Greensearch Relaunch: Bigger, Bloggy-er, more Impact-tastic
|
February 2nd, 2008 by corey szopinski |
It is said that the longest journey begins with a single step. This is certainly true when it comes to the environment.
We’re seeing positive first steps in the green direction. The news media is reporting on green issues, people are talking about global warming, and businesses are starting to think about sustainability. But we still have a long way to go before we, as a whole culture, begin to live within the boundaries of our natural resources in a way that is responsible and sustainable for future generations.
We are (re)launching Greensearch with this in mind.
Greensearch is a side project of Core Industries, a small interactive communications firm. We make websites for a living. We hunt around online for cool stuff. We care about the environment.
Greensearch is a place where we can share what we’re learning and what we’re finding. We think that you’re enjoy the discovery process with us, tracking down smartly designed and sustainably manufactured products, quick things you can do in your life, and interesting new research.
But this site is also about taking action. Greensearch was launched in December of 2006 as a simple way to generate donations to environmental non-profits. With the first generation of the site, we generated a slight amount of money based on the text links that appeared next to the search results. However, that wasn’t enough.
You’ll notice that the new website now has much more banner advertising than before. This increased advertising helps us make a bigger impact by generating more money that we can donate to our chosen non-profit. We encourage you to visit our sponsors, and let them know that you care about environmentally responsible products.
If you have suggestions for us or would like to advertise on the site, please let us know: sayhello@core-industries.com
