It's Earth Day - Kensington has some eco friendly items to consider

It's Earth Day.  A time for us to reflect on what are we doing to help ensure this ball o' dirt keeps on rolling around with us on it.  It's hard to deny the deleterious effects we are having on a global scale, so it's important we all do our own part.  I now work from home so my gas for commute has dropped.  I like now to get around on pedal power, or my eScooter, if I'm going somewhere.  But we can think about packaging of our goods we buy, I'm definitely breaking down more boxes and cleaning more jars and containers for the recycling.  But also what we buy.  Google always makes a large to-do about their products being made from recycled materials.

Well, here is Kensington who has some items as well that we can all use


Kensington’s EQ Laptop Backpack is a sustainable, stylish, and comfortable solution for commuters. Using 7.1 x 250ml plastic bottles, the backpack is made of 29.3% post-consumer recycled (PCR) polyester. Its lightweight design features ample storage, cushioning and breathability.

At least 47% of the plastic used in Kensington SlimBlade™ Pro EQ Trackball is post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic. The ergonomically-designed SlimBlade™ Pro EQ Trackball enables user speed and precision, plus simultaneous connectivity across multiple devices with wired and wireless connection options supporting both PC and Mac. 

The KM270 EQ Rechargeable Desktop Set from Kensington is composed of at least 60% post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic and delivered in Forest Stewardship Council (FSC®) certified packaging. The KM270 features a full-size keyboard layout with a dedicated Copilot key for Windows, a spill-proof design, and a quiet-click mouse. 


Kensington’s MY430 EQ Rechargeable Mouse features an integrated rechargeable battery lasting up to 4 months on a single charge, and 60% of its plastic components are post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic. Ideal for those requiring a fully-featured mouse, the MY430 can be used wirelessly across three different devices, and can be further enhanced with free KensingtonWorks™ software.


The Slim NanoSaver® 2.0 EQ lock from Kensington contains only 7.5g of plastic versus 36g in prior generation, equaling a 78% reduction in plastic, and is delivered in Forest Stewardship Council (FSC®) certified packaging. Crafted from strong stainless steel, the Slim NanoSaver® 2.0 EQ Keyed Laptop Lock allows ultra-thin devices to lie flat and stable and ensures full access to valuable ports.
