Eco-Friendly Find: Jesse Danger
Pure silver jewelry does not necessarily bring the most earth conscious images to mind- you may think of the giant open-pit mines and their toxic drainage or the exploitation of the mine workers. But Jesse Danger creates silver jewelry that is earth friendly too. How can that be? He creates his goods out of 100% recycled Argentium silver. No raw materials wasted there. He also donates 5% of his profits to Earthworks, a nonprofit group that regulates fair trade mining worldwide and is working on mining reform. He even packages his orders up in a box using 100% recycled and sustainable materials. Not too shabby. Oh, and did I mention, his jewelry designs are absolutely lovely?










Wow, thats really cool. I never would have thought of silver as being recycled. It's awesome that someone out there is reusing it!
