Eat to Ease Consumption:

How can a good breakfast make us less energy-dependent? If every U.S. citizen ate just one meal a week composed of locally and organically raised meats and produce, we would reduce our country's oil consumption by over 1.1 million barrels of oil each week.

Strange Invisible Perfumes Organic Eaux de Parfum

Why It's Good:

The names are enchanting and the scents, made from organic botanical essences, are seductive. Eaux de parfum like Moon Garden is reminiscent of wild jasmine and crisp, fallen leaves on a still-warm, autumn night, while Fair Verona is intense with fresh lilies balanced with notes of citrus and cardamom. With six different scents, you're sure to fall in love with one of them. And by the way, we're semi-convinced that these stellar scents also have some sort of secret, organic pheromones in them—is it just us, or are there suddenly more cute love interests sidling up to us now that we're wearing these scents?

Why It's Green:

Each scent is handcrafted by perfumer Alexandra Balahoutis, who refuses to use any synthetic or commercial-grade ingredients, which often contain harmful, non-biodegradable toxins. The company also actively seeks out ingredients that are sustainably grown and which come from fair trade sources. When these ingredients aren't available, they make their own organic, chemical-free essential oils! Furthermore, their products are packaged in carbon-neutral paper boxes made from recycled fiber, and when you order your perfume, they ship it to you in a box packed with biodegradable packing peanuts (not that icky, awful Styrofoam stuff). The icing on the green cake? They donate part of their "Magazine Street" perfume sales to the Common Ground Collective, an organization dedicated to the environmental restoration and sustainable rebuilding of New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina.
