I wouldn’t usually post a coupon from Spreadshirt since they seem to have a new one coming out every couple of days for various promotions, but I was a bit keen to keep up this run of posting coupons that give you 15% off, so here it is!

Here’s the Spreadshirt blog post about the coupon code [note: I think it might be US/Canada only, but probably worth a go for Europeans too]

Whilst its pretty safe to assume that a Gas Works isn’t the first place that someone would look for artistic inspiration, Carmacazzi has actually produced something pretty cool from a somewhat surprising source.

GasWorks, Seattle’s lake union park. During the turn of the century this beautiful factory refined oil and now is refined art. I added the hidden “Seattle” ..represent. Featuring five hand screened prints the works wrap front to back and an abstracted “gasworks” text up the sleeve onto the shoulder.

Hold up, the gas works refined oil? That doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to me, or are we talking about American ‘gas’ as in petrol? Still, it looks cool, and the hoodie itself is environmentally conscious, so its all good.

I’m pretty much snowed under with e-mails coming in from companies at the moment, because of being away on holiday and spending time not looking at my computer screen, so I’m going to start doing really, really short posts about companies, basically telling you to take a look at them and decide for yourself what’s cool. It’s not a perfect situation, but since I’ve got literally hundreds of links that I want you to see then I think this is a decent stop-gap solution for now.

First up, some tees with an environmental message from a brand Bob Eco. This Greece-based project is run by graphic designer Andreas Kioroglou, who decided to put his skills to use after being scared by ‘An Inconvenient Truth’, as we all were!

And know this sounds like the lazy man’s way of thinking, and it isn’t really what I personally believe, but how much point is there really in people turning down their down a couple of degrees in winter and their A/C up a couple of degrees in summer if ‘big business’ continues to crap all over our planet at any given opportunity?

This tee seems like perfect subject matter for Design Give, the company that lets you (you? that’s me!) choose where a charitable donation goes from each sale, and I’m glad that they’ve finally released a politically slanted tee, because they know how to pick good artists, and we all know how amongst my many quests is the hunt for well design political t-shirts.

The tee should be available for sale now (at the time of writing it was on pre-order), but there’s only 200 of these bad boys available so be quick if you want one.

One of my pet peeves about the green movement is that its all a bit in your face or ecotistical, so to find a tee that both supports the little changes that everyone can make, and is pretty funny is really refreshing.

Do you think that when you have an idea using a CFL bulb it takes slightly longer to dawn on you and is slightly less cool?

Y’know, I’m pretty sick of how being ecologically sound and environmentally conscientious is now just another buzzword for cranking up prices. Sure, put your shopping in an organic cotton tote bag rather than using plastic bags, but doesn’t it seem a bit silly to pay $60 for that bag?I guess that’s what this tee is all about, challenging people to stop being so damned smug about how eco-friendly they are… and, trying to stop people from eating pandas? My French isn’t great, but I’m pretty sure that’s what it means. For the record, I will never stop eating panda until they stop tasting so finger ling ling good!
