n Debra's List you will find more than 1000 links to products that benefit your health and the environment. After more than 25 years as a consumer advocate for health and the environment and looking for products to use in my own personal life, I know where to buy a few things and how to choose toxic-free and green products. 
To serve you better, I have moved Debra's List to a new server at

There is a lot of hand work I need to do there, so I am leaving this site up until all that work is done.
All new entries will go on the new site.
All the entries from this site are on the new site, but may not be formatted.
Thanks for your patience during this transition.

Ekla Home
Simple, stylish, sustainable sofas. "We believe in sustainable design. Each piece of furniture we produce is timeless in style, hand crafted, provides lasting comfort and is composed of non-toxic materials. Our deliberately small-scale company produces elegant, tactile pieces that adhere to the strictest environmental practices. Investigate our materials to see why our furniture is healthful for your family, our workers and the earth." This is one of those websites that I love because they communicate well what they are about. Their list of standards they hold themselves to is longer than I can print here. They list all the materials they use. You can even earn LEED credits with their furniture.
