Season 2 Episode 7

The New Eco-Retailers

images.jpglistennow.gifAs lazy environmentalists we want it to be super easy to access the best of eco-friendly and socially responsible products. We want stores to weed out poorly designed and poorly made products. We want them to vet suppliers to ensure that products are indeed better for the planet. We simply don't have the time to do it ourselves.

The new eco-retailers "get it" and are leveraging design and technology to bring consumers outstanding shopping experiences. Joining Josh to discuss new developments in eco-retail are George Polisner, founder of web shopping portal Alonovo.com, Aysia Wright, founder of the Portland, Oregon-based eco-fashion boutique The Green Loop, and Jim Kloiber, co-founder of TwoKH, an upscale eco-home store in New York City.

"This week’s episode of The Lazy Environmentalist, a radio show (also podcasted) about ecology and shopping, has a Portland, Oregon small business owner as one of it’s guests...Portland has a robust market for fair-trade and ecologically responsible products; this is just part of the work being done throughout the North West to create a new and more just economy and world."
