It's Earth Day! It must be time to launch something!
Dear world,
It's Earth Day: which means that if you are a green business, organization, activist, blogger, or consumer, than it must be time to launch something. It's sort of built into your DNA. You hear EARTH DAY, and you think: JOIN THE MASSES AND TRY TO GET EVERYONE'S ATTENTION TO MY GREEN PRODUCT when all any green minded person wants to do is put their toes in the sand and look at the sea, or lay on their back at look at clouds and contemplate their relationship to planet earth.
Ahh well: here goes: a list of some cool initiatives launching today:
Green Peace has set a goal of mobilizing 3 million people to join the fight for the climate, to force governments to act against runaway climate change.
To-go ware lunched their new bamboo utencil set. Never throw away another plastic utensil ever again, clip it to your purse and have a conversation starter, and look good while you reduce your impact on the planet. Not a bad deal (but go fast: because the masses will be gathering after they are featured on Oprah later today).
TheFind and GoodGuide are partnering to help shoppers find green products: Over 1 million green products from organic and environmentally-friendly brands and stores can be found on TheFind.com using its new green shopping search. GoodGuide helps consumers make safe, healthy and green choices by allowing them to search or browse over 70,000 food, toys, personal care, and household cleaning products to quickly learn the impacts of their purchases. GoodGuide scientifically rates products, brands, and companies on their health, social and environmental performance.
