OK...I know that many of you have a desperate shoe or handbag obsession (you know who you are)...at the same time you truly care about the environment (why else would you be reading this?). Well, I feel like I have found the equivalent of kilojoules-free (that is calories for you Americans) chocolate-chip ice cream (my favourite). It is greenpig. Seriously. greenpig is an Aussie company that offers offsets for a whole range of stuff. Most offset companies have offsets for your car, travel, house...but greenpig has offsets for a designer hand bag or shoe purchase, a christening, a boy's night out and even Christmas Day. So, for $19.50 you can turn your shoes into a beautiful pair of totally green stilettos. That does not mean you need to be piggy and buy tons of shoes - after all being green means reducing consumption - but for those must-haves at least you can do the right thing. And, how much more interesting to tell people when they compliment your shoes/bag that they are also green? xxxPS I can think of a few friends who might get one of these as a Christmas present!
