thinkgreen Tote Bag

First to recommend

Description

Whenever I think about that island of plastic grocery bags the size of Texas that's out there in the Pacific it makes me ill. We all need to change our habits and start taking our re-usable canvas totes with us to the market. Okay, I'll get off my soapbox now...
Anyway, this cool tote has a beautiful depiction of a tree combined with some seriously funky type and will show your support for the planet and all things green. Happens to be another of my designs from my shop at cafepress so everybody crack those wallets open and snap one up today! :^)

Solio - Portable Solar Powered Charger

44 people recommended this item

Description

This is going straight onto my wish list... a bit on the pricey side but who ever said saving a planet comes cheap anyway? Based on all the positive recommends here this looks like a no-brainer. I've been thinking about a solar charger for awhile now but didn't have a clue as to what was a good one.... guess I do now! Just double-check to make sure there's a tip for your brand of phone... looks like my LG will work.

Simpatico Green Prefab Prototype

First to recommend

Description

Okay, THAT didn't take long... I have a NEW prefab favorite! Drool, drool... you had me at "roof deck".

From jetsongreen.com:

It will include some of the following green elements:
• Passive solar design
• Living green roof
• Floor-to-ceiling Energy Star windows for natural light
• Skylights to bring natural light into the building core
• Soy-based spray foam insulation for a tight envelope
• Indoor/outdoor spaces made with FSC-certified woods
• Wood composite rainscreen siding
• Solar thermal and photovoltaics
• Rainwater harvesting for landscaping with Rainwater HOGs.

With striking features such as the contemporary second-floor overhang, generous windows, and upper-level deck spaces, the home is likely to receive considerable attention in the next several months. If you want to follow future progress of Simpatico Homes, make sure to subscribe to their blog or follow Simpatico Homes on Twitter. We'll keep you posted ... (via jetson green)

"I am not a paper cup"

Description

This cup captures the look of the ubiquitous disposable coffee cup with an eco-friendly, completely reusable design (yes, I'm an environmentally conscious coffee geek). The porcelain cup also keeps in the heat better than paper walls.

Eco-Composter Rotating Garden Compost Bin

2 people recommended this item

Description

For all that kitchen waste that would normally end up in the landfill in a plastic bag that takes god-only-knows how many centuries to break down.
Throw in your yard waste like leaves & clippings, etc. and in a few weeks you've got fresh compost to enrich your soil and make your plants happy campers.

Along with plastic grocery bags, plastic water bottles are, environmentally speaking, one of the worst inventions ever. Let's all pledge to never buy water in plastic again and pick up one of these instead!
