9、 nearly half of the plastic we produce is single-use only.This shoe brand, however, is riding the wave of change and is on a mission to help clean up our waters and rid the sea of plastic bottles that can take up to 400 years to break down.

17、 Vivobarefoot cares about not only its business but also public services.CA sedentary(久坐的) lifestyle has long been linked to poor health, and plenty of evidence suggests it may also have other effects.
