You’re thoroughly modern: you’ve got mobile broadband 4gand an a leather “man bag” and you only read from a tablet, but what are you doing to help the environment? Here are a few ways any eco-concious man can rock being green without sacrificing his style:
Reusable Coffee Mug: If you live in an urban area odds are you drink way too much coffee. With new porcelain coffee containers that look just like your favorite coffee shop’s disposable cups you’ll fit right in. Plus, many coffee retailers offer discounts to those who bring their own mug.

Locavore: If you’ve got any green space try growing some of your own produce. Start with herbs and small vegetables and if you’re on the dating scene, show your lady friend. Everyone’s impressed with men who farm their own food, you know what we mean?
