Green sport is growing…slowly!

$0.05 bottle deposit whats up with that?

Hi everybody. Im originally from New York-a place with 5 cent bottle deposits, which means you give them an extra 5 cents for every bottle and then when you recycle it you get your deposit back.

So the question is "are five cent bottle deposits good?" YES! I can't tell you how many bottles I have to see on the side of the road just walking a… Continue

Recycled cotton textiles are produced from excess clippings from pre-consumer sources, which are typically discarded during the apparel cut and sew process. Clippings are then sorted by color and chopped into a fine linty material called "shoddy". The shoddy is then spun into a yarn that is used to produce… Continue

Mythbuster: Increased water use of organic cotton?

A little while ago I talked to the head of a well-known snowboard brand who is very much in favor of sustainability and tries to push this topic within the company. Against quite a bit of resistance he manages to overcome some internal obstacles to launch multiple products containing organic cotton. At one of the first press conferences announcing this new move he got some very critical feedback from a, let’s call him “green” journalist that said: “Well, congratulations, you have now moved to a… Continue
