Obviously the most eco-friendly way to go is to let your facial hair grow wild. That’s not an option for most people though—hippie beards tend not to go over well in most offices. Disposable razors won’t contribute to waist of electricity, but their disposability still adds unnecessary global waste. For those who want to go electric, the new Razor from Braun’s Energy-Star line looks like the best option.
Proctor & Gamble's Braun division has been touting its line of Energy Star-certified shaver chargers—a world's first.
The Smart Plugs use 64 percent less energy than standard shavers and, according to the company, will save over 12 million pounds of carbon dioxide emissions per year, or the equivalent of removing 1,073 cars from the road, planting 1,526 acres of forest, or lighting 5,861 homes for a year.
