Patagonia’s “Footprint Chronicles”
November 9, 2007
Alex Steffen from Worldchanging wrote yesterday about an interesting site from Patagonia called “The Footprint Chronicles” that traces back the manufacturing process and environmental impact of five of their products.
It’s an encouraging example of corporate transparency (Patagonia has long been at the forefront of sustainable business), and an instructive look at just how many different communities are affected by a single piece of apparel destined for the overdeveloped world. I encourage you to check it out.

Hi. Just read about you guys on the No Impact Man web site and I wanted to give you some support and also let you know that I have a list of ways I’ve found to give up plastic on my web site:

I hope it helps give you some ideas.
