Totally trendy summer footwear these sandals are made of hemp uppers with a recycled tyre tread for soles. How cool is that?! Plus they come with a neat hemp carrying bag. Very comfy to wear. Will wear mine out over the summer for sure.

Black Walnut Wood Ring
First to recommend
Description
When I first heard of these guys I could not believe it. The rings they produce (mine was the black walnut yin yang double knot pictured) are a personal tribute to the sustainably-sourced wood they are made from. As an owner I felt honored to be bestowed with such a beautiful and ever-present reminder of the wonder of nature. If you want a unique gift for yourself or a loved one then check these guys out.

Freeloader Portable Solar Charging System
First to recommend
Description
My hot pick for this summer whether you are in the park, on an outdoor trip or at a music festival. Let the sun be your portable battery pack. Simply charge and then use it to run a variety of devices including your cell phone, psp, ipod and more. Tough and holds charge for upto three months this is serious solar style.

About altepper:
Whilst working in central London as Head of Online Development for one of the UKs leading Business publishers I decided to start a green blog called City Hippy (http://www.cityhippy.net) which was to chart my struggle to live a green and fair life in the city. What a journey that has turned into - starting City Hippy was a life changing moment that thrust me into the broader world of ethical living.
18 months later, when my son was almost one year old, I was lucky enough to join Natural Collection (http:www.naturalcollection.com) as their Head of Marketing. Working for the UKs' leading and award-winning ethical retailer is a dream come true to be honest and I consider myself very lucky to be a part of the greening of our planet.
But we all have a crucial part to play: from changing lightbulbs to helping others take their first green steps. As Gandhi said: Be the change!!!
Whilst I have many responsibilities at Natural Collection the biggie at the moment is launching and running our blog which can be found via our site. Please do check it out and let us know what you think. Plus we are giving away a £50 voucher every month for the most useful comment.
