Run Hard but Leave a Small Carbon Footprint
Are your gym socks getting greener,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]? Then it might be time to toss them in the wash,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Or maybe just maybe they're greener because they are part of the burgeoning environmentallyconscious athletic gear industry.
Nike has thrown its hat (made with hitech fibers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], no doubt) into the eco ring. The Oregonbased athletic equipment and apparel giant has committed to seeing that all its new, domesticallydeveloped, topselling equipment meet the company's most stringent Considered Design environmental standards by 2020. Nike's Considered Design initiative promises to move the company increasingly towards closed loop production where all waste is essentially put to use.
Brooks another big name in the athletic shoe business has received positive notices for its Green Silence footwear. The company claims the shoe has the first biodegradable midsole in running shoe history. Other materials found in the shoe are either biodegradable,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], recycled and/or nontoxic. Additionally, the shoe is purported to be made of half the parts of comparable shoes, requiring less petroleum and energy during production,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and sold in (naturally enough) recycled packaging.
Adidas,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], New Balance, and Reebook offer up information about their environmentally responsible practices as well. Just because our shoe sizes are getting larger doesn't mean our carbon footprint can't start shrinking.
