We all know Google (or Blackle -- its 'energy-saving' alternative) as the modern day equivalent of a bookshelf of heavy encyclopedias, but it's not exactly the first thing that springs to mind when you think of green shopping. So it comes as quite a surprise to hear that Google's online store has a new green intiative and is selling all sorts of eco-goodies from organic t-shirts to recycled notebooks.
You can even find an organic baby hat, recycled yo-yo set, recycled frisbees (pictured) and, on the US site, hemp hoodies, soy wax candles, pencils made of recycled blue jeans and a hemp footie bag -- all emblazoned with the famous Google logo. Plus instead of plastic polybagging, Google is using recycled wraps and stickers when shipping items.
Which is all pretty impressive -- unlike some of the store's non-green products like the flashing Google badge or pot of 'Google goo'.
