LEED
A Greener Bean
In case you didn't have your coffee yet today, I'll keep this brief. Starbucks in Huntington Beach got an eco-friendly makeover - for example, it installed a Kirei Board, FSC-wood, and eco-resin counter. The 'bucks also is looking towards a LEED certification for all new company-owned stores by 2010.Bird Watching

This chic boutique stocks accessories and trendy threads – tees, dresses, denim - from APC and 3.1 Phillip Lim, plus eco-lines like Green Bird and PI Organic (its Organic Cotton Deep Racer Tee's on sale for $19 right now). Take a gander at the essential oil soaps like lavender and oatmeal from Saipua too.LIKE THIS TIP? TRY THIS:
