In previous post, we have already tried to understand how to diminish our environmental impact during the next Christmas times. Now we try to find the most ecological gift.
About clothes, Greenpeace remind us that we can opt for “toxix free” labels that thanks to the Detox campaign launched in July 2011, firms such as Nike, Adidas, Puma and H&M has been engaged to eliminate toxix materials from their products by 2020.
WWF, instead, suggest do not give exotic animals or derived products, avoiding to feed their illigal commerce; to make shopping using the bycicle or public ways of trasportation; to give organic products deriving from the fair trade.
If you have children, good are the toys of Ecogiochiamo, online shop of sustainable and low impact articles made with natural materials (wood, paperboard, silk) and atoxix colors.
Two obejcts, stressed also on the website www.mestieredimamma.it for their educational and ecological peculiarities, seems to us very stimulating. The house on tree realized in paperboars that can be built without scissor and glue and that can be colored and Crokitoo, table game made by paperboard with accesories in natural wood, that learn the eating habits of different animals.
For a solidal Christmas, Altromercato shops propose interesting ideas adapt for all ages, for house, body care and other objects attentive to environment and producers rights. On its website, moreover, with a funny test, you can choose online the right gift for the person who will receive it, without finding themselves in the scuffle of the stressful rush to the final present.
For us the best present remains a good book, preferring editors that print on paper friend of forests. Among books reviewed by Envi, we indicate in particular way Meno 100 kg by Roberto Cavallo. Another very recent book is Basta il giusto (quanto e quando) - “Just the right (how much and when)” - by Andrea Segrè (Altraeconomia edizioni). They are two books that give good ideas to list the yearly proposals for the new year, with the best wishes that in 2012 we all will be able to reduce waste and consequently our ecological foorprint.
