Green Gear for School!




http://www.closetheloop.com/products/gifts.html

A website with the coolest selection of recycled gifts to give! Some of you may recall having seen these pens at Chapman University at the beginning of the year. We were lucky enough to have these pens made from recycled cardboard and imprinted with the orientation theme which was "BRANCHES-Go out on a limb". These went out to all of the new students and the orientation staff and I was absolutely amazed. This didn’t come from the idea of a faculty member, but a student dedicated to helping our earth. It fit perfectly with the theme and hopefully made many aware that there are actually products like this out there.







Wow. Quite the attention grabber. This paper is actually 100% recycled paper and can be used when it comes to replacing your printer paper or any other writing tablet.



A good looking recyclable notebook selling for $4.75. It is true that it is pricey, however, it is alway a smart option if you are given the choice.
These are only a couple of products, but I hope it inspires any of you to know that there are items out there that we must use for school, but we can find products that won't hurt the environment anymore than we already are doing. Also, beyond school products, just by searching for green gifts, you are able to find some of the coolest and most unique items on the market! I know I plan on getting many of these items for my friends and family this holiday season, so feel free to also check it out and feel great about your gift giving. I mean, I don't know what to get my dad anyways.
