Beautiful Jewelry Inspired by Yoga

Feb. 19, 2011 - PRLog -- When looking for unique, high quality jewelry inspired by yoga look no further than the designs created by Shanti Boutique.  As members of the Fair Trade Federation, they are deeply dedicated to ensuring that fair wages and good employment opportunities are provided to economically disadvantaged artisans and farmers worldwide. A portion of all profits is donated to the Tibetan Children's Education Fund.  Find out more about the TCEF at http://www.tibetanchildrenseducation.org .

They are also members of Green America Business Network. Green America is a nonprofit membership organization dedicated to harnessing the economic power of consumers, investors and businesses to promote social justice and environmental sustainability.

In creating their jewelry, not only it is wonderful to wear, you will have peace of mind knowing that these products are created with the preservation of the environment in mind. This is achieved by following the basic principle of reduce, reuse and recycle in addition to carbon offsetting.

Shanti Boutiques business ethic is to practice what they preach. First they reduce use of resources by minimizing printing, use of electricity and heating, packaging (including final shipping dimensions to take up minimum space and weight in transport) and business travel necessary for business. Because of their central location, none of their employees drive to work.

They also recycled office products as possible, recycle what they can and package the orders in recyclable packaging. Their main shipping is done through USPS. USPS priority packaging is certified by Cradle to Cradle. Cradle to Cradle Certification of Priority Mail and Express Mail packaging has established USPS and its suppliers as environmentally responsible leaders in product design.

They neutraliize carbon emmissions from shipping by purchasing carbon offsets through greenshipping.com. GreenShipping.com uses a carbon shipment calculator to determine the CO2 emmissions generated by each shipment. Once the package has completed it's journey and the calculations are complete, Shanti Boutique purchases carbon offsets to neutralize the shipment's effect on climate change.
