Sustainable options
According to Grand View Research , global production of essential oil was 180 000 tons in 2015 and is predicted to reach 370 000 tons by 2024, with 8.4% annual growth. Imagine all the resources needed for growing plants and distilling such amounts of essential oil. Therefore, this selection is specially researched and curated for their eco-friendly extraction methods, sustainable farming practices and/or utilising a species from a less commercialised origin. Learning more about these alternatives from an environmental perspective is definitely a bonus when practising aromatherapy; we give back to nature like how she has always given us since the beginning of time.
