Eco + Ethical How? This Zero Waste French company has a shop down the street from where I live and sells online as well. I was using bamboo toothbrushes before, which are awesome, but were hard to find in France, so I switched to this zero waste toothbrush. You keep the base, which is made out of 70% caster derivatives which is a plant that absorbs carbon, and 30% plastic.

So, you've picked all the low-hanging eco-fruit. You've changed out your light bulbs and done a variety of home energy saving retrofits. You've put in tap aerators and shortened your showers. You walk and ride your bike instead of drive as much as you can. You've even started using the clothesline in your laundry room to cut your dryer use by two-thirds...now what? Go eco-shopping to celebrate. Here are thre great products that you can use to "pitch in."

I always appreciate a designer who aims to create more eco-friendly accessories. After some time admiring these green handbags, I finally took one for a spin on Saturday. Yak Pak teamed up with recycling giant TerraCycle to craft this DEN Tote from billboards destined for landfill. The glossy fabric feels incredibly strong and it's water resistant to boot. The fairly plain colors aren't as exciting as some recycled billboard bags I've seen, although with one side white and the other blue I suppose I could treat this as two bags in one! It's important to remember that these bags were made from real billboards. That means no two are the same, and some have features that girls may regard as flaws. Mine has a few black marks on the blue side and some lighter stains on the white. Personally I think the imperfections add character, reminding us of the bag's history, but some may disagree.
