Really Dirty Diapers:

Buy reusable cloth diapers not only for a cleaner environment (disposables can take 250-500 years to decompose), but also for the health of your baby. The average parent uses 6,000 - 8,000 disposable diapers before their child is potty-trained. These diapers contain sodium polyacrylate, the same substance removed from tampons in 1985, and dioxin, listed by the EPA as the most toxic of all cancer-linked chemicals.

Marimekko Oeko-tex certified Helia bedding

Why It's Good:

Lavender is a soothing and calming color choice for bedrooms especially if you are among the many who suffer from insomnia. This floral bedding from our favorite Finnish design gurus will coordinate with lavender walls and have you catching some z's in no time (and in style).

Why It's Green:

This bedding is made of 100% Oeko-Tex certified cotton so you can rest easy knowing that the fiber was produced with a limited amount of chemicals, lowering its environmental impact. Traditional cotton on the other hand requires a high level of environmentally toxic pesticides for cultivation and harvesting.

Where To Get It:
