Feed the Whole World

According to The Wall Street Journal, the U.S. goes through 100 billion plastic shopping bags annually, and making them requires an estimated 12 million barrels of oil! Choosing reusable shopping bags is one of the easiest ways to cut down on your waste and take a simple step in the path towards living sustainably. Thankfully, there are now a lot of eco-totes on the market, but they are not all created equally! A little more fulfilling than most is the Whole Foods FEED 100 bag. (more…)

My Little Pakora

As an eco-conscious adult, you’ll want your legacy to live on with your like-minded little ones. My Little Pakora, a line of planet friendly clothing and accessories for baby, takes pride in its low-impact processing (using certified organic cotton from sustainable farms and toxin-free dyeing), helping ensure a green future for the next generation.
The darling designs are inspired by founder Sonia Gupta’s South Asian heritage. What’s more, My Little Pakora features helpful educational material on how to live more healthfully, incorporating local and organic nutrition, yoga, and natural remedies into your routine as part of pregnancy and parenting. In India, these practices have existed long before today’s contemporary trends. So My Little Pakora is not only selling the green goods, they’re living it as well.
Raising a culturally clever kid has never been so easy. Or so adorable.

Ditching plastic bags is an honorable goal but if you want to lift your eco efforts to the next level, using totes made from organic cotton is the way to go.
