Revenge IS

I just had a great interview today with Marilyn Barrett, Founder of [Revenge Is](https://web.archive.org/web/20180427053728/https://www.revengeis.com/)
Apparel.
 Very comfortable eco clothes. 1/2 organic ..the other 1/2 plastic water
bottles

The company’s in your face of 60’s and modern appeal makes for exciting clothing
with a slight extension of the middle finger complete with smiles and invitations
to wear t shirt billboards for discussion. We call it 1st Amendment at its best.

# The other thing they do to help with your revenge is show you how to get it.

To volunteer, Marilyn added, “Volunteer opportunities are abundant. I mean there
are so many issues. Also so much need. Finally and so much to do.  You can be part
of the solution. All by helping one of your local charities or by volunteering away
from home.”

### Contacting your Congressperson

Showing You What Causes The Company Supports.

Also, I got their tees and ya know what. They fit really well. Not just well. I 
mean really really well.  So this whole recycled plastic, in your face approach 
to sustainability really rocks. So it sounds like a good old Jimmy Hendrix song.

# **History of Revenge Is**

Marilyn started the company about a year ago while taking a walk with her pets and
being pissed off during the 2008 Presidential election cycle. She knew the country
had many problems to face and in concert with global concerns, news and political
commentary are global warming,[ energy](https://greenlivingguy.com/2022/08/10-largest-wind-project-development-2022/)
dependence, economic turmoil, and wars resulting in too many deaths and injuries.

Marilyn was angry and frustrated and wanted the people who were primarily responsible
for these problems to stop…and pay for the pain and losses they caused.  The best
part was that she knew she was not alone.

As an attorney, she often counseled clients who, despite suffering serious harm 
from others, decided against pursuing legal action against them. Instead, they chose
to focus their hard earned savings and precious time to rebuild their lives – making
positive commitments to the age old adage that “the best [revenge is](https://greenlivingguy.com/2016/05/earth-day-peoples-climate-music-premieres-video-starring-rapper-common-hip-hop-caucus-ceo/)
living well.” Their actions were profound and struck me as a better way to enact
positive change in my own life and in the world around me. Revenge Is… was born.

Their products and slogans were created to acknowledge and validate our collective
frustrations while at the same time encourage and inspire Marilyn and others to 
take action — to take meaningful steps toward a stable climate, a clean environment,
energy independence, national security, a healthy economy, and a country of high
moral principle and international regard that we can be proud of.

## To start, their  T-shirts and reusable tuck away carry bags are made from recycled plastic bottles and/or Organic Cotton.

Their reusable hybrid coffee/tea mug and tuck away bag give each of us the power
to completely end the use of plastic water bottles, [Styrofoam](https://greenlivingguy.com/2016/09/real-environmental-and-health-impacts-of-styrofoam/)
cups, and plastic grocery bags that clog our landfills.  I really like the idea 
of styrofoam cups because I did not know you could recycle them.  In the podcast
that will come soon I will ask Marilyn what she knows about recycling the specific
products in her clothes.

They also completely eliminate our use of paper cups, hot sleeves and grocery bags.

To me that says to you I am tired of landfills and I am gonna say it when I wear
it, so f……
