I want this!

Roxy, Volcolm, and a bunch of other brands have made eco-friendly totes. I've never bought one because I think they're overpriced and because I'd probably never use it. But this Eco Warrior Bag is FREEEEAKIN' awesome! It becomes a Mexican Wrestler Mask when it's empty!! Granted... not many of us would go around wearing a bag on our heads for the sake of the environment (willingly, at least) but it's still a very cool idea! Props to the Japanese for their awesomely weird products!



The bags come in different colors. Check it!

I'd rather be skateboarding...

... than doing credit memos.

Who knew that skateboarders were so enviornmentally conscious?? Check these awesome skateboards (including my beloved Arbor board, Arnold) made from bamboo!!
Arnold!

These are only Sector 9 and Arbor boards... and I'm sure there are more out there. I just put these models up cuz they're the prettiest :D They also use bamboo in their apparel!

Check out the descriptions from Sector 9 and Arbor about the materials they use for their products:
Bamboo is the most environmentally friendly alternative available today. Its superior performance also makes it an ideal fabric for a life based around surf, skate, and snow.

For us, Bamboo falls in-line with a belief that you can't just be “green” for the sake of being green. If it were that easy we'd all be wearing hemp. We want our customers to expect improved performance and style when making an ecological choice.

Today there are no natural fabrics that are 100% “green.” But when considering how the available natural fibers are cultivated, harvested, produced, and function for the end user - it's clear that bamboo is by far the best solution.
With an eye toward the environment, and patented laminating process, Sector 9 started making boards from 100% bamboo. An ideal raw material, Bamboo can regenerate itself by up to 4 feet a week. Save a tree. Ride a weed!!!
