A month or so ago Recycla and Enviro-Girl got an email inviting them to check out izzitgreen.com. Whazzit? After a rousing game of Rock-Paper-Scissors some negotiating about who would post what in the next few weeks, Enviro-Girl agreed to don her Super-Exploratory Goggles and enter the Cyber Zone of izzitGreen.
If you live in Massachusetts or if you are thinking about starting a “Green/Eco Network online,” check them out. It’s a cross between MySpace, Consumer Reports, and eco-blog — mostly specific to the Boston area, but enough product and service reviews to make it a useful stop for any Eco Warrior.
The site is bright, modern, full of information and still under construction in a few areas (but whose isn’t?). Over 700 folks have signed on to be part of the IzzitGreen network and the big questions behind IzzitGreen are:
Is it green?
What comes out?
How’s it run?
What do they care about?
From day cares to day spas, from pizza to books, IzzitGreen is THE website that rates and reviews any Boston-area business, encouraging people to post their favorites. By listing the Good and the Green, they hope to direct people to those places. And by asking “is it good”" and “is it green?” IzzitGreen is a little business online making the environment their big business. (And they have the cutest little mascot guy.)
Go, Eco-Warriors, check them out — and if you know of other similar sites for networking Eco-Warriors and reviewing local products and services, let the Eco-Women know!
