Sustainable, Eco-friendly Gift Ideas Available from New Online Store EcoGeekLiving.com

New York, NY (PRWEB) October 3, 2007

EcoGeekLiving.com (http://www.EcoGeekLiving.com)], an online store with a passion for environmental awareness, announces its recent launch. The site features sustainable , eco-friendly gift ideas. The products featured on the site are perfect as gifts for the individual who has everything.

The site is the brainchild of two New York eco-entrepreneurs and features some of the most unusual, eco-friendly gift ideas on the Web. A random sampling of Eco Geek Living’s offerings includes a wall-mounted hydroponic system for growing vegetables and herbs indoors, a toothbrush sanitizer that kills harmful bacteria using ultra-violet light, a solar-powered “sun jar” that charges in the sunlight to power LED light bulbs inside an old-fashioned mason jar, and for stargazers, a “personal planetarium” that uses GPS technology to help you find your way among the stars.

“We wanted to create an online retail environment that could educate and encourage customers in their efforts to live greener lifestyles,” explains Eco Geek Living co-founder and CEO Chrystal Dailey. “By offering simple, eco-friendly and sustainable products, we hope to help our customers make an easy transition from traditional products to reasonably priced, earth-friendly alternatives. Our mission is to prove that making the switch to sustainable products does not have to mean giving up comfort, variety or affordability.”

The Eco Geek Living products are selected on the basis of utility, sustainability and eco-friendliness, but the site is extremely user-friendly, as well. Eco Geek Living is so dedicated to providing a nurturing, enjoyable shopping experience that it offers site visitors a $ 15 gift coupon in exchange for posting their comments on the site’s “customer review” page, and provides free shipping on orders above $ 250. Along with easy-access customer care, a hassle-free return policy and a wide selection of payment and ordering options, EcoGeekLiving.com conveys a spirit of generosity, conscious business practices and reverence for the planet.

Perhaps most important for the upcoming holiday season is the Eco Geek Living gift registry, which allows users to invite their friends to browse the site’s eco-friendly gift ideas and select the gifts of their choice. The registry includes a guestbook, online photo album, RSVP system and e-notification system. The user-friendly registry comes with a comprehensive list of FAQs to make the gift-selection process even easier.

Eco Geek Living’s founders believe that small changes make a big difference. The partners, Chrystal Dailey and Malaika Ashcroft, share a passion for fun, trendy gadgets and a commitment to environmental awareness, and when they discovered a niche market for “eco-gadgets,” EcoGeekLiving.com was born. Their extensive research into unusual, functional, eco-friendly products resulted in a collection of unique gift items that go beyond mere gadgetry to address a full spectrum of sustainable living possibilities.

“Our intention is to bring more exposure to the everyday benefits of using eco-friendly products. It is our hope that we can help to make these types of products commonplace in every home and office,” emphasizes Dailey.

For more information about EcoGeekLiving.com, its sustainable and eco-friendly gift ideas , or to arrange an interview with its principals, please contact Malaika Ashcroft at 877.246.4335 or e-mail info @ ecogeekliving.com.

Modern Green Living Meets Growing Green Building Demand With Comprehensive Website

Brooklyn, NY (PRWEB) February 5, 2007

As green living expands from furniture and everyday household items to green building, remodeling, interior design and real estate, Modern Green Living (http://www.moderngreenliving.com) is establishing itself as the go-to source for those who wish to build, buy, rent, or remodel an eco-friendly home.

Developed by Josh Dorfman, a prominent figure in the growing fields of green building and green design, Modern Green Living puts green homes at your fingertips. One click gives the user access to hundreds of “green” experts in six key professional categories:

Architects

Builders and Contractors

Consultants

Interior Designers

Realtors

Remodelers

Another click leads visitors to the most comprehensive and continually updated database of green apartments, condos and residential communities available throughout the United States and Canada.

Users can search by location for green home professionals and residences in their area. A detailed map highlights the exact location of each entry and the “quick list” feature files favorites into an easily accessible file. To ensure that the directory meets the individual needs of each visitor, most entries include contact information, a company description, photos and most importantly, the organization’s “Green Credentials.” Users can also rate each entry with one to five stars.

Modern Green Living was a natural offshoot for Dorfman. As founder and CEO of Vivavi, a provider of modern style, eco-friendly furniture and furnishings, and producer and host of The Lazy Environmentalist radio show (airing weekdays on Sirius Satellite Radio and Lime.com), he is at the forefront of green innovation.

“We’re making it easy and attractive for homeowners or renters to make better choices for the planet,” says Dorfman. “What could be easier than locating a home professional near you who already has the necessary environmental and green building expertise or moving into a home that’s already green? It’s really that simple.”

About Vivavi:

Vivavi develops forward-thinking ventures designed to enable modern green lifestyles. Vivavi’s retail arm offers modern style, eco-friendly furniture and home furnishings. Vivavi’s companion resource, Modern Green Living, enables consumers to find information on green building, newly built green residences and green home professionals throughout the United States and Canada. Vivavi’s media arm centers on The Lazy Environmentalist radio show airing nationally on the Lime Channel of Sirius Satellite Radio and Lime.com and hosted by Josh Dorfman, Vivavi’s founder & CEO. In 2006, Inc. Magazine named Vivavi one of the 50 most intriguing green businesses helping to drive the green revolution.

Green Home Partners Unveil ‘Live Green Chicago’ and Other Fall Programs

Chicago, IL (PRWEB) September 26, 2006

Green Home Partners, Northeast Illinois’ first and only real estate group dedicated to the green home market, announce their schedule of fall programs designed to help educate consumers about why green, what’s green, and where’s green in Chicago.

“Many people in Chicago have heard about green homes,” says Kirk Fox, Illinois’ first certified EcoBroker and one of three Green Home Partners, “but they aren’t always sure what that means or where they can find them. By attending these sessions, consumers will have a much better understanding of the benefits of owning a green home, the features that make them green, and where they can find one in the Chicagoland area.”

The fall program begins with a seminar entitled “What Makes a Home Green?” presented at the Historic Chicago Bungalow & Green Home Expo, Saturday September 30 at the Merchandise Mart, beginning at 10:15 AM. This seminar talks about the characteristics that differentiate a green home from a conventional home and the benefits of owning one. A follow-up session entitled “Is Your Home Green?” given at Whole Foods Market, 3300 N. Ashland Ave beginning at 6:30 PM on October 3, discusses specific ways homeowners can make their current homes greener and healthier. The highlight of the fall program is Live Green Chicago, a social and educational event designed to allow consumers to meet face-to-face with Chicago’s premier green home architects and developers while enjoying drinks and live music in a relaxed and casual atmosphere. It takes place at 6 PM October 12, at the Funky Buddha Lounge, 728 W. Grand Ave.

“Although Chicago leads the country in building green roofs,” says Hans Fedderke, the only LEED-AP realtor in Chicago and another member of Green Home Partners, “the supply of green homes in Chicago lags what is being built in places like Portland, Denver, and Austin. An event like Live Green Chicago can help change that by bringing together, for the first time, those consumers who are serious about owning a green home with suppliers of green homes so they can gauge first-hand the latent demand that exists for this type of housing in Northeastern Illinois.”

At the heart of Live Green Chicago is the annual Gallery of Green Homes—a showcase of Chicago’s most cutting-edge green home developments. “We know of approximately 458 green homes and $ 157 million of green home development either under development or actively seeking financing in Northeastern Illinois and Northwestern Indiana,” says Mark Ahlheim, the third member of Green Home Partners, “and we anticipate that backlog of green homes to grow dramatically over the next few years.” Up to eleven green home developments will be represented at Live Green Chicago.

Green Home Partners strives to educate consumers about the benefits of living green; to help consumers find the architects, builders, and bankers in Chicago who are most adept at designing, building, and financing green; to develop Chicago’s most architecturally interesting, most energy-efficient, and healthiest niche-market green homes; and to set the standard of excellence in marketing green homes across Northeastern Illinois. Kirk, Hans, and Mark work as realtors for Prudential Preferred Properties and have worked together as Green Home Partners since March, 2006. All events are free to the general public, although seating is limited at each venue.

EcoPlum Runs ‘earth day yourself!’, an Environmentally Friendly Campaign with Videos and Photos from Fans and Shoppers

EcoPlum ‘earth day yourself!’ contest

New York, NY (Vocus/PRWEB) April 13, 2011

Today, EcoPlum, the green shopping rewards site for eco friendly products and green living information, launched ‘earth day yourself!’, a campaign and contest, with prizes for photos and videos submitted by its fans and shoppers. The campaign promotes environmentally friendly actions and awareness this month, in conjunction with Earth Day on April 22.    

Through April 30, EcoPlum is accepting photos, videos, and short descriptions from its fans and shoppers, as they engage in activities to appreciate, or clean up, the environment. Screened submissions will be posted on the site for readers to rate. The ratings will continue through May 7, with awards announced on May 11.

Gia Machlin, Founder and CEO of EcoPlum announced the campaign this way, “Earth Day is this month and we want to encourage everyone we know to do something to honor and protect the earth and its limited resources. Contests are fun, but this one has a deeper message of promoting activism, sharing with our communities, and making a difference one step at a time.”

The ‘earth day yourself!’ contest will accept photos and video entries in four categories:

1.    Bonding with Nature focuses on sharing an appreciation of the earth and nature, in outdoor activities, from fly fishing to hiking to sitting alongside a lake.

2.    Spring Greening Our Homes highlights use of eco friendly products, energy efficiency measures, and other ways to green the home.

3.    Greening Our Community highlights environmentally friendly activities outside the home such as planting trees, organizing electronics recycling, introducing compostable dinnerware and utensils to schools and businesses, and more.

4.    Creative Recycling/Upcycling encourages creative imagination and fun in recycling, or upcycling, objects, rather than disposing of them. Recycling is to reuse, while upcycling puts the object to a new, or better, use. Both may be practical or artistic.    

With this announcement, EcoPlum is promoting the campaign on its Facebook page, homepage, Twitter feed, e-mail newsletters, and on partner sites.

Two prizes will be awarded. The Grand Prize winner will receive 2,000 EcoChipz rewards points, worth $ 100, and a second randomly selected winner will receive 500 EcoChipz rewards points. Both awards may be used for green products in the EcoShop, or donations to environmental causes listed on EcoPlum.

‘Green Living Classic Collections’ Offers Mainstream Fashion With An Environmental Conscience

Baltimore, MD (PRWEB) April 24, 2007

This week, Green Living Classic Collections (http://www.greenlivingclassiccollections.com) announced its Grand Opening. A new online store specializing in women’s business attire and other classic style clothing and accessories, GLCC is uniquely dedicated to providing garments and accessories steeped in traditional style, but made of organic or other environmentally friendly materials and processes.

Green Living Classic Collections carries inventory from long-term, well-established manufacturers and suppliers who are known for their quality, environmentally friendly clothing, such as Ecolution and CottonfieldUSA. The online store also features designers who focus on superior quality, traditional style clothing, such as Dash Hemp and Earth Speaks. The store offers a wide range of inventory, including suits, separates, dresses, classic casuals, lingerie, and accessories.

Monica Coleman, an environmental expert who runs the “Let’s Talk Waterways” Program (http://www.letstalkwaterways.com) helped to establish the business. “I am thrilled that more and more textile manufacturers are going ‘Green’ as peoples’ environmental interests grow”, she explains, “but finding environmentally friendly business clothing can be difficult and time consuming.

Green Living Classic Collections (http://www.greenlivingclassiccollections.com/about) not only provides easy access to women’s high quality, environmentally friendly business attire and classic collections, it also serves as a resource of information for the public to learn what it truly means to be an “environmentally friendly” garment.

ExhibitDEAL Goes Green with Flooring

ExhibitDEAL

Santa Monica, CA (PRWEB) November 17, 2007

ExhibitDEAL, a leading provider of trade show displays, trade show flooring, and other trade show accessories, is proud to announce the addition of environmentally friendly trade show flooring to their selection of trade show displays and accessories that can be found on their website at: http:///http://www.exhibitdeal.com .

In light of so many companies going “Green,” NBC most recently aired episodes of their hit shows The Office and 30 Rock, along with others, featuring story lines centered around environmental awareness, the demand for companies both small and large to be more environmentally aware is on the rise. With that in mind, ExhibitDEAL has begun to offer a line of environmentally friendly trade show flooring that is of the same quality expected from the industry leading company, but has a lower impact on the environment as a whole.

“We’re very proud of this product,” Mat Kelly, president of ExhibitDEAL said. “We always want to offer the best product to our customers, but being able to offer trade show flooring that’s environmentally responsible while still being a great addition to a trade show display is a winning situation for us (ExhibitDEAL), our customers, and, most importantly, the environment.” While Mr. Kelly wouldn’t comment on whether there would be other “green” products featured in ExhibitDEAL’s product list, he was quick to point out that they are doing their part to be more eco-friendly while still offering top level products to their customers.

As the public demands that the companies they deal with be more environmentally aware, companies like ExhibitDEAL, NBC, and Universal Studios are responding by producing shows with environmental themes, broadcasting without the use of any unnecessary lights to conserve electricity, or by offering their clients trade show flooring that is of the same high quality that they’re used to, but without the same impact on the environment. It’s believed that companies like ExhibitDEAL, NBC, and Universal are just the first in what will more than likely be many companies that offer environmentally friendly products, services, and entertainment to meet the growing demand.

About ExhibitDEAL

ExhibitDEAL is an industry leading provider of trade show displays, trade show flooring, and accessories such as literature racks and banner stands. Their commitment to not only their customers but to the environment is evident in their expanding line of products that are not only of the highest quality, but present a low impact on the environment.
