Ok, so it’s not that easy unfortunately. If you’ve ever eyed a pair of shoes or article of clothing online and waited until the extra incentive of a 10% off sale to buy them, you understand the benefit of that last little push toward your purchase. It doesn’t have to come in the form of a sale, though; why not something bigger and better? Right now when you buy from Horny Toad or Simple Shoes 10% of your purchase will go to the WE Campaign and solving the worldwide climate crisis. A project of the Alliance for Climate Protection, a nonprofit founded by Al Gore, the WE Campaign works to enlist the the citizens of the world as climate activists who will work on the dire state of our planet, while helping people understand the urgency of the global warming problem and its solutions.

Mama needs a new pair of shoes!  And what better time than now, in the aftermath of all that spring cleaning?  Terra Plana makes it that much more irresistible with their funky collection of eco-friendly shoes, like the quilted Juniper pump pictured here.  Not only is it ergonomic (i.e., very comfortable), it’s also made from recycled quilts from Pakistan and Bangladesh, with the forepart consisting entirely of recycled rubber.  Ever eco-responsible, Terra Plana makes all their shoes lightweight and sources material locally whenever possible, so as to minimize energy consumption.  This beautiful pump is available in four different quilt patterns and colors for $200 at www.terraplana.com.
