Looking for eco-friendly gift ideas this holiday season? Check out eco-conscious merchandise from the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) the Philippines and its partner organizations who are working together to give back to the planet.

More Filipinos are thinking about spending habits and their impact on the environment, so why not make it a point to share the gift of sustainability with your loved ones this Christmas?

By supporting WWF and its partners, you can gift consciously while being part of the global environmental initiatives toward the conservation of wildlife and their habitats. Sales from WWF’s #GiftsThatGiveBack campaign this holiday season will also be donated to Filipino communities in need.

The cause-based gifts recommended by WWF, the world’s largest environmental conservation organization, are all recyclable products. The items have also cut back on unnecessary plastic materials to save our oceans.

Here are WWF’s eco-friendly gifts to get for everyone on your Christmas shopping list:

  1. Aqua Carton

Say no to single-use plastic bottles. Aqua Carton’s water tumbler is eco-friendly, portable, and reusable.

The BPA-Free clear tumblers make a good present for anyone and lessen plastic waste in the process.

For every purchase of Aqua Carton reusable bottles, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to WWF-Philipinnes’ initiatives towards a future of no plastics in nature.

The Aqua Carton tumbler sporting the iconic WWF panda logo costs PHP1,299 each.

2. Bergel x WWF PH Wildlife Headwear Collection

WWF is working with local travel essentials brand Bergel to raise awareness on wildlife conservation and a healthy planet. The Wildlife Headwear Collaboration comes in three animal designs – Pawikan (sea turtle), Pangolin, and Tamaraw.

WWF is actively trying to reduce demand for illegal wildlife products and also helping governments mount a strong defense against the poaching crisis to help protect vulnerable and critically endangered creatures like the sea turtle, the scaly-skinned Pangolin, and the Tamaraw buffalo species endemic to Mindoro.

The proceeds from Bergel’s special Wildlife Collection will support WWF-Philippines’ local conservation efforts.

For only PHP295, this is the perfect gift for your adventurous friends and will help protect wildlife all over the world.
