Spread Your Green Meme
Date: December 4, 2007 | Category: Fashion, Lifestyle, Men, ecoMan
Promotional tchotchkies proliferate our lives - from the dentist to the car dealership. And now that there is a green way to spread your meme. You can make a sustainable statement with your promo items that is hopefully more in line with the rest of your business practices. Long Beach based company, Rethreads, provides a lot of the traditional doodads minus the environmental mess. While their array is too vast to cover, I’ll clue you in on some of our ecofab favorites: A 100% biodegradable corn-plastic coffee mug. A recycled plastic sport bottle. A burlap mesh trucker hat. Bamboo coasters. An organic cotton hoody. Many things are listed as recycled, but we recommend inquiring about what percentage is recycled material before you think you’re getting a truly “green” product. This is the sort of company where the shades of green are on a serious continuum, so you need to clearly communicate your needs and values to them. They have an enthusiastic staff that is dedicated to taking the company as far down the green brick road as possible, so let them know that you embrace their commitment. They’re also proud members of 1% for the Planet.
