the sun will come out, and charge my cell phone!

I'm sure everyone has heard of these folks at Solar Style. I just love the idea of charging my cell phone with the sun.

And if that isn't enough, I can charge my soymilk frother too!

Got goods? Got green? Got - green goods?

Yet another website that tells us how much money there is to be made making and selling products that are green. Pick it up, America! We are getting less marketable every day!

A store of sustainably made stuff? Super!

"At Branch, we're all about sustainability. What do we mean by that? In short, we think that products should be made in the most environmentally-responsible way possible.

Also—and this is equally important—we think that products shouldn't have to look eco-friendly to actually be 'green'."

Branch. Get it? Like on a tree. Cause trees are 'green'.

It's clean & green all the way to the Lincoln Hole-in-the-wall...

I want to say that, yes, I don't mind doing laundry. No, really, I don't mind it. I like the feel of hot clothes coming out of the dryer, the knowledge that this stuff started out dirty, I put it in a machine and now it's clean.

This makes it all even better. Soap! Nuts! Cheap! Whooo!

When your flashlight breaks, replace it with this!

Hemp, bamboo, etc. all in a t-shirt

I love t-shirts. Well, I guess love is a strong word. How about I *enjoy* t-shirts, especially when I realize that the only reason I'd be wearing one is that it's the weekend. :)

So how could a t-shirt get any better? If it was made of hemp of course. Super duper easy to grow and low-pesticide requirements, really, it's a perfect eco fabric for replacing old, worn out t-shirts from the 80s.

And here's a company that makes them.
