Don't forget the United Nations Climate Conference today!



The United Nations Climate Conference serves as a meeting for political parties all over the world to discuss climate change.  With this summer's extreme weather attributed to climate change (http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2012/jul/10/extreme-weather-manmade-climate-change), and in light of the disastrous floods we are seeing here in the UK this week, this year's conference particularly resonates with us.

Just small, daily lifestyle changes soon make for big results when it comes to climate change.  We're pleased to be able to help customers make these small changes, by offering ethical fabrics that improve both our environment and the lives of the people who make them.

We're looking forwards to hearing more from the event, and you can find out more here: http://unfccc.int/2860.php

CALL FOR CLIMATE CHANGE | Everyone's going green!

The United Nations Climate Change Conference, held in Doha, Qatar, starts Monday 26th November - a week today!


Forest protection, sustainability and carbon emissions are just a few of the topics that will be discussed, and just a few of the things that we are deeply passionate about here at Offset Warehouse.

It's pretty hard for us all to fight climate change on a daily bases but small lifestyle adjustments soon make for big results which benefit all of us. We're pleased to be able to help customers make these small changes, by offering ethical fabrics that improve both our environment and the lives of the people who make them.

We're really looking forwards to hearing more from the event, and you can find out more here: http://unfccc.int/2860.php
