Answer 1

I was looking for eco friendly school supplies in May for my sons Earth Club. I went to the 3 major office supply stores in my area, Office Max, Office Depot, and Staples. I also checked Target and Walmart.

The best selection was at Office Max, they had several store brands made of recycled content and they have partnered with Terracycle. Terracycle has pens, pencils, markers and mechanical pencils made of recycled material, they have recycled binders and pencil holders made from juice bags, like Capri sun.

The other 2 office supply stores had very limited supplies.

Target seemed to have a couple full lines of ecofriendly school supplies, look for the Greenroom brand. They had everything from spiral notebooks, binders, file folders, and dividers. These were a little more youth oriented, very colorful.

Walmart had a few items, I hope they have more now.

You can also get recycled post it's, index cards, and plastic rulers.

Many suppliers are trying to look ecofriendly when they aren't, so look for the chasing arrows.

Answer 6

Why not internet stores?  That's where I get all my stationery, such as pencil cases made from recycled tyres which are great and really durable, and note books made from recycled paper and the outside is made from recycled juice cartons.  I've never come across this kind of stuff in mainstream high street shops, but they are easy to find on-line.  Why don't you at least do a search on-line and see what it comes up with. Good luck in your search

Nobody can tell the difference. It's only to make s****. left wing elitists feel good.
