A growing list of green lens' that I come across (latest at the end)

Green Blogs
A green lens run by good pal, Jeff of Sustainablog fame.
Green Home
A great resource for anyone interested in green building.
Eco Fashion
Summer Rayne Oakes. Three words to make me melt. She is stunning and using her powers for good. Her Lens is another to help you green your style.
Gardening for Beginners
Interesting lens that will doubtless help me in my quest to grow things in my garden.
Alternative Energy
Focused lens on the topic of alternative energy. Interesting stuff to be found here.
Composting with Worms
Another great green Lens from the man behind Sustainablog. All you could ever want to know about composting with worms or Vermicomposting as it is offically known.
Vegan Health
Am becoming more and more vegan every day. I consider myself vegetarian already but really see the need on ethical, health and environmental grounds to only eat the most sustainable positive whole foods. Well that's the theory anyway. Lens' like this will help turn that desire into practice
Frugal gardening for fun
Am trying to get into gardening but time is short so it is tough. This year potatoes, next year tomatoes and then, who knows!
Arborsculture: Living Houses and Structures Grown from Trees
Oh this is so cool...why oh why can we not live more in harmony with our wonderful planet? Only our imagination stops us.
One: To fight the emergence of global AIDS and poverty
Bono's fantastic ONE campaign to fight the emergence of global AIDS and poverty. Great lens drawing invaluable information together.
Home Improvement
No not about the cheesy show with Tim 'Grunt Grunt' Allen. This lens focuses on DIY and has a green element so have listed it here.
How to live without plastic bags
And we so need to. We calculate we spend US$9 billion a year on plastic bags and waste 120 million barrels of oil in the process. get alternatives people...the choices are everywhere. See cityhippy.net for more info
Go Green
Just a great green lens from the folks at Go Green.
Green Building Design
Tons of green building info in this lens. If you want to build something sustainably then there will be something here for you I am sure.

    Lots of great info. Thanks for sharing. I'm always looking for ways to green my life.

Are you Green?

Just curious whether you consider yourself green or not?

And when I say green I mean do you care about our world, the environment, climate change etc? Do you try and purchase chemical-free food from ethical and/or local sources? Do you seek to raise people and planet to the same level as profit?
