Shop for Green ‘Back To School Supplies’!


Just a couple of years before, shopping for back to school supplies online was not as popular as it is today. These days, buying school supplies online is the regular occurrence among teachers and parents from all over the country. Mostly, teachers shop for teacher school supplies online. 

This year while shopping back to school supplies online, how about shopping for eco-friendly school supplies? Sounds like a great idea, isn’t it? Today's new green classroom supplies are not only high on style and usability, but also are increasingly affordable.


  • Paper products: These days, a wide range of recycled paper and notebooks is becoming increasingly available, at competitive prices. Check out recycled filler paper and recycled paper notebooks as well as catalog of beautiful and kid-friendly notebooks at Jam Paper and Envelope. You can try using rescued paper notebooks that are cute and ultra-hip and are made from discarded paper that is folded to expose its white backsides. Also, you should avoid using binders and other supplies made with PVC, because it is extremely toxic to make that result in the release of potent toxins.


  • Writing utensils: If you are buying eco-friendly school supplies, so the idea to get your kids eco-friendly pencils can be a great option to go for. Shop for eco-friendly pencils, which are made from recycled newspaper and cardboard. You can also equip your little one's hand with biodegradable pens that are made from cornstarch or recycled paper.
  • Other supplies: There is a variety of environment friendly school supplies available online, one of them includes leather bound journals. Buy a leather bound journal made from hand-carved wood and bound with vegetable tanned leather. The pages inside these journals are made of 100% recycled cotton paper.


Buying eco-friendly back to school supplies, will not only save our forest resources and energy, but also will help your kids understand the importance of the same.
