Yep, that&#8217;s right. You read that correctly. A T-shirt made out of Bamboo. Who wudda thunk it? Well, a sustainable company who is also socially responsible in helping others, called Bamboomerangs, thunk it, they did!
I stumbled across this company and their website via mutual Twitter friends, and am really impressed with their philosophies and their product. They offer a T-Shirt made out of 70% real Bamboo and the remaining is made out of 30% organic cotton. Isn&#8217;t that the coolest??!!
You&#8217;ve got to go to their website and read the Bamboo ...]]></description>

<div>Yep, that&#8217;s right. You read that correctly. A T-shirt made out of Bamboo. Who wudda thunk it? Well, a sustainable company who is also socially responsible in helping others, called <a href="http://bamboomerangs.com/Home_Page.php">Bamboomerangs</a>, thunk it, they did!</p>
<p>I stumbled across this company and their website via mutual <a href="http://www.twitter.com/asklizfirst">Twitter</a> friends, and am really impressed with their philosophies and their product. They offer a <a href="http://shop.bamboomerangs.com/main.sc">T-Shirt</a> made out of 70% real Bamboo and the remaining is made out of 30% organic cotton. Isn&#8217;t that the coolest??!!</p>
<p>You&#8217;ve got to go to their website and read the <a href="http://bamboomerangs.com/About_Us.php">Bamboo Facts</a>. Like, did you know that a Bamboo grove releases 35% more oxygen than the same size stand of trees? Please go to their site for more interesting info.</p>
<p>The folks at Bamboomerangs also have a <a href="http://bamboomerangs.com/Home_Page.php">&#8220;One for One&#8221;</a> policy. For every Bamboo shirt they sell, they give one away to someone in need. <span style="color:#990000;"><strong><em>WOW</em></strong></span>, that just so impresses me!</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve placed my order for my first &#8220;sustainable&#8221; Bamboo T-shirt and look forward to more purchases in the near future. The Bamboomerangs folks say that the shirts run one size small, so I&#8217;m going to get that size thing straight, before ordering more.</p>
<p>Please be sure to check out their <a href="http://bamboomerangs.com/Home_Page.php">Website</a>, share it with your friends, and let us know how you like their site and their product.

While at her blog, please check out the very cute Eco Chic T&#8217;s that she offers.
Another great book that I&#8217;ve previously mentioned in this blog, is Green Goes With Everything by Sloan Barnett. A New York Times Best Seller, the book has some easy suggestions and is very educational.
