No landfill here. With the goal of removing 1 billion pounds of plastic from the waste stream by 2028, ocean-cleanup-funding Pela created a phone case made of recycled bioplastics that’s protective and fully compostable. When you’re done with your case, toss it into a compost bin and it will break down completely in six months. Seashell Color Study iPhone Case,$60, pelacase.com
Nordgreen
When you buy a timepiece from über-sustainable Danish watchmaker Nordgreen (like the Philosopher), you can choose one of three nonprofits to receive proceeds from the purchase, including Cool Earth, which works to protect rainforests. $244, nordgreen.com Next, Test Your Knowledge With These 10 Earth Day Quizzes
