When the catchphrase 鈥淎 Diamond is Forever鈥 was coined, it was unlikely that anyone could have imagined that 鈥渇orever鈥 also meant long-lasting damage to the environment because of the way traditional diamonds are mined. This often rogue industry doesn鈥檛 necessarily have to answer to regulatory bodies, leaving them free to create substantial waste and release carbon emissions into the air, as well as disrupt the biodiversity of mined areas.
Add in the effect on human lives, through slavery, abuse, violence, and even child labor鈥攁ll common in diamond mining and exploration鈥攁nd it鈥檚 difficult to justify the aggregate cost of purchasing one of these mined gems. Even mined diamonds labeled 鈥渆thically sourced鈥 or 鈥渃onflict free鈥 may not truly be, and, because these gems tend to be pricier, buyers could spend more without being certain that their diamond doesn鈥檛 have a sordid history attached to it from somewhere in the supply chain.
When it鈥檚 time to say I Do, why not also make a commitment to the earth and to humanity by choosing a more sustainable, less harmful, lab-grown diamond? Diamonds grown in a lab are chemically, physically, and visually identical to mined diamonds. They鈥檙e the same as mined diamonds, right down to the atoms; the only difference is their origin. Lab-grown diamonds are not only 100% real, they鈥檙e also guaranteed to be 100% ethically sourced鈥攁nd they鈥檙e actually 20-40% less expensive than traditional mined diamonds. With virtually zero downside, those in the market for engagement and wedding rings, as well as other fine jewelry, are opting for these man-made stones more than ever.
