BigGreePurse: Save Time, Shift Money, Make a Difference

BigGreenPurse is a site that suggests ways for American women to shop 'green'. The links on the site are for American products of course, but the idea to empower women by suggesting they spend their money on green products, is certainly something for everyone - everywhere - to aspire to.

The founder of the Big Green Purse site, Diane MacEachern, "is passionate about empowering women to use their marketplace clout to protect the environment."

Diane also has a blog, Diane's Big Green Purse, with the tagline, "Making our money matter for a greener, cleaner, safer world."

When I explored the BigGreenPurse site, I discovered they also have a link to a sister site called The World Women Want which "helps women, their children and their families live healthier, safer, more rewarding lives." It's a very good site too - although it also links to just American sites.
