Evolved By Nature Newsletter

September 28, 2020

We create healthier chemistry between people, the things they love, and the planet. We also create this bi-weekly newsletter — curated with interesting and inspiring stories relevant to anyone interested in making our industries and our economies more bioharmonious.

The framing of a global water crisis has been put on the back-burner as today’s climate-related disasters continue to make headlines. However, protecting water quality is not mutually exclusive and has never been more relevant in the climate crisis. CDP’s latest report, Interwoven Risks, Untapped Opportunities, focuses on water pollution – a problem that has been met with oversight by some of the world’s most polluting industries, including fashion. From toxicants like synthetic dyes and other chemicals to microfibers, the textile industry plays an enormous role in water pollution. Although there’s no coordinated effort to address this nearly unspoken problem, innovations that aim to mitigate this problem continue to develop – like our Activated SIlk technology. In tandem with this ongoing transformation, the industry must have frequent discussions and create coordinated plans to address widespread environmental degradation, including water quality protection.

Environmental crises seem to be often painted as highly conceptual, invisible risks. Especially today, we know all too well that “climate crisis,” “biodiversity loss” and more are phenomena with real-world repercussions, all amounting to a wider trend of cumulative environmental degradation. It is challenging, but worthwhile, to be positive in a time filled with crises and very few plans. Positivity doesn’t come without action. It is a continued discussion and self-evaluation. Inspired by the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a champion for equality and a reliable environmental supporter on the Supreme Court, we must continue to fight for the movements we care about in a way that will lead others to join us. Continuing to think up and implement climate-friendly, equitable solutions, no matter how many obstacles stand in the way, is the only path forward.

Each arrangement was made with local flowers that should have been out of season, but that were still blooming due to climate change.

Instead of plastic sleeves, we wrapped these bouquets in samples of Evolved By Nature’s carbon reductive leather and sent them to fashion brands – literally putting the power to make a difference in their hands.

That’s why we’ve used the power of biotechnology to create a platform of peptides that support your skin’s natural production of valuable foundational proteins, like collagen, claudin, involucrin and more.

The skincare industry has relied on petrochemicals The skincare industry has relied on petrochemicals for far too long.

Petroleum jelly (or petrolatum) is a byproduct of non-renewable fossil fuels.

Sure, it has some uses. But when you look at that tub full of grease, it makes you wonder if there are better alternatives.

We wondered, too. And then we went and created those better alternatives.

Until now, making leather water-resistant meant co Until now, making leather water-resistant meant coating it with a forever chemical finish.

That didn’t sit right with us — covering a natural material in plastic defeats the purpose. So we created a better solution: Activated Silk™ L1, a biofinishing system made without PFAS.

It raises the performance of leather by every measure, outperforming existing traditional petrochemical finishing in everything from colorfastness and flexibility to, yes, water resistance.

Endocrine disrupting chemicals can work in unpredi Endocrine disrupting chemicals can work in unpredictable ways, causing harm in even small doses.

So why are they in so many personal care products?

Because they’re cheap, effective, and often unregulated. For decades, these chemicals have been used to preserve shelf life, enhance texture, or add fragrance — even when safer alternatives exist.

That’s why we make alternative ingredients that aren’t just safer, but also high performing, so that brands can create better personal care products that get real, beneficial results, while being formulated without chemicals of concern.

We’ll keep creating ingredients that are better for people and the planet. So that in the near future, avoiding harmful chemicals is a much less disruptive process.

Building a sustainable future means working with e Building a sustainable future means working with ecosystems — not against them — to meet our needs in a way that’s genuinely nature-positive.

It’s not easy. In fact, it runs counter to how most things are generally done. But it’s entirely possible. Especially if you love all of the amazing complexities that exist within nature. ⁠

We certainly do. We look deep inside natural, renewably sourced silk protein to find a vast array of incredibly powerful peptides. Nature has already done the hard work — we simply unlock it, using these peptides to help brands create products that are both more natural and more effective.

Our ingredients are designed to replace petrochemicals, silicones, and other questionable synthetics, transforming how industries like fashion and skincare interact with people and the planet.

Our entire deal is based on nature’s complexity, and we wouldn’t have it any other way. ⁠
