Pact'S Eco-Friendly Underwear Will Result in More Trees
Katherinev123 — April 24, 2010 — Eco
A line of organic, eco-friendly underwear has been created by architect David Adjaye for PACT, an online apparel retailer that has partnered with Kenyan tree-planting organization Green Belt Movement.
For each pair of eco-friendly underwear sold, PACT and Green Belt Movement will plant 20 trees in Africa. All proceeds of the eco-friendly underwear during Earth Week will go towards the tree-planting goal of 10,000 trees.
Adjaye's eco-friendly underwear design features the special Green Belt print--fig leaves with yellow stems that mimic the shape of the continent of Africa.
