Another example of the impact of the dollars spent on this shirt - and every product at Patagonia - is that 1% of sales (not just profits) go to Chouinard's spin-off nonprofit: 1% For The Planet. Many other companies have pledged a portion of their revenues as well. Check it out.
Welcome to the Green Apartment!
UPDATE: Due to some major life-stuff (you know the stuff), I've been neglectful of The Green Apartment. Fear not! I'm in the process of getting The Green Apartment up and running again! Check back again soon!
ABOUT THE GREEN APARTMENT: I truly believe that the choices consumers make have the power to promote real environmental change. My focus is on products you can use - and bring with you when your journey moves on.
Have you used any of these products or do you know of some that I have missed? Drop me a line on Twitter!

BEDROOM: Green Jeans
Loomstate Organic Jeans. Who said being an environmentalist automatically bans you from high fashion? As reported in The Lohasian, Loomstate's denim products are made from 100% organic cotton.
Fellow Bostonians can find the collection at Envi, a high-end shop on Newbury Street specializing in "fashion conscious clothing for an eco-conscious lifestyle." Others can find local Loomstate retailers online.
