5 Cute Brands That Also Help The Environment

In This Article:

1. Happy Earth

This brand is one of my favorite. It's extremely affordable ($25 for tees) and donates half of its proceeds to various causes. Not only are no harmful dyes or animal-based products used, but the packaging it comes in is 100% recyclable. Part of their message is being "determined to stop climate change, deforestation, and ocean pollution." It's a great buy and their shirts and beanies are really comfy.

2. Ten Tree

Their message is in their name, they plant 10 trees for every purchase! So far they've planted over 25 million trees and the number goes up along with their purchases. Their purpose is to "revitalize our environment and inspire." They use coconut made buttons instead of plastic, hemp products, cork, organic cotton, recycled polyester, and other sustainable materials. Although they aren't the cheapest brand ($30-45 for tees), it's reasonably priced considering how many trees they plant for a single purchase and the quality of the product itself.

3. The Parks Apparel

The Parks Apparel works on protecting land conservations. They've currently protected over 17 million square yards of land for endangered wildlife in order to combat extinction. Their goal is to "to create a collective consciousness of outdoor appreciation and awareness." They encourage promotion, leadership, and involvement in their cause. Their tee-shirts range from $30-40 and give off an Indie Bo-Ho vibe.

4. Serengetee

Serengetee was founded in 2012 and uses fabrics from in Africa, Asia, and Central America in fair trade. They support "artisans, their families, and ancient fabric-making traditions" from around the world. They give back 10% of profits to communities around the world that are struggling. They take fabrics from artisans and sew them in Los Angeles to support products made in America while also helping those in need. Their tees go for around $35-40 and range from all sorts of different color options.

5. Sand Cloud

https://www.instagram.com/serengetee/

This brand donates 10% of all profits are donated to marine life. Given the word "sand" in the name, this brand is beachy with light colors for the blankets and towels. They support the Marine Conservation Institute, The Surfrider Foundation, The Pacific Marine Mammal Center, San Diego Coastkeeper, Hawaii Wildlife Fund, and Ocean Connectors. All of these ocean protecting organizations are non-profits and use Sand Cloud's donations to protect ocean wildlife.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead.

You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
