Planet Thought for 2008:
Compelled by this last post, I did a little looking into some green business initiatives currently at work.
- TerraCycle: I don’t garden but I’m a big fan of TerraCycle, started by two Princeton students in 2001, and whose flagship product is plant food make from worm crap and packaged in used soda bottles. They’ve since branched out with an array of garden products, a crowd-sourcing materials strategy, R&D through contests, and a guidebook on Eco-Capitalism. This sounds like the coolest place to work in America.
- TerraPass: I offset my driving, travel and home energy use with TerraPasses. One of my New Year’s resolutions for 2008 is to greenify my home as best I can. So I’ll be cutting the energy output of my domicile with some of the green products they recommend.
- Blue Egg: Is a green lifestyle site that I haven’t quite figured out yet. Sounds interesting though.
- GreenBiz.com is a publication highlighting the green business revolution. I’ve just subscribed to their rss feed.
