Opt for an ecological advent calendar

From year to year, we become more and more aware of the somewhat dramatic ecological situation in which we find ourselves. Melting ice, temperatures that are too hot, too cold, peak pollution in the air, water pollution, overconsumption,… Always more for humans and less for the planet! That's kind of why NUOO was born. To show the example, on our scale, that more ecological alternatives, more respectful of people and the environment are possible. This is also why for 5 years, we have been offering you an ecological advent calendar . And we are not ready to change our habits since we are doing it again for our 6th year!

What is an ecological advent calendar?

An advent calendar is a little pleasure that we are used to offering ourselves every year to wait until Christmas Eve. Every day, until December 24, we open a box to discover a present, for our greatest pleasure! Advent calendars can be more or less classic (gourmet, figurines, etc.) or downright original (seeds to plant or digital). The possibilities for having fun before Christmas with a calendar are very wide!

In recent years we have also seen ecological advent calendars appear. The goal ? Have fun while creating as little waste as possible and supporting committed companies. Vegan, zero waste, French cosmetics or local products, everything is possible!

The Ethical Advent Calendar can even be made at home using recycled boxes, pieces of string, and products purchased from local stores.

Why choose this type of calendar?


An advent calendar is a non-sustainable product . From the moment all the boxes are empty, it ends up in the trash. If it were only made of cardboard, we could recycle it but the problem is that it is not and that too few families practice selective sorting...

Just imagine:in 2015, INSEE counted 29 million households in France. If each of these households buys at least one Advent calendar per year, then there are 29 million calendars and therefore 29 million waste more potential, not to mention the packaging of the products found inside, transport, etc. Quite a staggering number!

Opting for an ecological advent calendar means choosing a product that has been designed to produce as little waste as possible and be more sustainable. It also means supporting committed companies who seek and propose real solutions to existing environmental problems.
