    Are you attending LLX in person and planning on checking out the exhibitor floor? If so, the Sustainability Round Table would like your help! If you spot a vendor distributing swag that meets sustainability criteria (e.g. see this rubric), please let us know

    What is an actual example of "sustainable swag"? Consider this bag, made of recycled cotton and distributed by Elsevier (with, according to a statement on the bag itself, "5% of the costs of this bag [having been] donated to Plastic Oceans").

    Elsevier bag where 5% of the cost of the bag was donated to the charity Plastic Oceans.
