A Few of My Favorite Things

It's Green Tuesday. Since I haven't written in a while, I thought I'd make up for it with a list of great environmentally-conscious products. Here are my top 10 products for helping the environment:

• Crate & Barrel cloth napkins--come in a set of 12 Crayola colors: http://www.crateandbarrel.com/ SKU 214582 .
  
• World Market recycled plastic grocery bags--huge and sturdy.
  
• Rice Dream rice milk--a yummy alternative to cow's milk.
  
• DVR--no more need for mountains of VHS tapes.
  
• Method brand cleaners--both for the body and to clean with--they're biodegradable: http://www.methodhome.com/.
  
• Seventh Generation--Found at Target and, of course, World Market, they sell cleaning and personal products. I use their dishwasher powder and laundry detergent, but they also carry household cleaners and, get this, eco-friendlier disposable diapers: http://www.seventhgeneration.com/.
  
• Toyota Prius--I love my car--I am ecstatic that I get 43 miles per gallon.
  
• Sappos Natural Shampoo Bar--I containerless shampoo in a bar! I got mine at a little shop in Benzonia, Michigan called Bee Dazzled.
  
• Recycled materials made from foods--I have paper made from bananas (http://www.ecopaper.com/ they also have lemon, mango, and coffee papers) and biodegradable eating utensils made from potatoes (here's one source: http://greenearthofficesupply.stores.yahoo.net/pocuasboxof2.html)
  
• A Fresh Squeeze--this online newsletter comes twice a week by email (free to sign up) and gives tips and info about the environment, especially pertaining to Chicago (and Seattle): http://afreshsqueeze.com/

So, that's just the tip of the iceberg of what's out there. What is your favorite green product?
