“I started Marc Skid because I believed that brands should be more like the people we love in life. I think it's universal that we are drawn to people with a sense of humor, who are purposeful in their lives, and who have strong character. The brand's call to action is "Make Your Marc on the World." Inspired by our motto, I strived with everything about the brand to help make the world a better place. I had some inclination about many aspects of the brand -- using organic Pima cotton and giving a helping hand to those in need and to our beautiful world. However, one thing I did not know is that water bottles are just polyester in a different form. Although it costs more, to stay true to my mission, I decided to use upcycled water bottles for my waistbands. Having come from the corporate world, I know most corporations will not incur additional cost unless demanded by consumers. Do you want to Make a Marc on the World? One way is to demand that we first use upcycled plastic before we make any new plastic. To help, I want to introduce you to companies using 100% upcycled plastic to create their products. I encourage you to vote with your purchases. Together we can Make a Marc on the World!”

“Every day is Earth Day” is a saying oft repeated around Green Toys, Inc. The saying represents the commitment this environmentally conscious company has made to manufacturing children’s toys from 100% recycled material. “We believe that the best way to encourage environmental change is through goods people buy and use every day – and in our case that’s children’s products,” Green Toys asserts on its website.

Although various recycled items are utilized, its primary toy ingredient is recycled milk jugs. Whatever its origins, the plastic is reprocessed into raw material for Green Toys and mixed with mineral-based coloring --that is food safe! -- to make eco-friendly playthings for youngsters. As the Green Toys website states, “We not only divert material from landfills but also reduce our carbon footprint and potentially harmful greenhouse gas emissions.”

Green Toys offers a wide variety of items for the amusement, entertainment, and education of our precious little ones including toy chests and boats, little red wagons, tea sets, dump trucks, fire trucks, helicopters, rockets, and a house playset. It also sells jump ropes, stacking cups, a wonderfully cute little elephant on wheels, and a “twist teether” for the youngest of the young. There are toys designed to nurture the budding artist through coloring and dough sculpting activities and a whole section of toys inspired by the classic children’s program Sesame Street.
