Happy Earth Day 2011!

I know that 20 years ago I wasn't thinking too much about long showers, recycling, food miles, organic produce, checking labels for palm oil, or buying carbon credits to offset plane flights.

What a long way we have come. It's part of our every day. So it's nice to spend one day a year to celebrate our conscious effort towards reducing waste and living a bit more harmoniously with our environment.

To mark this Earth Day, here are a few of my favourite posts from the last 12 months featuring Australian design-savvy, eco-friendly products and practices. Enjoy!
