Bagir's Recycled Plastic Bottle Suit Gives New Meaning to Euro-Trash

Israeli clothing company Bagir outfits about 1 in 6 UK men. A fraction of those men are set to become more chic with Bagir’s Eco-Gir, a suit made from 100% recycled materials, 30 PET plastic bottles.

The company is also set to become the first in the world to label its products with a carbon label.

How is that Israel is so behind in the environment circle one minute and then leagues ahead the next? Maybe divine intervention to quenching the Israeli thirst for plastic? For those suave men who don’t like polyester, Bagir has also developed a line from organic cotton.

    If you are one of these people they have hundreds of psychic palm reading books out there in which you could even do a basic palm reading
    in the privacy of your own home. There are many kinds of

  2. If you want flowers on your cake but the cost of the artificial flowers isn.
    This could make selecting the right cake design challenging.
    Perhaps a ready-made frosting in an easy to use applicator is a better fit for this project.

  3. It is a timeless paradigm of alchemy, as it makes extrapolative assertion and associations which either

    I really like these recipes and with your own paleo cookbook and recipes
    you could be making the most delicious desserts too.

  5. They often imply that a food is much better for you than it actually is.
    Other health conditions improve or are eliminated while on the gluten free

    cut down on alcohol cost, since many people would be less likely to drink early in the day.

  6. When selling in a “campaign sale” a single deal can make a sales rep’s quota for an entire year.

    Through an active high tech public relations program you can listen and respond

    causes confusion as well as duplicitous expenditures.
