Use(d) your clothes

Buying used clothing is a great way to save money and reduce your impact on the environment. If thrift stores aren't your thing, you might be interested in Patagonia's website with some great used items that are well made with the environment in mind. http://www.patagonia.com/us/ebay/used-gear?src=040512_mt1 

Sandwich bag alternatives

For those picnics at the beach or your lunch at school or work, there is an alternative to ziploc sandwich bags. Try Fresh Pak's velcro closure, insulated sandwich bags made from 50% recylced material. http://www.blueavocado.com/products/fresh_pak-48-6.html

Medals and Ribbons

For those who have medals for running marathons, half marathons and triathlons and aren't interested in keeping them, you can donate them instead of throwing them away. Medals4Mettle awards these medals attached to a Medals4Mettle ribbon to children and adults fighting debilitating illnesses. http://www.medals4mettle.org/

Turnin old into new

An interesting way to reuse: Turn Your Old Sweaters Into Brand New Items.
Send an old sweater to Reknit (http://www.rekn.it/) and they’ll unravel it and use the materials to create a new item of clothing (gloves, a hat, a scarf, etc.). Reknit creates a different piece of clothing each month. Or, if you can knit, try it yourself.
