Lauren Bush Saves The Planet
Happy Earth Day! For so long we’ve taken our planet for granted. Politicians yelled at us and tried to pass laws, but nothing got our attention. Until the fashion world (plus Al Gore and Bono) made some noise. Suddenly, we have eco-clothes, eco-bags and even cute eco-shoes (thank you, Natalie Portman). But one of the first celebrities (semi-celebrities, um, semilebrities?) to really be vocal on the eco-friendly front was the President’s niece, model Lauren Bush. Lauren designed these environmentally friendly FEED bags with FEED Projects to help benefit the United Nations World Food Program. The idea behind it is to not only fight World hunger, but also an overall commitment to the environment and to safe and healthy working conditions around the World. Ok, so Lauren is really going for it with her bag.
But even me, in my infinite laissez-faire-ness can work towards this eco-happy goal of saving the Earth. My environmentally friendly Anya Hindmarch bag saves me from wasting plastic bags at the market. It’s amazing when even fashion is on board with important politics. Now if only our government would catch on then the Earth would stand a chance!
