LARQ calls itself the world’s “first self-cleaning water bottle” and portable water purification device. Initially launched through a Kickstarter campaign that broke the record for the largest-ever crowd-funded hydration campaign, LARQ’s latest PureVis water bottle uses a patented UV-C LED technology to kill up to 99 percent of bacteria like E. coli from your water — and in your water bottle. The best part: it does all of this without you ever having to replace a filter.

The minimalist bottle is double-walled to keep drinks chilled for up to 24 hours and is made from a safe, non-toxic material that is BPA and plastic-free.

RadRover 6 Plus Electric Fat Tire Bike

Want a gift that cuts down on carbon emissions and will save your recipient some precious time on their commute? With a robust 750-watt motor, this RadRover 6 Plus from Rad Power Bikes is just as capable of climbing steep hills as it is for powering through gnarly trails.

We like that the motor can go as far as 45 miles on one charge, making it one of the longest-range bikes we’ve tested. Beefy tires and rugged front shocks make it great for any type of terrain, and it’s got great stopping power thanks to a hydraulic breaking system. 

Choose between high-step or step-thru bike options, the latter of which is a little easier to get on and off, and it fits riders from five-foot-two to six-foot-two. The bike’s tough as nails, and with a long range battery, it’s a great alternative to gas-guzzling cars or public transport.

Some, like the Lifepack backpack shown here, even come with a slot for a solar-powered charger (included with purchase). Further proof of the company’s commitment to sustainable manufacturing: the New York-based brand has pledged to remove 229 ocean-bound plastic bottles for every item sold.

You can substantially reduce the number of soda cans and seltzer bottles in your recycling bin by getting Breville’s new InFizz Fusion.

This kitchen tool can infuse regular tap water with CO2, giving you total control over your beverage’s carbination. Using it with plain water will produce seltzer, but with a special cap that lets you control the release of carbonation, you can now fizz juice, tea, cocktails, wine and re-fizz regular soda (which definitely makes it stand above rival carbonators like the SodaStream).

Even better, the company’s shipping practices are carbon neutral, and it’s committed to planting one tree with every purchase.

This carry-on bag is large enough to hold enough clothes for roughly a week, but small enough to fit inside the cabin on most domestic and international flights. Our favorite touch is its three-digit lock, which ensures the luggage’s zippers stay closed during your flight.
