A curated list of the best, top reviewed sustainable gifts & eco gift ideas feat. gifts for reducing waste & saving energy & water to stop climate change.

Collection by: Jake & Audrey
Co-Founders | Agreeable & Co.

A collection curated for the best sustainable (i.e., ‘green’) gifts and gifts ideas.

Oftentimes, gifts that are environmentally conscious are somewhat boring. They lack a certain modern or interesting aesthetic. For this collection, we tried to go against this norm and select a range of products that are not only environmentally friendly, but also well designed and incredibly useful.

We divided these 30 gifts into three sections, “Gifts for reducing waste”, “Gifts for saving energy,” and “Gifts for learning about climate change.” For anyone interested in living a more sustainable and ‘green’ lifestyle, these are perfect. Well, in our opinion they’re perfect. We use some of these products on a daily basis. Of course, even though this is a collection of gifts, feel free to get some of these finds for yourself. We imagine you may want to. Just a guess. And please let us know what you think in the comments!
