Toys R Us Launches Eco-Friendly Toys
by Earth 911 on April 1st, 2008
Environmental Leader reports that Toys R Us is introducing a line of toys made from materials including wood and organic cotton by Earth Day.
A few other highlights of the new line:
- Packaging will be no less than 70 percent recycled material
- Wooden toys will be marked with the Forest Stewardship Council logo
- Cotton dolls are colored using natural or water-based dyes
These new products are marked with a green reversed “R” logo with a green leaf, encircled by the words “Recycle, Renew, Reuse, Re-think.”
Toys R Us will be introducing new toys in the line later this year. To properly dispose of children’s toys that you no longer need, use Earth 911’s recycling locator.
