"The holiday season is a time for giving and renewal, and you can help the planet by giving environmentally friendly gifts. We updated our sustainable gift ideas to help you choose eco-conscious presents for the men in your life-whether that's a friend, spouse, father, or son-that will help them reduce their impact on the planet. Society is a long way from achieving sustainability; however, the products in our list take steps toward better outcomes by reducing plastic waste, reusing materials,"
"The Stone Paper Notebooks from A Good Company are a statement any artist will appreciate. With pages made from limestone in a solar-powered factory, these waterproof notebooks can handle watercolors, pen, or pencil. A Good Company offsets its CO2 emissions created in its production and transportation processes, making this one of the most responsible products on the market. Project Repat turns old T-shirts into memorable quilts, preventing tons of textiles from ending up in landfills."
"The company provides good-paying jobs to U.S. workers at its two factories based on one of the founder's insight that too many T-shirts were being exported overseas and ending up in landfills there. There's a great story involving a traffic jam in Nairobi and a shirt labeled, "I Danced My Ass Off at Josh's Bar Mitzvah." A gift should come with a memorable tale. You can hear the story on Earth911's podcast."
Holiday gift choices for men can be environmentally friendly and reduce individual impact on the planet. Many sustainable products reduce plastic waste, reuse materials, and make leftovers compostable or recyclable. Stone Paper Notebooks use limestone pages produced in a solar-powered factory; the notebooks are waterproof and accommodate watercolor, pen, or pencil, while CO2 emissions from production and transportation are offset. Project Repat converts old T-shirts into quilts, keeps textiles from landfills, and provides good-paying U.S. factory jobs. Personalized textile gifts create memorable stories and prevent overseas dumping of apparel waste.
