How Our Company Mission and Flagship Product, Wickless Candle, Supports United Nations Sustainable and Development Goals!

While researching for ideas on how I can continue to make Honey's Scented Company better by ensuring that we keep to our brand mission and even make our products better and more compliant to the health and safety rules, I became more curious and wanted to find out how our brand truly supports and aligns to the United Nations Sustainable Goals, so I asked ChatGPT this question:

"My brand mission is to produce safe, long lasting and healthy bath and body products. My flagship product, Wickless Candle helps prevent two major problems that common wick candle causes, which are, household fires and health hazards (release of toxins and carcinogens from candle burning). My wickless candle prevents and reduces household fires and health hazards by providing a safer candle option which does not need fire to release clean unburnt scent which is good for everyone and no household fires. Can I say my business contributes to one of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals? If yes, which one of the goals aligns to my company mission?"
