PortiaJewelry.com launched an environmental campaign! A portion of the proceeds of all green colored jewelry and all of the proceeds of promotional items will be donated to environmental causes. These items will be made available throughout the website and will also be featured as a collection under Save the World, located in the main menu on PortiaJewelry.com. Look out for the Save the World with Jewelry logo, shown in the detail pages for all jewelry that qualify for this campaign!
Portia Jewelry has committed to giving two percent of proceeds on all qualifying jewelry and the total proceeds for all promotional items annually, to help support environmental issues, such as global warming. We realize that this is an urgent issue, and we feel that it is most often overlooked or ignored because many of us feel that we can't make a difference. It is shocking to see how easily we ignore these issues so, we want to join the "march" in hopes that our customers will also realize that the little things we can do will make an enormous difference. Most people are not aware of how much money they can save in their energy bills, gas expenses, water bills and so much more by making small changes!
The team at PortiaJewelry.com has begun to make small changes both as a business and in our personal lives. Some of these efforts include changing all of our lighting to compact fluorescent bulbs and ensuring that all electronics are turned off at the end of the day. Not only do we recycle all paper, plastics, metals and other items, but we are also making an effort to perform in-house recycling by using scrap paper instead of sticky note pads. We are now sending ink toners to get recycled. We have switched to tissue paper as opposed to bubble wrap and wouldn't dare use styrofoam! We realized we were already using energy efficient computers and printers and will make sure to continue to do so! In our personal efforts, we have checked are cars to make sure that the tires have sufficient air in them as well as many other small efforts. To the right of this page is a list of things we can all do! This list comes from the stopglobalwarming.org website. Please visit this very informative site to learn how to help. Make sure to join the "march" at stopglobalwarming.org
