Environmental and social responsibility doesn’t have to mean hemp and earth tones. Check out these snazzy products featured at GreenFest.

Who says we need to drink eight glasses of water a day? Experts are no longer sure if the average person needs that much.

I tend to be a skeptic about most things, especially when there's conflicting information. Such is the case with plastic water bottles. I'm not panicked, but I don't want my daughter to be part of the experiment pool. I'm also a sucker for great design, so my research led me to Sigg. Sigg products, made in Switzerland, have been around for almost 100 years, but the snazzy new sport bottles designed for babies, kids, teens, and adults just hit the States in 2005. With dozens of different styles and changing collections, as well as accoutrements to top, wash, and tote your bottle, Sigg is readying itself to become America's new fashion accessory. Most importantly, though, they're non-controversial.
