Louis' Footprint

lv-foot.jpgDid you know Louis Vuitton has a green thumb? Proud to be associated with The Climate Project and Al Gore's newly won Nobel, Louis Vuitton would like to shine a little light on its own greenery, presented in a lush 32-page pamphlet (don't print it out!) The company has been taking a carbon inventory of its business practices since 2004, they switched from air to sea transport because it's less polluting, and of course their handbags are made to last, which, we imagine originally had more to do with quality than "sustainability," but oh well. If that doesn't interest you, then watch the not-so-riveting Louis Vuitton channel on YouTube, where you can watch Annie Leibovitz shoot Steffi Graf and Andre Agassi. Yawn. [via Fashionphile]
