With so many different actions we can do to lessen our impact, EcoMinders can help us remember those various things. Ecominders are easy-to-use, removable and reusable stickers with three lines designed especially for home, school & kids and office use. Printed by a leading sustainable printing company and using eco-friendly inks and papers, a portion of profits also goes back to 1% for the Planet.
Though my kids are really good about placing items in the recycle bin and turning off the water when they brush their teeth, the lights seem to be off in their heads sometimes when leaving the room and well…turning off the lights so the “Grip it & flip it” sticker was especially useful to place above our switches.
I gave my husband the office pack to take to work to include “Be more green turn off your machine” and the “Save a tree use less of me!” for the bathroom stalls. That one obviously got some attention there.
Great idea by founder, Allison Shaewitz, who claims a “CFL light bulb” went on in her head after the birth of her first child. Concerned about all aspects of his new world, she felt that she needed to do everything possible to make sure it stayed in the best shape possible for him and future generations. Thus the birth of Ecominders to help us all, young or old, to incorporate the best choice possible. Ecominders makes it easy for everyone to Stick to Saving the Planet!

What a great and useful product! Kudos to Allison for bringing her idea to life to remind us to help our planet.
Ecominders, we could use those in our household! As cognizant as we try to be about things like letting the water run when we are washing pans to leaving a light on when the room is awash with natural light, we do sometimes forget so I think the Ecominders would be a nice reminder.
