The ‘green’ sign refers to the environmentally friendly methods used to create products. Their aim is to use use the minimum quantity of natural resources and not to pollute nature with gases and other types of waste. In this case, the furniture is made of solid wood, which is not treated with chemicals and substances that can represent a risk for people’s health. Furthermore, wood furniture is something that can last for years and years, so you do not need to think about replacing it.
Nevertheless, if you want to throw something away, you should think about recycling it or giving it to a fabric that reuses wood. It is important not to waste such material because producing new one leads to sacrificing trees and contributes to deforestation.
Forests cover 30% of the surface of Earth and represent our source of oxygen. Cutting them down destroys the natural habitat of different species and helps the level of pollution to rise. In 2013, only in Brazil 29% of the Amazon rainforest was cut down, according to BBC.
