subject: Saving The Planet With ECO Gifts [print this page] People have become educated over the past few years regarding the importance of trying to reduce harmful emissions into the atmosphere. They have become aware of landfills that are overflowing and the huge amount of waste that goes on throughout the world. As a result the idea of ECO gifts came into being.
These ECO gifts can be organic in nature or may be from recycled, reusable or biodegradable materials. This has long been a practice in Australia and is now being taken up by the rest of the world. In addition to helping save the planet, often these gifts help people in less developed nations who produce some of them.
It is a fact that most men just love to eat. One good idea for a gift would be a full basket of fruits. You should be creative and add a nice touch by decorating the basket with some fresh flowers like some red roses, as this will certainly catch his attention.
Today you can find many tee shirts that are made from recyclable materials. This will really make a nice gift for any man as they do love wearing tee shirts, especially during the warm weather months. The shirts are made of cotton and many of them have environmental friendly slogans written on them like grow more trees or recycle reuse.
One thing that has been astounding is the development of tote bags, caps and other items from used tarps. This, formerly landfill object that would have been there forever, is being utilized by an underdeveloped country to produce income. As a result, using their skills and natural products, they have been able to produce items that are in high demand because of their unique beauty and colors.
It is possible to wrap your gift in attractive recycled paper, tie it with a re-cycled ribbon and attach a recycled card. Every time you purchase ECO gifts and wrap them up in this special paper you are saving a great deal of earth space that these items would otherwise be filling.
