The Eco-Sex Revolution: How To Embrace Sustainability in the Bedroom
Environmentally responsible living is something that’s gaining awareness and popularity both in and out of the home, but it’s probably not something a lot of us think about in the bedroom. However, did you know that not only are there eco-friendly sex solutions like adult toys, massage oils, lubricants, and even lingerie, but they can be just as good as conventional options? These environmentally friendly pleasure products are the perfect way for you to start or continue your journey into a more sustainable sex life so you can love yourself and the planet at the same time!
What are eco-friendly sex toys?
Eco-friendly adult toys are toys that are designed, manufactured, and disposed of in an environmentally responsible manner, which generally means that they prevent or contribute to pollution or help reduce pollution. Think sustainable materials, replaceable rechargeable batteries, carbon-neutral production processes, and so on. Some commonly used eco-friendly materials are bioplastic, metal, wood, glass, and recycled plastic, which are renewable, non-toxic, organic (where possible), and biodegradable. This makes them safer for our ecosystems and also body-safe for you, bringing these materials leagues ahead of their competition in terms of both environmental- and user-friendliness, which is a definite win-win in our books.
How do environmentally friendly sex toys differ from traditional toys?
Sadly, most sex toys produced are made of plastics that come from petroleum and are difficult to recycle, or silicone, which is a better, longer-lasting alternative to plastic but still not a perfect substitute. Toys that run on disposable batteries contribute to pollution, and worst of all, toys made of jelly rubber materials are chemically unstable at high temperatures (like those found in landfills). They can leach harmful toxins like phthalates into our ground-based and marine ecosystems. The environmental impact of sex toys is undeniable, which is absolutely a contributing factor to a large number of people and adult toy brands switching to eco-friendly alternatives. After all, a wicked orgasm shouldn’t have to cost the earth!
