NB, whilst the advertisements that appear alongside this wiki claim to be eco or environmentally friendly, I have nothing to do with thier pressence and as such cannot endorse the products they promote. This is an educational wiki, and you are advised to carefully research any products or services you may wish to use by conducting a lifecycle analysis of the products offered, by asking about where and how they are produced and with what materials. Cross reference the answers with the wiki, and seek independent verification that the systems, products or processes are conforming to the highest standards.
Look for verification from places like the soil association, Oekotex1000 and SKAL lkabelling standards, and from other relevant environmental standards bodies.
