Sustainable. Local. Fairly-Traded. Organic. Renewable. Recycled. Eco-Conscious. It’s All Here.
There is something we love about every one of the hand-picked gems at A Cooler Planet. Some delight a sense or two, others are playful and others pure practical ingeniousness. Many are locally-made, some have their Chicago home exclusively at A Cooler Planet. Many support important non-profit and community work. And all are very easy on the planet.A Cooler Night’s Sleep
The most extensive selection of green bedding, blankets and bedroom furnishings in the Chicago-area. Eco-conscious, synthetic-sensitive and allergy sufferers sleep easily (perchance to dream of a cooler planet?).

When you explore the world by putting pieces of it in your mouth, purity becomes important. So babies and kids get special attention with phlate-free and Bisphenol A-free baby bottles (two plasticizers linked to hormone disruption), and synthetic and chemical-free toys (some locally made). Plus, look for nature- and environmentally-themed games for some friendly family competition.
