The Green List on Newsstands Now
TreeHugger teamed up with domino, a home style magazine, to present The Green List.
The cover feature celebrates 125 companies which have transformed home interiors to integrate green design and style.
The list includes earth friendly furniture, fabrics, wall coverings, rugs, and a spotlight on a few people, including TreeHugger's Graham Hill.
The criteria:
Products had to be made from materials that are rapidly renewable (such as fast-growing bamboo), responsibly grown (wood from a socially and environmentally managed forest, for example), reusable (can be recycled after use) and/or biodegradable (able to be safely returned to the soil). Bonus points were given for durability (well-built things that won't have to be replaced frequently). No off-gassing (materials and finishes that can pollute the air inside your home) was allowed. We embraced relativity (a Prius may be better than a fuel-gulping SUV, but it's still pretty dirty compared to a totally electric car or, for that matter, a bicycle) and gave gold stars for good manufacturing practices (such as wind-powered factories and fair labor conditions). And last but not least, we decided that vintage counts!
