Environmental – Reducing Your Waste
Two thousand years, ago, a mysterious man named Jesus declared that the poor will always be among us. That was an accurate observation. However, he should have finished the thought by declaring that the wealthy, likewise, will also always be among us. And that’s not necessarily an evil thing.
As the wealthy become wealthier, to a point, so do the rest of us. That’s the result of a material “arms race” that we all participate in. It begins when the wealthy, in the effort to distinguish themselves from the plebes, obtain or create goods that only they can have- “luxury” goods. Possession ignites desire among others, and demand for those goods spreads beyond the wealthy. And where there is demand, there will be suppliers. Either the original purveyors will expand their business by increasing the original supply or one-off’s, or competitors will create knockoffs. Either way, the supply expands, prices drop, and the once-rare items become commonplace and affordable (or lost in a sea of imitators). The wealthy then hunt for new symbols of status. In the meantime, the common person becomes accustomed to a slightly elevated lifestyle, and the cycle of acquisition begins anew.
You need to look for a company whose first point of contact is a visit of the site to understand your needs. They should not provide a quotation until this point to ensure you both know the scope of the work. In this quotation, good cleaning companies provide a fully specified quotation along with a Risk Assessment, a Health and Safety Policy Statement and Insurance documentation. A breakdown of the costs helps you to understand the costs involved so it helps if the cleaning companies’ pricing is fully transparent.
As nature passes from becoming abundant to scarce; as we face unprecedented threats from climate change; as the world’s materially wealthy feel impoverished in their social relationships, and as the bulk of the world’s people become acquainted with democracy and higher living standards, the perfect storm for re-defining luxury is rapidly brewing. Accordingly, a look at the latest blogs and articles on luxury reveal a fresh and welcome trend: “luxury” is moving away from solely being about having. Consciousness about HOW goods are made and obtained, and what side effects they will have on others or the environment, is creeping in. That gorgeous piece of jewelry, for example – is it made from recycled metal, or at least from a mine with proper environmental and labor standards in place? Did that meat come from factory-farmed cattle, or from grass-fed animals raised on predator-friendly ranches? (Or better yet – is it really veg meat from organic, family-farmed soy?) Is that gorgeous plank floor made from old-growth wood, or from forest-certified or reclaimed timber?
An external cleaning service needn’t impact on your everyday work – most will clean after hours of business or whenever suits your company. Make sure however, that you have chosen a company that is vetted and security checked. Cleaning companies have the expert knowledge of how to clean your premise – they usually supply their own cleaning products so you don’t have to worry about which products are best.
And that’s good news for the rest of us, because as the demand for functioning ecosystems and humane ethics grows among the wealthy, the demand for eco-friendly, fair wage and humane products will grow among the masses, as well. And the supply will follow. It always does. After all, “we” always want what “they” have, don’t we? And we’ll pay to get it! This isn’t to say that “we” aren’t driving positive change, as well – we are – but the mass craving for eco-cleanliness, authenticity and community, and, most importantly, the willingness to give up the “luxury” of low prices and throwaway material abundance for the “luxury” of quality, connection and environmental stability, will be driven largely by the subconscious urge to “live like the happy green Jonses”. You know the ones – the first snobs on the block with the cool ,000 hydrogen-powered car?
