Hello Make Noise MembersThis edition of Make Noise brings you two ingenious ventures from fellow MN members and a little update from me about Make Hay now that we've turned 3 years old. First of all, one of my favourite topics, bags, bags, bags! And these ones are special. Plus one of our very good friends Pascal Gillon tells us how he can help to make your dreams come true...
Bags of Change
Bags of Change are for anyone who hates plastic bags and wants style with their ethics. They produce great bags - and when you buy one you get a free email newsletter telling you about all the independent traders in your areas who sell local, fairtrade and organic produce. What's more when you take the bag to their shops you get discounts! For retailers it is a great way of reaching the right kind of people and of expanding their customer base. The current bag is made from an organic hemp-cotton mix. The cotton is Control Union approved and the hemp is farmed semi-wild on small family farms. (Hemp is an environmentally positive crop, enriching the soil as it grows.) The bag buttons are made from coconut shells. All the processing of the bag is low impact and the fabric, dyes and prints are fully biodegradable. The bags are sea freighted to the UK to minimise their carbon footprint. And they're beautiful. For the whole story see www.bagsofchange.co.uk
