We love bamboo
We’ve reviewed bamboo in all shapes and forms, and one of our favourites is from Shoo-foo. We reviewed their Spa Combo, a supersoft and luxiurious combination of towels. With a bath towel, hand towel, and face cloth all packaged together in a convenient trio, it’s a must have for any bathroom.
Organics are great
Wear the Earth has something for everyone, as well as great gift options. From bedding to towels, baby items, home and body products, accessories, and yoga gear, it’s almost impossible to shop here and leave without an order. Check out our review, followed by some holiday shopping!

Holiday entertaining
Love having friends and families over at the holidays? Hate coming up with menus? Fear not. Colleen Patrick-Goudreau has you covered with The Vegan Table: 200 Unforgettable Recipes for Entertaining Every Guest at Every Occasion
Raw resolution
Try something new in 2010 – adopting a raw vegan diet. Even if it’s not permanent, the health benefits are worth it for a few times per week. Jennifer Cornbleet shows you how to expand your options of raw vegan cuisine with easy, inexpensive meals in her books Raw Food Made Easy For 1 or 2 People
Hu.mane gifts
Choose an eco-friendly alternative to that leather wallet that you’ve chosen for your hard-to-buy-for brother-in-law. Opt for a wallet from hu.made, who create handmade, eco-friendly bags and accessories, each prepared by a “real, live human being rather than a machine.” All of their gear is sweatshop-free, made within the US, individually manufactured.

And for all that shopping…
Remember to take your reusable bags when you go holiday shopping these next few weeks. We recommend the Winnipeg-based b.b.begonia reusable shopping bags, driven towards the chic lifestyle while simultaneously reducing our eco-impact.

You need think about it. Despite the emails, the overwhelming evidence showing global warming is happening hasn’t changed.
“The e-mails do nothing to undermine the very strong scientific consensus . . . that tells us the Earth is warming, that warming is largely a result of human activity,” Jane Lubchenco, who heads the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, told a House committee. She said that the e-mails don’t cover data from NOAA and NASA, whose independent climate records show dramatic warming.
