GreenOptions: A Green Blog Network for Everyone  E-mail
Written by Hank Green

You may not have noticed, but I certainly have, that the Environmental Blogosphere is growing extremely quickly. What was, just last year, a couple dozen blogs, has quickly become a couple thousand. This is, of course, fantastic. The more people we have covering these stories, the better situated the whole world will be to understand the issues that we face and tackle them with greatest efficacy.

While EcoGeek is never going to be able to highlight every one of those blogs, we are happy to have expanded ourselves into a blog network, and to have good company in the environmental blog network space.

GreenOptions, once, like EcoGeek, a single independent blog, has branched into a network along with us, already providing over a dozen blogs under its umbrella.

They're covering everything from global news to arts and crafts. And, yes, they have an ecogeeky offering as well :-). Blog networks allow writers to focus on writing, while marketing, technical development, and monetization can be handled by a team that would be completely unsupportable by individual blogs. GreenOptions has done a wonderful job of expanding itself into a huge variety of niches.

As of right now, I think that my favorite Green Options blogs remain Green Building Elements and Sustainablog, but there are gems throughout the network. You can find all of their blogs in their top bar, which lives on every page in their network.

I love Green Options almost as much as I love Ecogeek! ;D
I just wish I could find an Australian version of this site.

I especially recommend the eCourse "30 Days to a Greener You" and the green-journal idea they suggest - I did the eCourse last year, hopefully they are still running it.

Green home building techniques.

I was wondering if you know anyone who is building homes with "cob?"

As a Minneapolis real estate agent, I am interested in green building techniques. I wrote a post one that seems rather far-fetched, but is common in most of the world:
