The new wave of sustainability websites

Date: May 02, 2007, posted by Alexander Goerlach
 
 

Having a look into the web you find new publications regarding sustainability and sustainable lifestyle. We enjoyed discovering www.sprig.com. It is a publication of the Washington Post dealing with design and products that fulfill certain sustainable criteria.
 
"Stylish people are into green" is the claim of the new venture. It seems to be a new channel for the newspaper to create advertisment room for a new market segment: creating products for a new group of consumers, the new greeners.
 

 

www.blueegg.com seems to be more climate change solution orientated in terms of energy saving and not a design forum. The page however is still in construction at the moment .
 
"We at Blue Egg are scrambling to compile the best information we can find about living more sustainably. We strive to present solutions that are clear and practical, without ducking the tradeoffs to consider—and without instilling guilt! Our planet may be fragile, but it’s not beyond hope. If we all undertake simple shifts of habit, it will make a difference." This is the message of blueegg.com so far.
 
Blueegg also offers - and this may be the business idea behind the new site - services for green contractors, interior designers, or architects.
 
Both sites are worth to be visited.
