  Whether you're shopping for your employees or organization members or buying gifts for family and friends, consider purchasing ecology-friendly gifts that your recipients can enjoy, while knowing that they're helping to preserve the environment. Whether you're searching for gifts that can be used at home or at the office, there are many ecology-friendly gifts to choose from and most can be purchased wholesale.
  
  

Soy Candles

• Soy candles are not only environmentally friendly, but can also be used to decorate your gift recipient's home or office. Soy candles release less smoke than regular candles and don't produce large amounts of unattractive soot around containers like paraffin candles. They burn longer and are less likely to adversely affect people with allergies or breathing problems. They are offered in a wide variety colors, so they can be coordinated to match your recipient's décor.
  
  

Organic Coffee and Tea

• For a hot beverage drinker, fair-trade, organic tea, hot chocolate and coffee is available in an assortment of brands and flavors. These items can easily be purchased wholesale.
  
  

Stainless Steel Water Bottles

• Stainless steel water bottles are an ecology-friendly gift that not only save money and reduce overall waste, but are also safer when compared to plastic water bottles. Stainless steel water bottles come in a variety of colors, designs and sizes. They are suitable for hikers, moms on-the-go, business professionals, students and even children.
  
  

Tote Bags

• Whether shopping at a local farmer's market, toting baby supplies, going to class or picking up groceries from the supermarket, tote bags provide a reusable solution for people who need to transport items. More eco-friendly than plastic and paper bags, reusable tote bags have even become a fashion accessory, as wearers promote reducing their carbon footprint and giving back to the environment. The tote bags, available in a variety of styles and shapes, can be customized to fit the personality of the recipient. Many are made using eco-friendly fabrics like organic cotton, hemp and jute.
  
  

Recycled Greeting Cards

• If you want to give the gift of words, buy eco-friendly greeting cards from your local book or stationary stores. Create your own cards at home, using old magazines, paper bags, greeting cards, hemp, eco-friendly stamps and ink, and colored pencils.
