Go Green And Prosper

Defiantly drink through metal straws, re-use plastic, and acknowledge climate change at LOOP, an eco-friendly festival taking place the whole of this month. Need Christmas presents? Swop scented candles and industrial-sized boxes of Ferrero Rocher for bamboo spoons instead, as you subtly nurture an environmental consciousness in your friends and family.

Embracing sustainability at Esplanade Park's The Incubator are over 100 local craftspeople, food and drink vendors and workshops. Peruse the furniture made from locally discarded wood as part of key partner Roger&Sons' upcycling initiative, and take a gander at UglyGood, which converts fruit waste into useful products, such as essential oils and cleaning solutions.

LOOP runs from now till 31 Dec at The Incubator, Esplanade Park. For more information, check out www.facebook.com/loopsingapore
