Buy Natural. A chain of stores that sell Merchandise made from re-cycled and organically grown material. This would reduce the carbon footprint.
Create grass root awareness through these, creating a sense of responsibility of the individual towards the environment.
Going Green does not only mean good for Nature. Going back to traditional lifestyles makes more sense.
We do not need to re-invent the wheel to go green, but to follow the Time tested techniques of Ancient Civilizations
I would like to be a catalyst to start a chain of stores that sell products , Apparel and Home furnishing, with natural dyes, toys that are made with natural material, and sell only environment friendly merchandise

Instead of employing the small, colorful square app interface that is now considered a trademark element of modern smartphones, Microsoft is hoping to blaze a new trail. fire helmets
This would reduce the carbon footprint. implanon

Take charge. Invest. It is not only your future
that is at stake.
wonderful idea, though not new, but making it a grassroot movement is a brilliant one, wishing you all the best
Good Idea Like to be a part of it...
thank you ..hope it works
great ideas. hope it'll be truth soon.
thank you Jenny
Nice. But the word "chain" has me worried. What about many locally-owned and operated, independent stores? This, to me, seems more traditional than many of the chain stores that we see today.
Shilpa would be glad to associate with you, We are actively promoting Eco Friendly products in Bangalore like paper bags, organic cotton, wet waste composting for houses and corporates, looking at associating with similar people, please feel free to mail / call me to take this forward. Would love to share all the details required in saving the environment in leaving a Better World Behind.
Request are welcome

Dear Vinay thank you very much for your comments
Can you please send me an e-mail on shilpamspillai@gmal.com .I would like to get in touch with you
Hi,
It's write in your bio that you work in textile since several years already.
Are you the owner of Tamanna the Import/Export company ?
http://www.tradeindia.com/Seller-1579823-1914091-823-BRANDING/Buying-Age...
It look you have already your shop networks and products to sell since several years. What this project is different with your current activity ?
Yes, there should be more of these shops and that is the only way to bring down the so called 'fab'oulous india pricings!!!
We neednt have to pay a bomb like the visitors!!!
I'm so glad people finally realized the importance of these stores. I love my flowers and all my trees I planted in my garden. I would really love to send you some pictures. And that's why I chose to be eco-friendly, and to buy only such things, that help the environment.
Thinking and acting green are now more important than ever because of the extent of pollution. Recycling is always a good thing but things must be changed from the manufacturer, to the store to the consumer. It's great that there are green stores, I even picked up a gift basket from one, but there are only a few. When there will be a lot more, producers will be obligated to make environmentally friendly products.
My idea can help your customers identify how these products and stores are better than contemporary retail outlets.
Tell me if you're interested in sharing information about the environmental benefits of your products. Furthermore, can you please tell me if these products are available worldwide or if they can be shipped internationally?
Cheers,
ilia
Wish I have the luxury of time to consider using the benefits these site can offer.....

I am so happy to see how far along eco friendly items have come over the last 20 yrs. It is really nice seeing green items in all the big stores that never offered this choice years ago.
Hopefully all our household items and apparel become more closer to nature in the future also.
