Ecojot - Coolest new eco-paper around
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
This is maybe the most exciting post I’ve had the pleasure of writing yet. I started Your EcoSource website because I was frustrated that I couldn’t find attractive eco-friendly papers. It seemed the options were either virgin-forest papers that were, admittedly, fabulous, or amateurish home-made papers that had no mainstream function. But a new line called Ecojot, from MiragePapers, made in Ontario (where I’m from) is changing that.
The line is made of 100% post-consumer waste and includes everything from lined binder sheets (think back-to-school) to super chic notebooks, and according to their blog it’s not just the paper that makes the product line green. All of the inks used are non-toxic, and vegetable-based, and the company is even trying to source greener options for packaging and labeling.
It’s great to find others who share my ideal that we can fit green consciousness into our lifestyle, rather than fitting our lifestyle to a green stereotype. We’ll definitely be featuring Ecojot products on the home website.
Cool EcoProduct Rating: 5 stars!

Hemp is the real answer to all sorts of eco-problems and I think that developing a TCP-free, bug proof, fast growing, drought resistant, frost resistant, high oil seed growing, high usable fiber variety GMO that would grow in poorer soils and Canadian climates would be vindication for someone like Monsanto, considering the shit they caused for Western Canadian farmers recently.
If we could get edible seeds, oil seeds for biodiesel, fiber for cloth and papers and a bio-mass product from a plant that grows like a weed Northern Canadians might have a shot at self-sufficiency. C’mon Monsanto, make some money here in a win-win! I dare you!
