friendly criticism: I didnt really get the sense that you guys had tried out organic cosmetics or organic clothing lines ... so it sounded more like you were just listing sources, which anybody can do by googling. Where's the real reporting?

My fav eco line is Loomstate. It isn't the cheapest, but its not too bad and Barney's always has loads of it at their quarterly sales. I think their denim is a bit too loose ( I need some spandex!) since it is natural but I love their tanks and hoodies and long sleeve ts. 

I also loved Rogan's eco friendly line for target last year. I still wear some of those pieces.

I look forward to that Payless line, it sounds awesome!

Kim is so right. The livestock industry is absolutely horrific with regards to its environmental impact and also the treatment of the animals. The only skin I want to be in is my own!

Wearing organic/natural fibers doesn't really have anything to do with being eco-friendly.  I mean, sure, they're ORGANIC, but...it's clothing?  Unless you're burying them after you wear them it doesn't really matter.

What matter is what you do with them once you're sick of them!

Give to Goodwill and the Salvation Army. Swap clothes with friends.  Don't be afraid to wear last season! Or last last last season...

I can understand the lack of animal cruelty when it comes to the leather thing, but that's really a matter of personal preference.  Nothing more organic that leather, you know. Besides....dirt.

Being "GREEN" isn't about what you wear or what you eat.  That's just being healthy/vegan/organic.  Whatever you want to call it.  Being "green" is about what you're doing to actually reduce your wastefulness.  Julia's comment about not showering is closer to the truth!

Use canvas bags when shopping [as mentioned above], use less water/get a Pur filter and a reusable water bottle instead of drinking plastic bottle after plastic bottle of water, RECYCLE...

I dunno.
This seemed kind of empty and lacking fact.

Love,
Kate

matt and nat stuff is incredibly cute, but also very pricy for synthetics.  my best friend bought a bag not knowing it was vegan... when she found out she was like, "I paid a 0 for PLEATHER?" 

while i appreciating clothing that has a low environmental impact, i care more about the exploitation of laborers.  my first consideration in shopping is fair working conditions for the people who made the clothing, and second is the "green" consideration. it's sometimes tricky to find clothing lines that value both, but with the current public intrest in the issue, hopefully it will be more and more common. 

also: thrifting and vintage shopping, ladies! reusing/ recycling? it's a guarantee that your "footprint" will be small. plus, in this economy, you can't find better deals. it might take a little creativity and some sewing machine know-how, but i love waking up in the morning to a closet full of one-of-a-kind pieces that no one else in my city has.

GREAT work, Mary---you're getting to be quite polished and the real standout in these TMI episodes...methinks that haircut gave you a whole new boost of confidence!
;-)
The main "green" thing I'm doing now is keeping canvas bags in my car trunk so that I'll be ready to grab some groceries in them at any time.
Dunno if I could ever rock any "green" fashions though---I love my gaudy polyesters too much...although I suppose thrift store shopping and wearing vintage could be considered "green", right? Recycle those clothes, folks!

mat and nat are a vegan handbag company that also makes most of their lines from recycled fabrics and recycled bottles.  kind of pricey, but worth it.  i've seen these bags in person and never would have thought they were made from plastic bottles.

http://www.edunonline.com/about2.aspx
edun is the brainchild of ali hewson and bono, also pricey but socially conscious and largely organic.  this is one pretty popular, i mean it's even sold at barney's, i'm surprised it was left out.

http://www.lushusa.com/about/
natural cosmetics from lush are socially conscious, fresh, organic, and cruelty free.

also, treehugger.com has a section of their website devoted just to fashion and beauty, you can find plenty of information there:

i appreciate the note on payless's new line, but overall i feel like you guys could have taken this episode to new heights with some extra research.  "going green" seemed more like a trend that you had to talk about for three minutes than something you guys are actually invested in, and that's okay, but maybe you should do a follow up on this episode later when you have given it more thought.
