Dreaming of a Green Christmas – 10 Top Eco-Friendly Gifts

Great Green Gifts for the Tree-Hugger on Your Holiday Shopping List

By Pearson Brown  |  November 25, 2009


For the girl or guy on the go with no time to plug-in, the NOVOTHINK’S Surge Solar Charger Case comes in handy. It’s the first Apple-licensed solar charger that can power up her iPhone or iPod touch anywhere under the sun. For the fashion-conscious use, the case comes in four metallic colors. $69.95. solararcadia.com.

If it’s not a question of 'if' but 'which' bag to use, then the handsome courier-design Chico Bag MESSENGER rePETe is the perfect gift. The fashion-conscious line is helping humanity kick the single-use bag habit in style, with bags made of 100 percent recycled materials. $17.99. chicobag.com.

Shine a little light, and share a little light with kids in need. The IKEA SUNNAN solar desk lamp combines low-energy LED technology with solar panels that charge up in the sun. For every SUNNAN lamp sold in IKEA stores, a SUNNAN lamp will be donated to children in developing countries. $19.99. IKEA.

Take dedication to the Earth to a new level of consciousness with eco-pure Blue Ice Organic Wheat Vodka, a USDA Certified Organic product, made from 100-percent locally harvested, organic winter wheat and pristine Idaho water. Available where spirits are sold nationwide. $30.

Give a gift that encourages all of us to reduce, reuse, recycle with the stainless steel Tappening Water Bottle. Developed as part of a campaign to encourage people to drink tap water to save the Earth from bottled water pollution, these stylish canteens were called the 'one of the hottest products of the year' by Good Morning America. All proceeds go back into the campaign. $18.95 plus $3 shipping. Tappening.com.

Give a warm and glowing feeling with natural, clean-burning Big Dipper Wax Works Beeswax Candles, available in a variety of beautiful colors, shapes and scents, and packaged in recyclable or reusable containers. $2.99 to $28.99. Whole Foods.

You Go Green Girl – Gifts for the Eco-Conscious Woman

Antioxidant Carrot is blended with skin softening Shea & Cocoa Butter to leave the skin incredibly soft and smooth. Chamomile, Rosemary and Lavender soothe and decongest the skin leaving it radiant. $59.90. theorganicpharmacy.com.

For the outdoorswoman in your life, when it’s too hot for a winter coat and too chilly for shirt sleeves, she’ll feel just right in the REI Muir Woods Fleece Vest. Made of 62 percent recycled fleece, this eco-friendly mid-weight vest offers warmth without bulk. $34.93. REI.

If the fashionista in your life complains she never has the right shoes, give her the Earth Solar Vegan Casual Shoe.

She doesn’t have to be a world-class runner to appreciate the New Balance 70, an everyday shoe for running around town or hanging out at the house.
