Green Living Online: better than ever!

Green Living Online is one year old and we are celebrating with a new look and new features!
Related stories:


We’ve still got all the latest on green trends, products, personalities and issues, in Canada and around the world. But we’ve added an entertainment section and daily blogs from green industry experts.

Erin Schrode, the spokesperson for Teens for Safe Cosmetics, will write the Sustainable Beauty blog about green personal-care products and the cosmetic industry. And food expert Lindsay Evans shares healthy food tips and recipes in her DeLish Bites blog. Meanwhile, online editor Shelagh McNally keeps us up to date with her Green at a Glance blog.


Green Living Magazine will also be offered free online in a digital format -- the first edition is coming in September. And our popular weekly online newsletter returns in August. Be sure to sign up for both.

“The new look and content at greenlivingonline.com reflects the dynamic changes taking place in the Canadian marketplace as the green economy takes hold. We plan to be the source for all things green and Canadian,” said Laurie Simmonds, President of Green Living Enterprises.

Let us know what you think about our new look! We love hearing from you.

Pssst… do you like this blog?Not that I expect much out of this, but, you know, it’s nice to be loved. The 2008 Weblog Awards has started so, if you want to pick this one as one of your favs in a specific category, I won’t stand in your way. But seriously, I encourage you to vote for the blogs [...]
What about the oil sands? Harper’s goal of 90% emission-free electricity by 2020 not so ambitiousPrime Minister Stephen Harper, recently re-elected, gave his Throne Speech today and reiterated the Conservative party’s campaign promise of having 90 per cent of Canada’s electricity come from “non-emitting” sources by 2020. The media have characterized this as “ambitious,” and while it seems so on the surface, it’s not so challenging when you look at [...]
Obama talks, I smileFor those who thought he would back down after being elected… think again.   a2a_linkname="Obama talks, I smile"; a2a_linkurl="http://www.cleanbreak.ca/2008/11/18/obama-talks-i-smile/";
VRB Power terminates most of staff, calls outlook grimVRB Power’s vanadium flow-battery technology might have held potential as a utility-scale energy storage system, but in the end the Vancouver-based company has failed to execute and is on the road to insolvency. The company released a press release this afternoon announcing that it has been unsuccessful in seeking a merger, sale or some kind [...]
Zero-interest loans to help Toronto MASH sectors get efficientThe City of Toronto has launched two funds that will make it easier for schools, churches, hospitals and other not-for-profit sectors to reduce their carbon footprint. The $42 million Toronto Energy Conservation Fund and the $20 million Toronto Green Energy Fund, created as part of the city’s climate action plan, make available zero-interest loans for projects [...]
Why the future of wind power looks better and betterMy Clean Break column today takes a look at a few startups that are trying to make wind farms more reliable and productive. Most of the companies I’ve mentioned in the past — Whalepower (blade design that mimics humpback whale flippers); Premium Power (utility-scale zinc-bromide battery storage cheap enough to couple with wind turbines/farms); and [...]
Talk of bursting cleantech bubble getting tiredThe mainstream business press, always eager to say “We told you so” and “history will repeat itself,” appears quite eager to announce the demise of cleantech and all the associated buzz it carries. The bubble is bursting, they say. The return to cheap oil will kill the green movement, they declare. They point to some weakling companies in the cleantech sector [...]
Morgan Solar shows tremendous promiseI have a feature today in the Toronto Star about local solar power innovator Morgan Solar, which has developed an approach to concentrating photovoltaics that keeps manufacturing costs low and efficiency high. The design, based on a proprietary optic developed by company founder Jean Paul Morgan, could prove to be a big breakthrough in the [...]
Green jet fuel making headway, closer than thoughtThose who read this blog know from past posts that I support development of biofuels as one of many climate-change solutions, but strictly conditional on how it’s made and how it’s used. Cellulosic ethanol can play an important role when we move to plug-in hybrids that still require gasoline, though to a much smaller extent. And, [...]
Giving wind turbines a “spider sense”Okay, the “spider sense” part is a bit of a stretch, but being a Spider Man fan I had to throw it in. Actually, what I’m talking about is a new type of LIDAR (Light Detecting and Ranging) device that’s designed to integrate into the nacelle of a wind turbine. The laser system, developed by [...]
