The greenest product is the one that already exists. This is the driving principle behind Patagonia's Common Threads program, which aims to Reduce, Repair, Reuse, Recycle, and Re-imagine the way consumers use products. Launched in September, Patagonia partnered with eBay to create a resale website where people could buy pre-owned Patagonia clothing and gear. Once customers sign the Common Threads pact, agreeing to move towards ‘a world where we take only what nature can replace,’ Patagonia then helps find new homes for their used gear.
