Another great alternative to paper towels. Each one unfolds into a 14x20 disposable towelette. The testers got 1-3 weeks out of each one. Kitchen, car, camping!
The only con is that there is a big Made in China stamp on the front; however, if we consider where bamboo flourishes, perhaps they can produce sustainable products.

Fozzils Bowlz Set

First to recommend

Description

There is a whole set with a spoon and plate, but only this bowl set appeals to me because bowls take up so much darned room! They store flat and can be used for hot or cold foods/drinks. (Doggies need water too!)

Whether backpacking, packing for a tent camping trip or going on a picnic, these can definately lighten your load!

Sea To Summit Basin

Description

Ok, so I'm all about the space saving... but what camper isn't?

The tub to wash dishes in has been a topic of conversation for a while, as it takes up a good deal of space and has limited use.

Not this baby! Collapsible, sturdy with handles? That's all I need to hear.

5.3 gallons. Buy two one for you and one for the dog!

GSI Pinnacle Dualist Cook System

Description

May be the next purchase, here.

It's all about minimizing the amount of stuff to carry, eh? These have gotten great reviews in their nesting capability. The pot comes with a straining lid (for potatoes, pasta), two coffee mugs (that are very short and wide), two bowls and two foons (what happened to sporks?)

All under 2 lbs!
BPA-free

Lightweight and multi-purpose, this can be used as a pot, mug and/or bowl. The small hole on the lid can be used to strain veggies or pasta.

Just over 4 ounces in weight, this would be perfect for hiking, backpacking and many other things! Holds a little over 2 cups.

Bioline Biodegradable Fishing Line

First to recommend

Description

Great gift for that guy that has a growing interest in eco-products ~ or those that don't... they'll use something that's given free, right?

WoW! A perfect example of how we don't even consider the environmental effects of certain things... never considered lead in lures, but I have seen fishing line all caught up in shrubs, trees and shorelines.

* 100% biodegradable fishing line (breaks down in 5 years compared the 500 years for monofilament line!)
* Retains 100% of its strength for 10-12 months (yes, you'll have to change the line every year to maintain the strength, but for 13 bucks... that's do-able!) (via Ideal Bite)

Eco Bank Sinkers

First to recommend

Description

Lead-free, degradable and non-toxic, these sinkers use a sustainable alternative to lead.

I've been by fishing lakes and the amount of fishing gear left or caught on something is unbelievable... arm your fisherman with eco-friendly tackle!
