Over a million iPhone 4 cell phones were sold on launch week from Apple, and many of those consumers who snagged the coveted cell, prefer to protect the mobile in an eco friendly way.

1. Fabric – ditch the rubber or plastic and instead choose a sustainable material such as a cloth case made of organic cotton, hemp, straw, bamboo, jute or canvas. These fabrics are all durable, light, flexible and when designed properly can look just as good (if not better) than the non eco friendly options available. Begin your search on Google for an eco friendly iphone 4 case and you might be pleasantly surprised at what you find.

2. Handmade – aside from the fabric or material a case is made of, another way to be more environmentally friendly is via the method of production. Handmade is usually always more lighter on the planet than heavy commercial machinery and output. Visit sites like Esty.com that specialize in handmade goods, including cases and covers for the iPhone 4.

3. Don’t Use Leather – securing cow hide is one of the worst practices on Earth, literally. With so many other wonderful, durable and high quality materials out there, it’s an absolute shame how some can only fathom leather as THE material of choice when it comes to certain fashion goods. Don’t get hung up on “old school” traditions, think outside the box and give other materials a try. Leather is wasteful in any and every way imaginable, let’s abolish this fabric once and for all.

4. Buy Local – is there a local cell phone shop in your town or even neighborhood? If so, give them a visit and see what they have on offer, as purchasing your cell phone accessory locally will save on transport and shipping emissions. Give them a try and score

5. Made in the USA – if you’re preferred iPhone 4 case or cover is made in China or other far off land, then it could very well not be eco friendly. Another point? The facility where the case is made could be a major manufacturing plant, it could use workers who are not paid a fair wage, and or the materials used could be heavy on the planet. If the accessory is made in the USA this at the very least means it didn’t travel a gazillion miles to get to you.

Keep in mind the five tips mentioned above and you’ll be on your way to a more eco friendly way of sustaining and protecting your beloved iPhone 4.

Eco friendly products are goods and services that were manufactured with the idea that the process of producing and distributing them will not have a negative impact to the environment. Increasing awareness and concern for the environment has been affecting a lot of industries, with the “green” movement and ideals seeping into the collective consciousness of the buying public. There are many people who want to make a contribution, no matter how small, to protect the environment, which is actually a very good thing.

As a result of the public’s efforts to be more environmentally friendly, Eco friendly products can now be found everywhere from online stores to actual stores at the mall. To be called eco friendly, a product, such as clothes and accessories, must be made up of materials that were created and manufactured from organic materials. For example, cotton is the most predominantly used material for clothing. When growing cotton, the farmers sometimes used pesticides to protect the quality of the cotton. For eco friendly purposes, this has to be done away with. Pesticides should not be used in the production of cotton. The large-scale production and use of materials such as rayon has been a leading cause of environmental problems like deforestation. In keeping with the efforts of trying to maintain the ecological balance, several alternatives are being pursued to protect the environment. Chemicals, such as dye used for coloring the fabric, should also be scrapped. These chemicals are harmful to the environment and can also be detrimental to people’s health. If the fabrics and textiles made for manufacturing clothes can be produced without dyeing, thus eliminating the use of harmful chemicals, then it will be much better for the environment and the public. Moreover, the fabric should also be made to be more long lasting. If the clothes easily become old and worn out, disposing them can be an environmentally problematic option because these materials do not decompose easily. They will keep filling up garbage dumps and contribute to pollution and waste. Therefore, Eco friendly products must be made of strong and renewable materials. Recycling is also a considerable option. Clothes can either be made from recyclable plastic bottles and reusable fabrics. The above-mentioned processes may be small things compared to the wide-scale environmental issues but the tiniest things can have a huge impact if this is to be taken seriously. Fortunately, although the eco friendly production of cloth products and other accessories is still relatively new, it already has gained much popularity that even the most famous designers and fashion world’s who’s who are increasingly being swayed into promoting and supporting the go green movement.

However, protecting the environment is not the only objective of eco friendly campaigns. They also protect the rights of individuals for fair trade. Eco friendly products, besides being in most part organic, must also come from manufacturers that provide their workers with genuinely fair and decent working environment. They must be working in comfortable conditions and are being paid fair wages according to their hard work.
