Globally, millions of people participate in Plastic Free July to reduce their consumption of single-use plastic and Tru Earth, a Certified B Corp household cleaning products organization, issued the Tru Earth Challenge to support the initiative. Those who pledge to take the Tru Earth Plastic Free July Challenge can win $10,000 or a one-year supply of free Tru Earth Laundry Eco-Strips, which promise to ease the transition to cleaner household swaps.
Tru Earth Laundry Eco-Strips are extremely concentrated, pre-measured strips that share the benefit of cleaning powder without the chemicals. With one strip, messes are minimized, and slim and recyclable cardboard packaging reduces the burden of heavy laundry detergent bottles.
This initiative aligns with the brand's Give a Strip campaign, and the second instalment continues with Plastic Free July.
