New for the Surf Set
Cruising Honolulu for surf, stopped by Local Motion in the Hawaii Kai Shopping Center. Asked if they had any organic cotton garments, and they pointed us to Quiksilver's certified organic logo shirts in earth brown, beyond-the-reef blue and other shades. "Feel real soft, eh?" the salesperson said admiringly. And they did, no doubt because they're also free of artificial dyes, as the label says.
Best part: Quiksilver's organic Ts, at $20, cost the same as their conventional cotton versions.
Check 'em out at www.quiksilver.com or ask for 'em at your local surf shop or clothing store.

Check out FactoryGreen. com
The Factory Green clothing line is unique because of its dedication to entirely eco-friendly production. The clothing is made from 100% organic cotton, and a few women's items are made from sustainable bamboo. Fair-trade certified workers create the products in facilities that run solely on wind and solar power. The result is a shirt that is almost completely carbon neutral, with the only associated emissions due to transport.
In addition to their commitment to sustainability, Factory Green has made a commitment to the United Nations Water for Life Campaign. A portion of all profits will be donated to the organization, which works to provide clean water to under-served populations around the globe.
