Revolve Book Shop
Submitted by MikeWhelan on 25 November, 2011 - 03:04
If you're shopping for books, you can live lightly by simply downloading an eBook to your PC tablet, PC Netbook, Mac, Kindle, iPhone, iPad or Android smartphone. If the book isn't available, use the link on the Amazon product page to request an eBook version.
Maybe try an audio book for long drives and cycle rides or when your eyes need a rest. All of the following products have been carefully selected by Revolve and our event participants
Welcome to our online shop. Here you will find a selection of books, music, tools, clothing, toys & gadgets recommended by or related to Revolve, our guest drivers and the organisations that participate in the annual Eco-Rally.
Online shopping is inherently more environmentally friendly than traditional retailing. You can also click the link to find out more about the low emission commercial vehicles that are increasingly being used to deliver your shopping.
For each purchase made through these links, Revolve earns a small commission from Amazon.co.uk. This doesn't affect the price you pay, but helps us to spread the zero emissions message.

Reducing Packaging Waste
Since 2007, Amazon has made significant progress to reduce excess packaging in its deliveries to customers and has introduced additional types of recyclable packing materials to protect items while in transit.
- Amazon Frustration-Free Packaging eliminates hard plastic "clamshell" cases and those annoying plastic-coated wire ties.
- Most UK orders are shipped in 100% post-consumer recycled, lightweight containers which are 100% recyclable.
- The air-filled pillows used to protect items are also 100% recyclable and non-toxic. Deflated air cushions take up less than 1% of their inflated volume.
- Amazon uses special software to determine the "right-sized" box - significantly reducing packaging waste and transportation costs.
- Many larger-sized packages are sent without any additional packaging
- Customers can provide direct feedback on the packaging and upload images of their Amazon.co.uk packages to continually improve the process.
