GO GREEN!

In case you’ve been living under a rock for over a few months, then you’re currently aware of the current rising gas prices. With the price of oil soaring to almost $5.00 a gallon across the country, it’s caused many American’s to finally realize just how dependent we’ve become on oil. This in turn, has finally made Global Warming a realization instead of just a figment of Al Gore’s imagination.

Designers and retailers worldwide have taken this pro-earth stance and have created “eco-friendly” product lines ranging from soy candles, which are said to burn “cleaner” and 100% organic cotton clothing, which retailers often donate a percentage of the sale towards a charity or cause of their choice.

GUESS is famously known for their racy and over the top ad campaigns, but have recently created their “GO GREEN” line that features Organic Cotton Tees and Organic Denim. They even promise a 10% donation to promote Environmental Awareness with every purchase.

Green Peace Jeans $178

Guess Eco Tank $29
