Color My World, But Make It Forest-Friendly

Who doesn't love color pencils? Well, unless you're dead inside. The folks who brought us Forestry Stewardship Council-certified pencils are brightening up our bookbags with equally forest-friendly color pencils made from sustainably harvested California cedar. Use the set of 12 to color inside or outside the lines. Unscented except for the aroma of all-natural cedar. :: Fred Flare and :: ForestChoice

Personally, I prefer Crayolas, but these are nice too. I might get one. At least they're both better than RoseArt.
Yes, they're green...but are they GOOD?
Aside from using hemp, windpower, and recycled papers, it's difficult for artists to find environmentally sound materials that are of the same quality as their big-name counterparts (Prismacolor, etc.)
