Big Green Purse is the blog of Diane MacEachern:

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

A best-selling author, successful entrepreneur, sought-after public speaker, and long-time conservationist, she has launched the only company in the U.S. dedicated specifically to transforming women’s environmental concerns into measurable improvements in our quality of life.

Diane encourages women to green the marketplace by choosing products whose use or manufacture offer the greatest environmental benefit. Through her books, articles and speeches she motivates women to take actions that will make a difference. She helps environmental organizations engage more women as members, activists, and donors. She also encourages companies to green their products to appeal to more women consumers.

Diane’s books have reached hundreds of thousands of people with their “you can change the world” messages. The best-selling Save Our Planet: 750 Everyday Ways You Can Help Clean Up the Earth has been featured on national television programs ranging from CNN Headline News to Live with Regis and Kathie Lee to The ABC Network Television Earth Day Special and reprinted in Italy and Japan.


Please go on over and read what Teresa has to say today.

Enjoy!

1. Please do check this one out!
Diane (the blog owner) is not one of "our" group. I cold-contacted her to invite her to participate in the blog tour, and she was VERY excited to do so. This Big Green Purse blog is new for her organization The World Women Want, and it would be great to give her a lot of hits and comments today.

Thanks!

2. Another great post
Green Power!!

"The market can change the status quo overnight, and it can either help or hurt the environment.

For example, when CEOs decide to change their purchasing or investing practices to be more environmentally friendly, it can have an immediate impact on both the environment and how other businesses respond."

Yup. All Democrats ever had to do to get the attention of this bunch of neocons is move their portfolios.

That's a great blog, and I've bookmarked it.
