As stated in the email, the “Peaceful Fight” is over, as of today. But do not worry, I am not going anywhere 🙂 The GGwarrior.com project was a 5 month project, starting from March 13, and ending at today, August 13, 2020.
Each month represented a classical element. At the beginning of the fight (March 2020), you were still using UPS, and you were not using their Carbon Neutral Service. However, you changed your carrier to DHL, and again, on behalf on mother nature, I would like to thank you. Now, your products are shipped with DHL’s lovely electric cars, and sometimes with electric bikes (in the Netherlands).
You still LOVE plastic.
You also launched the first “sustainable” collection, Off The Grid. However, you ship that collection with plastic, and this is not correct. Also, to be honest, most of the products from the collection includes leather trim, and I also do not understand the point of that.
The “real” sustainable product in the collection is, the following shoe, because it does not contain any leather.
Stop Using Plastic, Gucci!
Fun Fact: Every month of the fight represented one classical element (:
Today, 4 months had passed in our Peaceful Fight. Mother Nature vs. Gucci.
Here are some remarks;
UNDISCLOSED
Gucci still loves plastic.
Gucci made the so-called “sustainable” collection, Off The Grid. However, the name is inappropriate and I suggest it to be changed with “ON THE GRID” since it comes with plastic!
Unfortunately, stopping plastic by 2030 is not really promising as well as it does not sound really sustainable.
What about all the plastic that you will cause between 2020 and 2030.
We can not change the past, as you already caused too much plastic pollution, but we can change the future!
Also, I have a kind objection to the recent update in your website. You simply can not claim that you are sustainable considering the amount of plastic that you use! Please remove the “Responsible” icon. Or even better, you can say the following “Irresponsible, due to Kering’s decisions”
Also, UPS provides carbon neutral service, but you do not USE it. Therefore, the last chain in the process is not carbon neutral, that being from your warehouse to the consumer. I know this is Kering’s decision.
There’s a war on Nature And we can all choose what to do So if you feel like I feel, the Love of the Earth Then. you could be an Earth Warrior too! ‘Cause I’m a warrior … how about you? I’m a warrior. how about you?I’m a warrior, Earth Warrior True-born Pagan, yeah I’m a Warrior, nature soldier Fightin for the earthThis is my home it’s where I belong From the clouds in the sky to the roots and stones See the sun in the sky make me feel so high I see the full moon shine make me feel so fineHer river my blood her rock my bone Her earth my muscle her heart my soul Her children my children, their freedom my goal I’ll be fightin ‘fightin’ fightin ‘fightin’ fightin for them allI’m a warrior, Earth Warrior True-born Pagan, yeah I’m a Warrior, nature soldier …
Over hills and over meadows See the crow fly, feel her shadow Over woods and over mountains Searching for a warHer wings embrace each strife and battle Where swords they clash and chariots rattle Seeking out the one whose time Has come to take the bladeMorrigan ancient crone of war I see your face, I’ll cry no more Morrigan ancient crone of war Come lift me on your wingsMorrigan ancient crone of war I hear your voice, I’ll breathe no more Morrigan ancient crone of war Come set my spirit freeKill for Morrigan Maim for Morrigan Fight for Morrigan And you will Slay for Morrigan Die for Morrigan Morrigan crone of war
Call me Satan call me Satyr I’m Cernunnos I am Pan I’m the laughter in the forest I’m the happy horny one Dionyssos Kokopelli Lord of animals Green Man And though it started long ago My story’s just begunSee the horns upon my head The hooves on which I dance Feel the passion rising up Lose yourself in trance There are many Gods inside your head And I am only one Believe in me I’ll set you free To worship me is funBecause I stand for freedom The forest wild untamed I’m creative Chaos No I just cannot be chained You people think you’re different But to me you’re all the same So if you feel in need of me Well you can call my name Call me Satan Call me Satyr I’m Cernunnos I am Pan
You’re in pain – That’s why I wrote this song for you You’re insane – That’s why I wrote this song for you You’re in pain – Don’t you know this song is about you You’re insane – But you know this song is about you Don’t you, don’t you, don’t you know this song is about you Don’t you, don’t you, don’t you know this song is about you Free bird fly Although you think your wings are broken Free bird fly ‘Cause living is more than simply hoping Free bird fly There’s no excuse you’ve got to try now Free bird fly I know you can do it So let me see you smile now Though they beat you down, you get up Though they beat you down, you get up …
As you know, your products are being shipped with incredible amount of plastic. As you know the new so-called sustainable collection, Off The Grid also came with plastic.
This is against the idea of the collection, since the collection is supposed to be sustainable. Your packaging is not sustainable. Your Off The Grid collection brings plastic to the planet. STOP USING PLASTIC!
Here I kindly show you the alternatives.
I hope Gucci changes this unsustainable practice of using plastic as soon as possible.
Currently, you use the following plastic;
According to Pregis.com, it looks like you use the following:
GUCCI’s current choice for their packaging: Pregis, On-Demand Air Systems.
