One of the things i like about the Hemp fiber in bags is its sturdiness. Hemp bags tend to be stronger and more durable than cotton bags, and some canvas bags.
At OkoBox, they feature a reusable hemp grocery bag which apart from being sturdy is priced very reasonably at $8. The design it not bad either. The hemp grocer is perfect for trips to the local market or quick runs to the dry cleaner.

MemoTrek Technologies have been making USB flash drives for some time, but this time they are putting their knowhow into making an eco friendly USB flash drive and naturally they are going to have to be made from bamboo, which is why they have named it “Woody Bamboo” the name may not be encouraging but the design is something else.

I went fishing around to see if their green offerings are as cool as their search engine. I found not one, but a few goodies. See my HOT! Google green finds below.

We are all aware that much of the attention today is set on the Olympics and most countries are gearing up for the prestigious meet. While some are training hard, the matter of outfits and uniforms is also up and the air and you have to hand it for the Canadian team for using gear that is made from bamboo.
Most of their uniforms will be made from Chinese bamboo and for sure this trend will be followed by other Olympic participants as well.
