Unlike those cheap re-usable shopping bags you can buy in your local supermarket, Character Bags allow you to craft your own animal shapes. Squirrels, rabbits, butterflies—you name it. It’s kind of like origami or balloon animals for treehuggers. An additional image is available after the break.
If landfills and our wasteful ways have you fighting mad, consider venting your frustrations with the Do Box punching bag. Designed to be filled with refuse, the Do Box allows you to tenderize compost before dumping its stinking, lifeless corpse in your garden.

Start each morning off with a healthy dose of anger at the evil industrialized countries that produce the most CO2. As the mug heats up, the truth will be revealed. (Not surprisingly, the US is lit up like a giant red warning siren.) Just keep in mind that there is a good chance that the manufacturing process for your beloved cup of coffee resulted in its fair share of CO2 emissions, so don’t get too smug with yourself.

Not that I’m a tree hugger or anything, but its amazing how much garbage is generated from a single cup of coffee. There’s the cup itself, the lid, that cardboard ring, the stirrer straws, sugar packets, etc. These reusable silicone lids provide a solution to at least one of those problems—so I don’t feel quite as bad when I toss my cup out of my car window onto the side of the road. Nice.

As you can see, this “melt” candle is open and honest about it’s future. It also serves as a reminder that the world’s glaciers and ice caps will suffer the same fate if we fail to act. That is why a percentage of the revenue will go to non-profit environmental organizations. A good thing, especially when you consider that this is one expensive candle.
