Use Your Purchasing Power to "Green up" the World
I recently bought myself a new wallet.My old one was black and dull. This new one is yellow and cheery looking but that’s not its most important feature. What I love the most is that it is made out of recycled plastic! I bought it off ETSY. Go on the website and type in “recycled plastic”. Be prepared to be amazed. Thousands of people all over the world are busy making stuff out of single use plastic. They are part of the solution to our “plastic problem” and you can help by using your money to purchase their products.

Here’s the info for the creator of my new purse. Her name is Wanny Iovino. She’s from Italy and sews beautifully. The wallet was even packaged in recycled material. After taking the picture below (found inside the package) I shredded it and will use the shredded paper in my compost. How’s that for circular economics?
