Did you know that one child can generate 67 lbs of lunchtime waste per school year? And if that's the case, imagine what an adult can create in a full work year.

In the spirit of everyone doing their part, we've sourced an amazing product from Vancouver-based online shopping site: EcoConvenience.ca

Toss out your baggies, plastic wrap and foil. Food Kozy Wrappers from Kids Konserve are a reusable alternative perfect for wrapping sandwiches, bagels, tortillas, meat and cheese slices, apple slices or whatever food you take in your lunch. They're also great to use at home to wrap foods in your refrigerator like blocks of cheese, deli meats or cut veggies.

Food Kozy Wrappers are easy to clean - just rinse/wash in the sink and air dry in minutes, plus they're recycled and totally non-toxic and non-leaching. Each one is 13.5" round, and they're available in fresh green and sunny orange.

Although normally priced at $4.99 each or $21.99 for a set of five, the good folks at EcoConvenience are giving clubcobi members 10% off the entire site until Mother's Day (May 9th). But that's not all, they will also be offering all customers free shipping for any order placed on EARTH DAY (April 22nd) so you will be able to combine the 10% off AND free shipping as long as you order on Earth Day. (That's about a $15.00 saving for basic FedEx shipping from Vancouver to Ontario). Just use the promo code: cobistyle when you order and enjoy shopping with a clear conscience!
