Buy books and have trees replanted in return at this online store.
If you love reading but worry about the drain on natural resources that books entail, you'll appreciate this green online bookstore. Bookatree.co.uk promises to replace the wood used to create its wares by putting 15 per cent of its profits towards planting trees in or near your neighbourhood. It sells a wide range of paperbacks, hardbacks and maps at competitive prices - some cheaper than Amazon - as well as audiobooks, which also count towards the reforestation scheme. It won't win any prizes for design but Bookatree.co.uk's eco-friendly approach is commendable, although stocking e-books would surely save even more trees!
