favour and take a few minutes to read about him and his foundation. This world could use more folks like him...
