Living Green

I don't generally like labels or to be labeled.

In fact, you might say, "I'm tired of labels"

Are you?

Labels do nothing but draw battle lines and separate us into opposing camps.

That's one reason I don't go about overtly campaigning for things I believe in. Instead, I think the best way to bring about change is through positive and loving simple steps.

I'm Tired Of... is one way to do just that.
 

What are the causes they support?

• AIDS
• Alzheimer's
• Animal Cruelty
• Autism
• Breast Cancer
• Cancer
• Child Abuse
• Diabetes
• Discrimination
• Global Warming
• Heart Disease
• The Economy (ha!)
• World Hunger
• (list current as of May 2009, but new causes are being added all of the time)

As you can see, I'm Tired Of... is tired of, well, honestly a lot of sucky shit. There's really no better way to describe such a list than to say that.

How Does Your Purchase Help?

I'm Tired Of... donates 50% of their sales to the partner organizations of each cause. So $5 of every recycled rubber bracelet and $18 of every t-shirt goes to support the cause that you believe in.

In addition to helping fund efforts to change whatever it is you're tired of, you'll also obviously be getting a great conversion piece to wear and invite dialogue about whatever it is you're tired of.

Did You Say Recycled Rubber Bracelet?

Yes, yes I did.

To be more specific, they're actually made from recycled tires! I'm Tired Of... says,

"We also thought our play on words was pretty clever. The bracelet straps are made from recycled TIRES...get it?...TIRED..."

Ha! Clever indeed! The large, emblazoned metal bead is also made from recycled metal!

So go on, head over to I'm Tired Of... and snag yourself a stylish and eco-friendly bracelet made from all recycled materials while simultaneously financially aiding the thing you're most tired of.

You can also vote for other things you're tired of and hopefully see them become the next bracelet.
