We were recently honored as one of the “Top Green Living Blogs” of 2017. Said the folks over at AJ Madison, which compiled the list,

Using the power of the purse to change the world is essentially what this blog is about. Started by author and entrepreneur Diane MacEachern, Big Green Purse aims to make the shift to healthier purchases easier, and identifies reliable products which are actually green and not just “green-washed”.

With climate change and ecological sustainability being one of the biggest challenges in our generation, “going green has never been more important,” says AJ Madison. “But it can be tough, and as wired as we are, we need all the help that we can get.”

Fortunately, “blogs that provide both practical and ideal content focusing on issues such as global warming, sustainability, and green living are now plentiful and popular online.”

If you’re looking for advice on how to transform your lifestyle into an eco-conscious one, you’ve come to the right place. We’ve scoured the web and handpicked the best, most informative green living sites out there to help you get inspired and get started.

Here are the top green living blogs that can give you all the information you need to start your eco-conscious lifestyle.

We’re delighted to be included on this list!
