eGO Cycle 2 Classic
The eGO Classic is perfect for casual commuters, errand runners and RV users. Built on an anodized aluminum chassis, this energy-efficient electric vehicle delivers a fun, safe, environmentally conscious ride at 20-25 miles an hour.
Monique Pean Jewelry
Jewelry designer Monique Pean works with found remains of walrus, caribou, baleen and 12,000-year-old woolly mammoth ivory. Pean avoids the exploitative mining industry by using 100% recycled gold and conflict-free diamonds. Ivory materials are discovered in melting ice caps, thus drawing attention to global warming. 10% of profits from Monique Pean's Bering Collection go to the Alaska Native Arts Foundation. The money is used to train the next generation of Alaska Native artists and fight to preserve a disappearing culture and natural landscape.
Dahon Speed P8
Biking is the greenest way to go. So give the athletic commuter in your life a Dahon Speed P8. The foldable frame will allow any commuter to ride in style, but stows away for the workday (or on public transit).
Hybrid Clock
Give a retired biycycle another ride, so to speak. Made by Resource Revival from old bicycle parts, this clock will keep time and remind any bike lover of his or her favorite activity.
