Interesting new blog, Sew Green (great name!) by some kick-ass ladies living more environmentally responsible lives.

Sew Green is made up of eleven women who met through the crafting blogging community.

One day last November, on my regular blog, I mentioned wanting to start a blog about consumption. It turned out, some dear crafting blogger friends were also interested in this idea. I think most people in the world want to live more environmentally responsibly, but there are so many obstacles to doing this. Hopefully this blog will be a way for us to remove some of those obstacles for ourselves and each other, by sharing what we’re learning and figuring out who to try to influence {industry people, institutions, politicians} on a grander scale, to affect change.

The first month or so, we’ll be introducing ourselves and sharing some topics we’re interested in. Topics we’re interested in will undoubtedly range from simple (tips on how to stop receiving junk mail), to more complex (how global economics affect environmental issues).

After our initial month, we plan to all research the same one environment/consumption-related topic per month and to share our findings/art/stories/thoughts/ideas around that subject. We’re going to figure this blog out as we go. We hope you’ll join us on our Sew Green journey!
