Not only do the coatings of non-stick pans contain toxic compounds which break down when heated at high temperatures, but they also emit ozone-destroying greenhouse gases at the same time! I know, now even cooking is bad for us and the environment. Crate and Barrel has come up with an alternative...

This "green" cookware is finished in Thermalon ™, the first patented ceramic-based, nano-composite non-stick coating that performs at temperatures up to 850 degrees without deterioration. Thermalon ™ releases 50% less greenhouse gases during production, and contains no toxic substances that might be released at high temperatures.

With its heavy-duty aluminum and stainless steel construction, you sacrifice nothing in performance and reduce your carbon footprint at the same time! (via crateandbarrel.com)

I never thought about all of the toxins in pans! Thanks for recommending this. I am definitely going to make the switch to an eco-pan.

I'm definitely going to buy a set of these- after reading about how harmful regular pans are that you buy on the market, its easy to see why going green isn't hard- you just have to look for it.
Obviously there are alternatives- Crate and Barrel has done a great job here, and I intend to reward them for it :)
