Some shoes are easier to make from eco friendly or sustainable materials, such as leisure shoes like trainers, flip flops and other types of simply designed shoes.
3
These sports and recreation style shoes are easier to make from sustainable materials because they do not have the same amount of work going into them, granted some sports shoes, which are designed for sports, are going to be more complex, but these are leisure shoes.

Clothing has come a long way when it comes to eco friendly or ethical design, there was a time when this title would have meant woolly jumpers and jeans with a load of whole it them, but it is all different now as designers begin to add fair-trade, ethical and organic materials into their designs.

Have you heard of Go Green Girl.net? Well its a funky organic tee shirt shop based in the USA. They feature tees with earth friendly sayings, and each tee is 100% green.
There has been an explosion of online tee shirt shops as of recent. You have plenty to choose from. What i like about the Go Green Girl tees is they have funky hip designs, with swirlies and what not. The t shirts are made with water based inks, and made in the USA.

I love this sexy side tie organic cotton tank set by eco designer Clare Bare. It is always nice to find a vintage set that is also eco friendly.
This adorable vintage fabric set features an adjustable side tie top and bloomer style bottoms. The top is loose fitting with organic cotton twill ties, and thrifted white lace along the bottom edge. The bottoms have lace along the bottom edge of the hips. The fabric is vintage cotton, and the bottoms a

It is very interesting that so many items are now being made from wood, this clearly is a step back in time to when there was no metalwork’s or foundries. However, these have the feel of something like you would get in a Chinese restaurant, made from a nice soft sustainable wood. The set is eco friendly to produce and is biodegradable to dispose of when finished with.

Very neat concept that i just stumbled upon on Springwise. For those that dont know, Springwise is like a giant business idea portal. The green restaurant being launched via social networking is called Elements.
Essentially the restaurant and its concept is being formulated by group members, and each one has input into its development. It is the latest craze in the net world, as it plays on collaboration, web 2.0 tools, and something called crow

There is no doubt that plastic has been getting some bad press recently, in fact it probably goes back around ten or twelve years when plastic was first named as an eco badguy. It’s been deemed an eco badguy with good reason, too. After all, plastic hangs around the planet for hundreds of years after initial use, and sadly, the plastic pile just keeps growing.

Just because you go to the gym or like to do a bit of exercise does not mean that you have make do with just any old equipment, that is made from virtually anything and you know is definitely not eco friendly just by looking at it. But now there are green alternatives, like the Lotus pad Mat, these are green and come in some great designs too.

As the credit crunch takes hold, many people resort to other methods of either making more money or getting the goods that they want, but without paying the high prices. Other people just pay or do without, but this is the way of the world.
However, as money gets tight, spending extra on organic food becomes more of a choice of cost rather than conscience. Maybe this is why the UK’s largest supermarket chain has started to place electronic tag

Are you an avid hand cream user, like me? I usually plaster myself with lotion all day long. I think i get it from my mother, who also continuously has herself slathered up with great creams and lotions.
I especially have a liking for natural lotions and hand creams, such as Trilogy. This hand cream is infused with organic rose hip oil, which makes for soft hands and even softer cuticles.

Initially you would have thought that the basic cup of coffee would not be very eco friendly, but it really depends on your point of view. With over fifty per cent of Americans enjoying a daily cup of coffee that works out at a lot of coffee, power and water, but with no viable alternative things could be much worse.
However normal instant coffee would have been grown in factory style farming by huge companies this may not be too eco friendly, b

No matter how much you try it is very difficult to have an entirely green wedding, there is just too much going on. But what you can do is try and make some of the things that stand out and make a lasting impression on people as green as possible.
This can even include the wedding dress itself; this centre piece can be fairly eco friendly without losing any of its style or chic. One particular designer who is great at making eco friendly wedding

These are great T Shirts by Sector, which are not only naturally green, but they are also coming in other colours too like Pink, Grey and Red.
The printed section has been using ink that is water based and therefore better for the environment than normal ink. The Sector Push T Shirt is priced at $25, comes all sizes and colours making it harder for anyone to refuse one of these.

It’s hard to find good eco friendly food for your dog these days, unless you actually make it yourself, which takes time and probably works out more expensive.
