Sharing is caring
by Janine Carpenter
Okay… so I’ve spent all weekend wracking my brain for some sort of environmental topic I could blog about today - something inspiring, something that would make people change, something profoundly genius that could save the world!
But nothing … so I either have bloggers block or I’m taking this post way too seriously!
I have always been a bit of a hippy at heart and spend loads of time researching, reading and dreaming about big and small things that I could do to change the world. So it is in this hippy spirit that I have decided to share the love (cheesy I know!) and tell you about my favourite environmental reads.
My current favourite “Green” Blogs:
- Treehugger – The name says it all. It's full of “10 ways to …” tips ranging from how to green up your sex life and eco-friendly lighting solutions right down to how to dress Green. I love this site!
- Cobhouse – Probably not the best read on earth but love the fact that they are really making it happen and in doing so influencing the community around them. I think it is really inspiring … I want to build a house… *sigh*.
- Urbansprout – An awesome South African blog directory listing all things organic and eco-friendly! My personal favourite is the organic wine directory ; )
- Carbon Copy – A space dedicated to sustainability…. Give this a read …. It will make you think!
Finally, if you haven’t seen Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth – hellllllooooo!!!! You need too!
That’s it from me ….. if anything I’ve given you something to read, something to watch and something to think about.
Happy Blog Action Day!

post a commentThis is a good post, Janine. I'm always looking for ideas on being more 'green', but don't always have the time to do research. Am glad that you posted all these links. I am looking forward to reading through these sites!

Hi Janine. Thanks for mentioning urban sprout. I'm rather partial to organic wine too! And it's really encouraging that more wine producers are going organic. Seems like quirk has more than a fair share of treehuggers working there - that is very cool.
