Earth Day: Students on a budget
From large retail stores like American Apparel, to fair trade operations and charities, we've got a list that'll satisfy all your eco-gift-giving needs.
- Check out organic cotton at American Apparel and Wal-Mart! In fact, Wal-Mart even has a line of clothing, in partnership with Coca-Cola, made from recycled Coke bottles!
- Get vegan shoes from MooShoes.
- Looking for some hip, sporty, sexy new knickers? GreenKnickers has my vote for the coolest organic undies, at a pretty decent price!
- The Rainforest Site has compiled a great selection of Mom-appropriate gifts, with many under $20 and some under $10! Proceeds go to support rainforest habitat, and items are usually fair trade and environmentally friendly.
- Novica is featuring a great selection of Thai gifts with up to 10% off right now.
- Global Girlfriend uses fair trade and supports working women around the world. Hand-crafted, unique items make great affordable gifts.
- If you like Global Girlfriend, you'll definitely love Ten Thousand Villages! If you're a Canuck, they even have a Canadian site, with shipping discounts and other goodies that apply to Canadians. They also have a list of recommended gifts for college students.
