Eco Friendly Back to School Supplies

I know this maybe a little too late because some people already went back to school and some our done there shopping but for the last mintue shoppers here is a guide to green school supplies.

Binder



This binder is made from 100% recyclable materials. You can buy this products at any department store or office supply store. You can even buy it online at looseleaf.com and while your there get some recyclable folders and index cards.

Pencil Case



This cute pencil case is made from car tyres. You can get this product on ebay, littlecherry or thegreenstoreonline.co.uk which are all online sites.

Bag



This bag was made specially from seat belts. You can buy this bag and many more at maggiebags

Water Bottles



These water bottles can now be find everywhere and anywhere. They range in price but are typically cheap. Not only are they good for the environment because you are reusing them but they are not for you too. If you buy the stainless steel ones you don't contain BPA which is a chemcial found in plastic water bottles at can get into your water if exposed to sunlight and heat.

Recycled Paper



The easiest way to help the environment is getting recycled paper. You can find this anywhere. I actually have some printer paper that I brought at staples last year. It cost the same as the regular paper so way not buy recycled paper.

Notebooks



While your out buying recycled paper get recycled paper. They are the same as recycled paper but in notebook form. If you want some cute one go to delight.com

Pencils



We use and use pencils all the time so when you run out get some wooden recyclable ones.


Lunch Bag




If you need a stylish way to hold your lunch invest in a lunch bag made from recycleable materials. You can get this one and more at reuse it

Go Green This Summer

1. Cool Air
Instead of turing on the air conditioner everytime it is hot outside. Open up the windows and stay cool by turning off the lights, and not moving as much.

2.BBQ Lover
Use wood, or charcoal instead of propane for your BBQ. It is much cleaner for the earth. Also use green friendly cleaning products when cleaning your grill.

3. Farmer Markets
Buy food that is grown locally. It using less engery to get to your plate than food that is grown in another country. Plus in the summer there are more farmers markets.

4. Green Plate
Next time you have a BBQ use plastic or reuseable plates instead of paper plates.

5. No Posion
Instead of using bug spary which is every bad use garlic or greener alternative.

6.Green Trip
If you are going to vacation try going on a road trip into of flying on a plane it uses less energy and can be more fun.
