Wearable activism.

Show the world your commitment to an organic lifestyle while encouraging others to be more aware about the foods they eat by wearing a provocative t-shirt from Ingreedients. Choose from nine different logos, each of which highlights some of the potential dark sides of food, such as genetically engineered ingredients, pesticides and unhealthy snack foods in vending machines. Creator Vanese Smith explains her designs: "I took my love of food and design to create walking billboards, just to get people to think about reading the ingredients.... food is one of the things we can control going into our bodies, so why not put some thought into it?" The t-shirts themselves come from American Apparel's 100-percent organic cotton line and are available in a natural/creme color ($30 each). The logos are printed in non-toxic, water-based inks. Each shirt is hand screened by Smith herself and can be purchased online.

Also make a statement with t-shirts from JustifyThat.com. Kevin and Renice Ward created Justify That in March of this year in response to the plight of cotton farmers and workers in sweatshops. Their featured shirt ($22.50) casts a spotlight on the negative environmental and ethical problems that arise in the creation of these staples of American wardrobes. The shirt logo creatively lists the ingredients used to create the average t-shirt: pesticides, reactive dyes, chlorine bleach and sweatshop labor. Two other original designs are also available, highlighting Earth Day 2006 and the ecological footprint of the average American citizen. Justify That clothing is made from organic unbleached cotton, is produced in the United States in a sweatshop-free environment, and is printed using low impact, non-toxic inks.
