The very excellent @medickinson challenges the #materialise audience to rethink what we carry our shopping home in. How can lay-people make decisions on the sustainability of different products? 
Pulp (paper bags) and cotton (tote bags) both come with high water costs. "NZ is really bad at making our own stuff - we ship trees overseas, where someone else turns them into bags & then ships them back here" @medickinson
Not surprised to hear that @medickinson's engagement ring contains lab-grown diamonds & recycled gold! Same for me (but mine is sapphire and platinum) ☺ #matsci in action! @MacDiarmidInsti #materialise
