Gifts to Please Your Eco Warrior
Gift giving on birthdays, special anniversaries or just to say “thank you” should give as much a pleasure to the donor as the receiver.Choosing the appropriate gift depends on a number of factors, including personality, interests and relationship.For many, the key thing about any gift, aside from the thought that’s behind it, is how ethically and responsibly it’s been sourced, manufactured and shipped. There are several keen teen-age (and older!) eco warriors who would outright refuse any gift, no matter how well intentioned, if it didn’t meet those criteria.
Gift ideas for your environmentally-conscious loved ones can be tricky, but not impossible to source.For her, nothing could better express your affection and empathy than the range of natural beauty products from Andrea garland. She became disillusioned with mass produced, unethical and chemically laden skin products and decided to make her own all natural, natural, ethically sourced organic range – in the environmentally sensitive haven that is Hackney!
As eco gifts go, these are tasteful and thoroughly credible. Beautifully packaged in amber glass bottles or recycled paper with labels hand drawn by artist Melissa Thompson, the products have a very personal and unique feel. If you are of a less indulgent or romantic bent, then you can get your lady a fair trade oven mitt made from 100% cotton woven on traditional handlooms.
A word to the wise! If that’s the case you may want to hide the vases dotted about the room before one comes crashing down on your head!Granted, the bamboo or re-cycled cardboard versions would not cause too much damage, but the 100% recycled glass versions made in Spain are another kettle of fish!r! You could claim in your defence that it would be a sin to destroy such a beautiful and original product made from glass salvaged from urban recycling bins and brought to the UK by sea-freight in order to minimise carbon emissions in transport. That may not be enough to cut the mustard though!
