Technology can be a force for evil, or for awesome. Those who shun technologies that could save the planet are just as guilty as those who ignore the environment. There's a safe balance, where the awesome can help nature as much as it helps us have a good time and live easier lives. EcoGeek devotes its pages to exploring the symbiosis between nature and technology. If you're interested in that, then stop by, and stop by often.

EcoGeek was conceived and founded (and is run and edited) by Hank Green. Hank started EcoGeek in graduate school as a class assignment for his professor, Jon Weber, formerly of the Industry Standard, currently of NewWest.net. Hank has consulted with large environmental non-profits concerning their web strategy including The Wilderness Society, The Nature Conservancy and the Sierra Club.

The brilliant Pete Holm designed our logo, and also writes and draws one of our favorite comic strips (Gary Bringer of Pain).

EcoGeek is written by Hank Green, Phillip Proefrock, Dave Burdick, Gavin Harper, Matt James, Nino Marchetti, A. Siegel, Billy Shih, and Jon Schroeder.

We're hugely in debt to open source initiatives, from Apache on the bottom to Joomla on the top. We couldn't have done this without Open Source.
