"Each year, nearly 1.5 million barrels of oil are used to make plastic water bottles. Most of those bottles end up in our landfills, in our oceans, littering our sidewalks."

With stats like that, the fact that these water-filtering bottles are so slick is superfluous. http://www.los-list.com/blog/eco-friendlies-karim-rashid-bobble/feed/ 8 http://www.los-list.com/blog/t-shirt-tuesdays-out-of-print/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/t-shirt-tuesdays-out-of-print/#comments Wed, 24 Nov 2010 00:23:07 +0000 Lo Martin http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=10056

We've been big fans of the Out of Print tee series ever since we first stumbled upon the site. Then, about a month ago we saw this book design gem over on Mikey Burton's Flickr stream. Thus, when we saw that Out of Print and Mikey hooked up to make the tees above, well, it was like a fairy godmother had read our diary! http://www.los-list.com/blog/t-shirt-tuesdays-out-of-print/feed/ 7 http://www.los-list.com/blog/do-goodism-europ-africa-deco/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/do-goodism-europ-africa-deco/#comments Thu, 19 Aug 2010 13:24:15 +0000 Lo Martin http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=7825

While perusing the child-centric wares of one of my favorite Tel Aviv shops, Carousella, I came across these oversized baskets by Franco-Senegalese company Europ'Africa Deco... http://www.los-list.com/blog/do-goodism-europ-africa-deco/feed/ 18 http://www.los-list.com/blog/eco-friendlies-the-nonlife-zoo/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/eco-friendlies-the-nonlife-zoo/#comments Sat, 17 Jul 2010 18:26:09 +0000 Lo Martin http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=7219

Well, it's old news that we're killing the planet and along with it, many of these adorable fuzzy creatures! Need some crappy stats to scare you into action? The Nonlife Zoo's mission statement is chock full of them. How about this doozy: "more than one kind of species vanishes from earth daily"... http://www.los-list.com/blog/eco-friendlies-the-nonlife-zoo/feed/ 13 http://www.los-list.com/blog/do-goodism-adopt-a-sloth/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/do-goodism-adopt-a-sloth/#comments Mon, 12 Jul 2010 04:02:42 +0000 Jerome Luc Martin http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=7042

Despite all our efforts here at Lo’s List to bring you the best of art, design and commerce on the internet, there should be little doubt of what the world-wide-web, regretably, is really for: the sharing of sneezing pandas, short-sighted manatees and, now, these adorable, tottering baby sloths. Shot at the Aviarios Sloth Sanctuary in Costa Rica, this video features our Folivoran friends doing what they do best: sleeping, yawning, falling over, eating, sleeping, hanging from stuff while asleep, eating stuff while apparently asleep, scratching their butts and sleeping. No other creature that we know of has evolved quite this degree of somnambulatory excellence. http://www.los-list.com/blog/do-goodism-adopt-a-sloth/feed/ 10 http://www.los-list.com/blog/do-goodism-the-working-proof/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/do-goodism-the-working-proof/#comments Thu, 11 Feb 2010 23:17:01 +0000 Lo Martin http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=2767

OSoo's Armadillo Giclee Print for Doctors Without Borders

In these (still?!) economically unsure times, we can easily forget the hard-working non-profits out there striving to make our world a little better. Therefore, it's a joy to find projects that find intelligent ways to raise funds for good and provide perks to those doing the giving. Enter The Working Proof. The concept is simple: a gallery full of limited edition prints from which 15% of proceeds go to a charity of the artist's choice. http://www.los-list.com/blog/do-goodism-the-working-proof/feed/ 13 http://www.los-list.com/blog/found-at-etsy-aid-for-haiti/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/found-at-etsy-aid-for-haiti/#comments Wed, 20 Jan 2010 20:07:05 +0000 Lo Martin http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=3025 http://www.los-list.com/blog/found-at-etsy-aid-for-haiti/feed/ 3 http://www.los-list.com/blog/gift-guide-top-ten-do-goodism/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/gift-guide-top-ten-do-goodism/#comments Thu, 17 Dec 2009 22:18:20 +0000 Lo Martin http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=2015

With Thanksgiving just a hop and a skip away, it's the perfect time to put down your Mont Blanc, your Magic Mouse, your Wii controller, your Jamba Juice, whatever, and take a moment to think: what can I give back? http://www.los-list.com/blog/the-girl-effect/feed/ 18 http://www.los-list.com/blog/insurgents-wilderness-gruppo/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/insurgents-wilderness-gruppo/#comments Tue, 22 Sep 2009 00:34:38 +0000 Lo Martin http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=238

A tree-hugging environmentalist toy designer who loves motorcycles, green science and his Pitbull mutt Osa? Found one!! Brussels-born Patrick York Ma, who now stomps around the cities and forests of NoCal's Bay Area, clearly can't sit still... http://www.los-list.com/blog/insurgents-wilderness-gruppo/feed/ 66
