A Not-So-Green Sprig
Wednesday, September 19th, 2007
Being green is fashionable, like, it’s totally hot. I was not surprised to discover a new online publication aimed at the environmentally aware but also fashion conscious. So check out Sprig.
Now before you start complaining, it is true that for the people running this publication, being fashionable comes before being pro-environment. But at least it’s an online thing so it’s not like you have bought a magazine that used up a few trees and then ended up in the dumpster. Of course, even reading on the computer uses energy and thus depletes resources but maybe you’ll buy some green power off-sets from your energy provider. Or maybe you just bought a backpack with a solar panel that you can use to recharge your iPhone or mobile device, so you don’t feel as guilty (unfortunately, these backpacks do not work for laptops).
