Sure, this yoga mat may not be perfect for using at yoga class, but it sounds like it’d be perfect for use at home or on the go. With its built in speaker (perfect for plugging in your iPod or MP3 player), you can have your relaxing tunes going while you get your stretches in.

Made from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic, the Reflyer is a wonderful frisbee from Wham-o. And they should know what goes into a great frisbee, right?

What makes the botanical yoga bag from Wrapables so special? Well, it looks great for one thing. But more importantly, it’s made from re-run, recycled fabric with no teflon or PVC, and the construction of this bag saves three plastic bottles from the landfill.

This recycled rubber playground ball looks great, and teaches a great message. Those fun things we do as kids don’t have to be wasteful. We can make meaningful changes in our lives, and they don’t always have to have a drastic impact on our lifestyle. Remember the old days, playing kickball or dodgeball with those orange playground balls? Do it now with the Sportgreen playground ball by Baden – it works just like old playground balls, but it looks better. Oh, and it’s made from recycled rubber.

Reusable water bottles are a must, and I particularly like steel water bottles. They are stronger than plastic, look better, and don’t have the chemicals that plastic has. These eco canteens are $10, have a sports top with carabiner clip, and are made from food grade stainless steel. They also have kid’s sizes for a couple bucks less that my son loves – he’s only two and can’t yet lift a heavy bottle.

I love that REI has really jumped into providing more eco-sensitive clothing and gear, and I really hope it’s working out for them. Take for example these REI Slickrock Shorts. They’re made from organic cotton with a recycled polyester interior lining. They feel great and look great, and they much better for the environment they a standard pair of shorts. And on top of that, they’re only $38. Big congrats to REI!

This beautiful and stylish yoga bag is fair trade certified, as it’s made in India by women artisans out of recycled plastic bags. It looks great and it’s for a great cause!
