Right Now We’re Loving: Eco-Friendly Tote

So, maybe being eco-friendly doesn’t have to cost a fortune! Inspired by Al Gore’s successful documentary An Inconvenient Truth, the designers of the drool-worthy Hayden-Harnett handbag line introduced this canvas tote printed with environmentally safe dyes. And even better, for every bag sold, 10 trees will be planted, and $25 will be donated to a combination of global warming charities including stopglobalwarming.org and Conservation International. Since the bag’s introduction earlier this month, 870 trees and the company has contributed an additional $2175 to stop global warming. And come on, it’s just adorable. To purchase the tote for $55, go to haydenharnett.com.

Maria, I know most of the bloggers are from the US. I have noticed that some of the bloggers are Canadian. I was mentioning it to the Canadian bloggers who may not know that you can get them in Canada for $1. I can’t believe how rude people get when I mention anything about Canada.

I would buy the bag if I had $55 to spare on a bag but I would much rather make my own for 5 dollars and donate to those charities on my own to know exactly how much they were getting from me. I like Al also but he is some what hypocritical. He speaks of gas guzzling cars helping to cause global warming but in Truth he was driving a mercedes that got less than 18 mpg and then driving to his home he was in a giant SUV. What gives?

Im in charge of the promotional items in my college. Im very interested in purchasing eco friendly totes. Is there a website where i can buy the totes and personalize them for under 3 dlls each?
