Native Energy x Crow
As the world becomes more aware of the impact of climate change, more and more individuals and organizations are looking for ways to reduce their carbon footprint. At World of Crow, we believe that offsetting carbon emissions is one important way to help mitigate the effects of climate change. That's why we are proud to partner with Native.eco to offer a carbon offset program that allows individuals and businesses to take action against climate change.
The concept of carbon offsetting is relatively simple. When an individual or business engages in activities that produce carbon emissions, such as flying or driving a car, they can offset these emissions by investing in projects that reduce or remove an equivalent amount of carbon from the atmosphere. This can be achieved through a variety of projects, such as planting trees, investing in renewable energy, or supporting energy-efficient technology.
The Native.eco carbon offset program that we have partnered with focuses on the development of renewable energy projects in India. These projects generate clean, renewable energy that displaces fossil fuel-based energy sources, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and helping to mitigate the effects of climate change. By supporting these projects, individuals and businesses can offset their own carbon emissions and help support the transition to a more sustainable energy future.
One of the benefits of this carbon offset program is that it allows individuals and businesses to take immediate action against climate change. While reducing carbon emissions through lifestyle changes or investing in renewable energy technologies may take time, offsetting carbon emissions through the Native.eco program is a simple and effective way to take immediate action. And by supporting renewable energy projects in India, individuals and businesses can help support sustainable development and economic growth in communities that need it most.
At World of Crow, we are committed to reducing our own carbon footprint and helping others do the same. By partnering with Native.eco and offering a carbon offset program, we hope to inspire others to take action against climate change and support the transition to a more sustainable future. Whether you're an individual or a business, we invite you to join us in this important effort and make a meaningful contribution to the fight against climate change.
Weaving in India is an age-old tradition passed down through generations among the weaving communities like a cherished heirloom, becoming an integral part of their identity. Handloom textiles are woven using natural fibers which are eco friendly, long lasting and biodegradable, reducing landfill waste. The handmade process adds a personalized touch to the textile, making it special. Embracing weaving as a slow fashion concept celebrates and preserves India's rich heritage of traditional craft while empowering young craftsmen to innovate and carry the craft forward.
Natural Dyes
Natural dyeing is a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative for fabric dyeing using parts of plants, minerals, or instead of artificial chemicals. Colors are extracted from these natural sources by fermenting, boiling, soaking them. The fabric is then soaked in the dye solution until it absorbs the color. While natural dyeing can achieve a variety of colors, they generally have a softer and more subtle appearance compared to those produced by chemical dyes.
Azo-free Dyes
Azo free dyes are an environmentally conscious alternative to chemical dyes. The azo compounds present in the synthetic chemical dyes are not only toxic for the environment but pose a great threat to the health of workers at the textile industry. Using AZO-free dyes in textile production helps to ensure the safety and well-being of both consumers and workers. Additionally, it contributes to environmentally friendly practices by reducing the release of hazardous chemicals into the environment during the dyeing process.
Hand Weaving
The traditional loom, also known as the handloom, is a simple yet versatile device used for weaving textiles. Handlooms have been an integral part of India's textile heritage, dating back thousands of years. It typically consists of a wooden frame, with two vertical posts called beams, and horizontal bars called shafts or frames. The warp threads, which run vertically, are wound around one beam and attached to the other, while the weft threads, which run horizontally, are interlaced through the warp threads to create the fabric. Handlooms come in various types, such as pit looms, frame looms, and backstrap looms, each suited to different weaving techniques and styles.
Produced on Demand.
At World of Crow, we always continue to rethink traditional ways of doing things and try to improvise those ways in alignment to the requirements of the modern world. Since 2021, in order to avoid overconsumption and completely negate dead stock, we produce our garments as and only when we get their order.
Then after getting the order, the cloth is cut, stitched and hand finished. Then it is packaged in a bag made by the handicapped people of an organization that we work with.
