Green (Living) Review wins "Greenopolis Blog of the Week"

by Michael Smith

My article "What our elders can teach us (the title on Greenopolis) – What our elders can teach us about saving the world" from the Green (Living) Review, that I posted on my Blog on Greenopolis won “Blog of the week” for week ending February 14, 2009 at Greenopolis. Many thanks to Greenopolis for thinking this article worthy of that honor.

Greenopolis is a really great site, at which anyone can participate in a dialogue with a community of writers on green and environmental issues and topics – by reading Blog entries and posting posting entries on one's now Blog, by commenting on other people's posts and thereby engaging with the writers, by creating and taking part in polls, as well as keeping up with the latest green news headlines. Greenopolis even has a green job board and also a Free'N Exchange where one can advertise things that one wishes to pass on.

I think that community, especially “green” community is really important.

When you are making sacrifices in order to green your lifestyle, it can sometimes feel like you are a bit alone out there in doing so.

Taking part in such an online community can be a great way to locate others in your area that are interested in the same things you are exploring and Greenopolis is a great site and community in that respect.

Those of us this side of the big pond in the UK and elsewhere in Europe may feel a little strange there at time as it is a North American site and I am not sure, as yet, how many connections there are from Europe. I guess we shall find out sooner or later.
