See Ya CFLs:

Recycle used CFLs at your local Home Depot, IKEA or check Earth911.org for drop-off locations in your zip code. If your state permits you to put used or broken CFLs in the garbage, seal the bulb in two plastic bags and put it in the outside trash. Don't incinerate, as CFLs contain a small amount of toxic mercury, an average of about 5 milligrams, which would get released into the air.

Fruit + Nut Tile Box

Why It's Good:

Yes, you can be purely decadent without throwing caution to the wind: These handcrafted chocolate tiles are made from top-quality, natural ingredients—and they're low in sugar and packed with antioxidants and fiber, so this chocolate is actually good for you and anyone you give it to! The box set comes with Currant + Almond, Cherry + Coconut, Apricot + Pistachio, and Fig + Hazelnut.

Why It's Green:

Vere runs its own chocolate factory in the heart of Manhattan, so quality control is totally in its hands. The company handcrafts its chocolates using only pesticide-free, sustainably grown and harvested cacao beans from Ecuador's rainforest, ensuring that the local farmers were paid fairly for their product. Ingredients are all natural (organic whenever possible) and free of additives, chemicals, artificial sugars, and gluten.
