Alexandra, well-known for her expertise in circular economy and sustainable living, emphasizes the importance of embracing sustainable practices. "Currently, we live as if we had 1.75 Earths, and attaining global sustainability goals necessitates consumption within the planet's boundaries. Fortunately, studies indicate a growing awareness of our climate impact and a shift towards more conscious and circular consumption," says Alexandra Davidsson, a sustainability expert and member of Elfa Insights.
The idea that people are becoming more aware of sustainable living and are willing to make changes, is backed by a study commissioned by Elfa and conducted by Kantar Sifo.

Additionally, 74% express a desire to adopt even more sustainable habits, especially when it comes to second-hand items like bikes and tools.
Also positive is that both Alexandra and Christine Dalman, Elfa's Storage Expert, highlight that making strides toward sustainability doesn't have to be challenging. Here, Christine shares three tips on how to make it easier to live more circularly simply by utilizing the advantages of a smart storage system.
