Green:Design, an Online Reference Tool

Who says focusing on eco-friendly product design can’t make you some green? Not the minds behind Design:Green, who lead a series of workshops meant to dispel the notion that sustainable product development won’t help entrepreneurs grow their businesses. The organization offers seminars that provide designers with strategic, actionable solutions for eco-design, including life-cycle analysis tools, tips for reducing impact, a bibliography of green design, and other materials, sources, and inspiration for making it happen. And now the group has uploaded its “Eco Design Resource Guide” and several other handy tools to its Web site for you to peruse free of charge, so whether you’re a designer looking for tips or a consumer looking to make informed decisions, this site is a great spot for innovation, inspiration, and education.
