Sustainably Influenced

Welcome back to Season 8 of Sustainably Influenced. In this episode we're diving deep into a topic that's at the heart of sustainability – transparency. As we strive for a more eco-friendly future, it's essential to know exactly where our products come from. And that's where technology comes to the rescue.

In this episode, we're shedding light on how innovative technologies, particularly blockchain, are revolutionising transparency across various industries, ensuring that sustainability isn't just a buzzword, but a verifiable reality.

**This season is sponsored by Ernest Jones**

Ernest Jones, Britain's favourite high-street jeweller, is launching an exclusive new collection called "Origin by Ernest Jones”. This dazzling collection features 28 diamond rings, from classic solitaires to contemporary halo designs. But what sets it apart is the transparency it offers. Every diamond in the collection is fully traceable, responsibly sourced, and handcrafted in recycled platinum or gold.

Ernest Jones is a proud member of the World Diamond Council and the Responsible Jewelry Council. They've partnered with trusted suppliers to ensure their diamonds are conflict-free, responsibly sourced, and come from ethical mines that prioritise the well-being of miners and the environment.

And guess what? Ernest Jones is the first UK retailer to bring this fully traceable, blockchain-powered collection to their high-street stores. So, join us in leading the way to a more sustainable future with Origin by Ernest Jones. Let's make a difference, one diamond at a time! Shop the collection now.
