BushKlawz Solid Colognes Travel Variety Gift Set

This product was recommended by Russell Stanley from The Mens Attitude

Solid Colognes are the new trend in the market of fragrance. They are a great environmental gift because they are vegan and mostly made of natural oils, beeswax, and a few other ingredients. The way to use a solid cologne is by scraping a little bit of it and rubbing it to particular areas on your skin just like a perfume or cologne that you usually apply. It is a great way to introduce someone to solid colognes giving them the choice to try between 4 different scents.

Bamboo Skateboards Complete Skateboard

This product was recommended by Rob Greene from Price of Meat

Bamboo is a readily replenishable resource, and it’s light, durable, and strong which makes it the ideal material to make a skateboard from. And as well as encouraging whoever you buy it for to become more physically active, they can use it to commute and make smaller journeys on, which will cut down their car usage and dependence, which will reduce their carbon footprint, and ultimately be a far more environmentally friendly way to get from A to B.

ROWAN – Natural Dry Shampoo

This product was recommended by Ray Leon from Pet Insurance Review

Rowan For Dogs’ ‘The Dry Shampoo,’ flaunts a fresh, natural coconut scent, and is free of sulfates, parabens, talc, and propellants—it’s eco-conscious and an excellent environmentally friendly gift for a dog owner! It’s made with Aloe Vera, Tapioca Starch, and Baking Soda, which are all-natural ingredients that’ll help keep pets looking and smelling great. The Dry Shampoo is also a waterless way to reduce odor and refresh in-between baths. Additionally, it’s recommended for all breeds and breed-mixes with fur or hair coats and short or long coat lengths. This shampoo is an ethically sourced and elegant way to freshen up furry friends.

Advanced Bio-Enzyme Pet Stain & Odor Eliminator Spray

This product was recommended by Isabel Ludick from Hepper

This product is perfect for pet owners who want their homes to smell fresh and clean again. Let’s be honest, pets aren’t exactly the best-smelling family members. It also doubles as a pet stain remover. Accidents can happen to even the best-trained pets. This enzymatic spray penetrates, binds and lifts stains from almost any surface. It’s eco-kind and contains only natural fragrances.

Socks that Plant Trees

This product was recommended by Anastasia Allmon from FRP Legal

What could be better than socks that plant trees? Not only are the actual socks super warm and cozy, but $1 of the proceeds go towards planting trees – which is enough to plant 10 trees. I love the fact that I can give a practical gift and do some good for the environment at the same time. Plus the same company also has socks that protect sharks or elephants in a similar fashion.

Funny Food Plastic-Free Produce Bags

This product was recommended by Stacy Lewis from Eternity Modern

Shopping for food is a part of everyone’s household. These punny (pun intended) produce bags are not only fun but also better than single-use plastics.

Prime 6 – Premium Charcoal

This product was recommended by Stacy Lewis from Eternity Modern

This is a perfect gift for dads who love the grill or a friend who loves to go camping. Charcoal is often made with chemicals and fillers that are bad for your health and the environment. Prime 6’s sustainable charcoal is 100% made from recycled hardwood-waste sawdust and burns four times longer than regular charcoal.

Eco-friendly Bath and Body Products

This product was recommended by Stacy Lewis from Eternity Modern

I love a good bath after a long tiring day. If you must unwind, consider doing it kindly. I love using these bath and body products from Humankind. Their products are designed to reduce single-use plastics and are made with natural ingredients.

Solar Power Bank, Qi Portable Charger

This product was recommended by Richard J. Brandenstein from FBR Law

Making environmentally friendly changes to your life can start with just small replacements. For example, this portable charger is completely solar powered and includes a flashlight and a compass, making it more versatile than a lot of other portable chargers, whilst being able to recharge at any time during the day.

POLIVIAR French Press Coffee Maker

This product was recommended by Anna Silver from CookForFolks

Those seeking to be more eco friendly can easily overlook their coffee making process. Large coffee machines require lots of water to clean, are inefficient at using water and energy, and create undue waste. With this french press you will undoubtedly reduce water wastage, be more energy efficient than any coffee maker, as well as having coffee grounds you can compost easily – all while still making enough coffee for a large group. Using steel rather than undue plastic equates to more heat insulation and a more energy efficient tool for measuring water and retaining heat.

Reusable Beeswax Food Wraps

This product was recommended by Ross Jurewitz from Jurewitz Law Group

I honestly can’t recommend making the switch from saran wrap to beeswax wraps – not only are they way easier to work with and actually provide coverage for your food, but they’re completely reusable and last for a really long time – it feels like an investment, but the time and money they save you in the long run is so worth it.

Green Toys Fire Truck

This product was recommended by Jonathan R Brockman from Brockman Injury Lawyer

I couldn’t believe how drastically bad the children’s toys industry was for the environment, but when my grandchildren we born I realized that I wanted to make sure that they were playing with toys that were sustainable and non-toxic, and luckily, Green Toys make such things. You can’t even tell that these toys are made from old milk containers, they feel very solid and have fully moving parts.

Steeped Coffee Single-Serve Packs

This product was recommended by Vicki Jakubovic from Steeped Coffee

Steeped Coffee is available for contactless delivery on Amazon with Prime Free Delivery, at select Whole Foods, and through premium environmentally conscious supermarkets, luxury hotels, and offices with craft coffee services. It’s been named among the best “instant” coffees by Good Housekeeping and ESQUIRE, and has been included in Ellen Degeneres’ popular food subscription box. In addition, the company is giving back by providing 20% of all sales to FEEDING AMERICA to help fight hunger, and provides free coffee to healthcare heroes. “Steeped Packs are the easiest way to make a delicious cup of coffee,” Wilbur Says. “You shouldn’t need to perform chemistry before you’ve made your coffee.” Simply steep each Steeped Bag in hot water for about five minutes to allow the coffee to develop its distinctive body and flavor. There is no machine, no noise, no cleanup, no destructive waste. As for flavor? Even the most discerning coffee connoisseurs in the industry are singing the praises of Steeped Coffee. Barista Magazine is a believer: “Like a tea bag—but for coffee? This new product from Steeped Coffee might just be one of our fave new ways to brew coffee on the road.” “Finding Steeped has changed my coffee drinking life,” raved one reviewer on Producthunt.com. “It’s my favorite new brewing method and I can’t believe more people haven’t heard of this yet. It is going to be huge.” Entrepreneur’s Handbook concurs: “You’re likely going to see the Steeped Coffee methodology in hospitals, offices, hotels — places where single-serve coffee reigns — and perhaps on your next flight. Features of Steeped Coffee include: – 100% Specialty Coffee: quality coffee ethically sourced directly from farmers – Nitro Sealed: removes oxygen, stopping the clock on freshly ground beans – Ultrasonic Edges: no glue, staples, or wasted materials for max steeping – Full Immersion Filter: non-GMO filters that regulate ideal water-in and maximum flavor-out – Guilt-Free Packaging: made using plant-based renewable and compostable materials – Micro Batching: roasted locally in small batches – Precision Ground: consistent water-cooled grinding to the micron – Pre-Portioned: consistent SCA recommended water-to-coffee ratios – Just Add Water: single-serve convenience with no machines required – Barista Approved: tested by multiple independent specialty coffee Q-graders for freshness, quality, and taste

AeroGarden Harvest with Gourmet Herb Seed Pod Kit

This product was recommended by Bobby Peel from Best Golf Accessories

Imagine having a fresh herb garden on your kitchen counter that requires little to no care, no soil, and no mess. The AeroGarden Harvest is so well-liked because of this. The control panel notifies you when to add water and plant food, and it can grow up to six plants at once (read: no green thumb required). The hydroponic system is more environmentally friendly than soil-based cultivation since it consumes significantly less water. Although this system comes with a gourmet seed packet of basil, parsley, dill, thyme, and mint, you may substitute any other herbs and vegetables of your choice.
