Have An Eco Father's Day!

With Father's Day just round the corner (15 June), it's time to start thinking what this special man might wish for. Why not go green this year and show him what he's been missing out on in the world of eco-friendly gifts and gadgets? Whether he loves to kick a football in a park or is a whizz in the kitchen, Nigel's Eco Store has something for the eco dad in your life.

Football fan? If your dad likes a good run around with a football, why not surprise him with an eco friendly ball to kick about. The Greenstar Football is made entirely from FSC certified rubber which makes it well suited for street football as well as a traditional grass pitch. And because this football is Fairtrade, your dad can play safe in the knowledge that the rubber tappers and ball stitchers are paid properly.

Eco fashonista Give your dad a wardrobe boost with a high quality 100% organic cotton T-shirts. The T-shirts mix ethical sourcing with a great design so if your dad likes bold, original and sweatshop-free fashion, surprise him with one of those.

Kitchen express For dads who love to cook, Beanpods make a great gift. He will be able to grow a herb garden from scratch with these elegant mini plant-propagators, enabling him to enjoy a fresh supply of herbs all year round. Available in Parsley, Basil and Chives, these cool little creations are a must-have for any kitchen.

Gadget Lover? Get your dad enjoying windy days. Stylish in appearance but rugged in performance, the HYmini is a small, lightweight and portable wind power generator ideal for charging mobile phones, cameras and most portable electronic devices. It's a must for festivals, outdoor life, camping and in fact anywhere that you go. It'll constantly gather energy from either a light breeze to a strong wind.

Something for a bookworm Get your Dad thinking about how he can make a positive difference to the environment with How To Live A Low Carbon Life. The book is a comprehensive, one-stop reference guide to calculating individual carbon emissions and it lays out clear plans for how individuals can reduce their emissions. It covers all aspects of modern life from transport to home heating, where our food comes from, and holiday travel, and it shows how to conduct a personal lifestyle 'carbon audit'.

Buy a 100% recycled handmade Card Bookmark to go with it.
