water polo gear
Ever play underwater hockey?

Our scuba club use to for exercise with a neutral ball filled with water that didn’t sink or float. Put a garbage can at each side of deep end with a guy in scuba gear and all the players wear mask/fins/&snorkels. Get ball into can…rip off oponents mask, or just stand on their suit like water polo. animals rule!!!

There is an actual game called underwater hockey. They use a puck that stays at the bottom and the sticks kind of look like short shuffle board sticks. Was in a beer commercial with them playing it about 25 years ago. I’m sure LITY remembers it.

Going-Green and Getting Trendy with Eco-Friendly Apparel

One of the easiest ways to go-green is with your wardrobe. Everyone needs clothing so when you’re already out and about shopping; why not just choose the organic alternatives. Likewise, when it comes to dressing your employees’ eco-friendly apparel is the way to go. As businesses turn to all organic promotional apparel, the options of eco friendly clothing flourishes in retail stores everywhere. Now let’s take a look into the shift of gears in the promotional and retail worlds for environmentally friendly clothing.

Eco-Friendly Apparel is good for the environment.

California provides roughly 13% of the United States cotton each year and in a study done in 2005, over 5.8 million pounds of chemicals were used on the golden states farms. These chemicals pose a threat to major bodies of water and eco-systems when they are carried off by run-off rain water. At the same time the pesticides used to keep insects and animals away from the cotton crops are main factors in the greenhouse gas effect.  

Organic clothing doesn’t need chemicals to be made. In fact, buying four organic shirts saves about a pound of chemicals from entering the earth. That means if you chose to reward your 72 employees with stylish organic custom polos, you’d be saving the earth from almost 20 pounds of chemical abuse. All of this goes without saying that organic clothing also reduces waste because it breaks down naturally. For these reasons alone, it’s clear why retail stores are making eco-friendly apparel mainstream.

Eco-Friendly Apparel is cost effective.

Maeny people are deterred from organic clothing because of the daunting price tag. But just like with any shopping, you’ve got to scout out deals. Wal-Mart offers an eco-friendly t-shirt for only three bucks. Similarly, a culinary school could order new students custom non-woven aprons for as low as $1.95 each. Putting thrifty sales aside, organic clothing costs more for you because it costs more for the manufacturer. However, as eco-friendly clothing becomes more widely accepted, the market will grow and sales will improve as prices drop. Eventually, many people will adopt eco-friendly custom apparel as the norm for its long lasting abilities and environmentally sound production. 

Environmentally Friendly apparel is trendy.

As materialistic as it may be, customers care about the latest in trends. What are the Hollywood elites wearing? How can I get my hands on that hand bag? These are questions that are asked everyday, and now as celebrities boast about their awesome green clothing and accessories, eco-friendly apparel is becoming mainstream.

All of the sudden a silk kimono takes the back seat to a custom bamboo robe and a star chooses the H&M organic clothing line over the latest one of a kind bejeweled dress. Nike and Wal-Mart join H&M as some of the top 10 worldwide brands selling organic cotton lines. In the future, many more hot names in fashion will be turning to eco-friendly alternatives to show stopping looks. By the beginning of 2010 these going-green company’s expect 33% of their products to be made of eco-friendly organic cotton.

With trend setters turning to eco-friendly apparel, the price gap growing thinner and a constant drop of harmful chemicals entering the atmosphere, going-green with your wardrobe seems widely attractive. Models are strutting their stuff down the run way and giving eco-friendly a whole new make over while organic farmers work to harvest cotton in the most sustainable ways possible. Likewise, traveling business executives are looking their finest in organic custom polos and schools across the world are arming students with cool promotional eco-friendly tees. So join the revolution and make a statement today by greenifying your wardrobe.

Queensryche’s follow-up to the double-platinum Empire is something of an acquired taste, but it’s well worth the effort. There’s considerable variety here; the heavy progressive-rock of “I Am I” and the ballad “Bridge” were hit singles, but there’s also the funk-inflected “Disconnected”, the edgy, spooky “Lady Jane”, and the piano-and-vocals “Someone Else?”. The title track is probably the stronge…
