• the LEGO Group used 11,000 pounds of Lego pieces to create patio furniture at its new headquarters in Denmark

• adidas released its first 100 percent recycled sneakers

We love leather for our bags, shoes, and car interiors. Did you know that the next leather item you buy could be made from mushrooms?

The result is a soft, supple material that looks and feels just like cow leather. Fashion powerhouses like lululemon and adidas are jumping on board, featuring this sustainable alternative in their products.
