See Ya CFLs:

Recycle used CFLs at your local Home Depot, IKEA or check Earth911.org for drop-off locations in your zip code. If your state permits you to put used or broken CFLs in the garbage, seal the bulb in two plastic bags and put it in the outside trash. Don't incinerate, as CFLs contain a small amount of toxic mercury, an average of about 5 milligrams, which would get released into the air.

Haver Pouch

Why It's Good:

This leather pouch has a classically rugged sensibility that evokes Hemingway and a certain sexy wanderlust. Comes in wardrobe-versatile colors like black, tan, green, blue, and grey.

Why It's Green:

Entermodal designs with next-generation use in mind: minimalist construction allows for easy disassembly, leaving a flat piece of leather that can be made into something else (repurposing is one of the greenest things you can do!). The leather has been tanned using sustainably harvested, natural vegetable dyes (other hides are tanned using formaldehydes and heavy metals like chromium; the EPA's notorious Superfund list of toxic cleanup sites is riddled with tanneries). In addition, all metal hardware (buckles, rivets, zips, etc.) is made of non-plated, locally sourced recycled aluminum, and the threads and fabrics are organic cotton.
