I went down to my local London Drugs (Store #4, Broadway & Cambie, Vancouver) to help build a Green Deal products display for earth day. Did a little shopping, had a little fun, made a little video.
You may be surprised how many green products London Drugs carries – and this video by no means shows all of them.
So if you know anyone who likes to shop green, why not send them this link? It’s a good Green Deal for everybody!

What kind of criteria did you use to determine what consituted a “green” product?
Excellent question! The criteria vary depending on the product. 3rd party certification for organic, fair trade, energy efficiency or recycled material is one, also manufacturer-declared claims for recycled content, non-toxic ingredients etc. We also take into account some of the corporate policies of the manufacturer and how the product stacks up with others in the category. You can see a list of some of the factors here: http://www.greendeal.ca/more.html
Please let us know if you have any more questions!
