When old is new again

One person's trash is another person's treasure. Sometimes it is a clever designer finding a new use for an old thing - other times it is curb-side shopping, and other times it is passing on your old stuff to organizations that can redistribute it. It's all good.

One of the great things about this blog is that it keeps us actively looking for sustainable businesses, products, organizations, events and news around town. We learn something new each day at D2E and we love sharing it.

Since finding new owners for old goods is clearly sustainable, today we wanted to feature More Than Words. This is a student-run organization that sells donated books. It's simple: you have some old books that are cluttering your home, they can sell them to raise money. High school students learning how to run a business.

Beauty in simplicity.
