27 Socially Conscious Sunglasses

From Custom Charity Bamboo Shades to Eco-Conscious Wooden Frams

— December 24, 2012 — Eco
The next time you go out to the mall to pick up a pair of shades, replace those old plastic lenses with a pair of socially conscious sunglasses.

There are many societal issues plaguing the Earth, starting with people not having access to eye care to natural disasters, heavy pollution and the depletion of forested areas. To ensure that you are helping rather than adding to certain burdens, it's time to think about the items you're buying. If you invest in a pair of wooden sunglasses from Solo Eyewear for instance, you're purchasing shades that use sustainable bamboo wood as their main resource. As well as, for every purchase money is put towards eye surgery for a person in need.

Other socially conscious sunglasses recycle old objects like skateboards to lessen a city's overall waste production.
