Eco-friendly suggestions for Christmas shopping
The Holiday Season is supposed to bring out the best in us. And so it is natural, in this time of frantic buying, that we stop to reflect on ways to make our choices friendlier to the earth and those we share it with.
We know that consuming less is part of the solution, now here's the rest of the solution: Choosing to give great gifts that stand out for their social and environmental value. Here are some of the best gifts ideas chosen by ethiquette.ca, that will help you make better choices in your holiday shopping.
In the category Stocking Stuffers under 50 $, here is a great alternative to the common Christmas card, a Plantable Garden Greetings™ from Botanical Paperworks.
The base fiber of this card is cotton and it is made with wildflower seeds. After use, you can plant these cards in a pot of soil, and the embedded seeds will grow into colorful North American wildflowers. Finally a card that we will be able to enjoy even after reading it!
In the Category Feelgood and Look Good Fashions, we fell in love with MycoAnna's Eco Chic Accessories.
Every piece of MycoAnna’s collection is made out of recycled materials. Like this beautiful Foulard Pandore available online at Boutiquemycoanna.com .
In the category Eating Drinking and Being Merry we can find Plantatree™'s Chardonnays, Cabernet Sauvignons and Merlots.
They are quality California wines with a twist. For each bottle purchased, the supplier will plant one tree and thus offset the calculated carbon footprint generated from vineyard to table.
