Here are some options that I found for safer, less-toxic iPhone cases: Kroma cases are BPA-free, BPS-free, lead-free, phthalate-free and constructed of food-grade materials. Constructed in the Netherlands, Miniot’s iWood case is constructed from a single block of real wood from well-managed forests. They are somewhat delicate because they are constructed of solid wood, but Carved offers a full refund within 30 days of purchase and a 50% refund within 60 days if they cannot repair the damage.
With Mother’s Day only a week away, I thought I would post a list of gift ideas for moms who love nature and the outdoors.

When you certify, she receives a certificate, a one-year membership to NWF and a one-year subscription to National Wildlife magazine, and the option to purchase a garden sign announcing that her yard is a Certified Wildlife Habitat.

In order to brew a toxin-free cup of coffee, choose organic, fair-trade coffee grounds and brew them in a coffeemaker that is made entirely of glass and/or stainless steel. Several cold brew makers on the market contain no plastic at all; they are constructed of glass carafes with stainless steel filters. You get the best cup of coffee if you choose a glass coffee maker like the SterlingPro with a stainless steel press and no plastic parts. And since aluminum is a metal of some concern, I prefer a stainless steel version such as the VonChef 6-cup Stovetop Espresso Maker.
