eConscious Market Featured In April’s Glamour MagazineDeep in the mountains of Boulder, CO, the staff here at eConsciousMarket.com is proud to say we’re gracing the pages of the April 2008 print issue of Glamour magazine. It turns out that even bike-riding treehuggers in Boulder can still have quite a keen sense of modern style. Not only that, but out of thirty tips given by some of the biggest authorities on the green scene, we came in 3rd. Aces. Here’s recommendation #3 in Glamour’s “Every Woman’s Guide To Going Green…”

Shop online, too. By some estimates, every minute spent driving to a store uses 10 times the energy of doing the same shopping on the Web. For eco-driven sites so good you’ll never miss the mall, visit nau.com and thegreenloop.com for fashion and econsciousmarket.com for home finds.

The list of true “Eco Experts” who contributed to the green guide was very impressive: Simran Sethi (Sundance Channel Green TV Host), Robbie Cox (President of Sierra Club), Gina Solomon (Senior Scientist at NRDC), and Jennifer Boulden and Heather Stephenson (Cofounders of idealbite.com), Diane MacEachern (Founder of biggreenpurse.com), and Rajendra Pachauri, Ph. D. (Chairman of Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.) A list like this is so validating! Thanks Glamour.

It’s very exciting to see traditional magazines like Vanity Fair and Glamour feature articles about going green. Maybe now Glamour would be open to using some post-consumer recycled content paper for their magazine production? We sure hope so! If you agree, let them know.
