Journal Your Journey

This month, we launched a new blog for anyone to document their experiences of trying to live more sustainably. We've named it Green Life Journal. Whether you're an old-schol pro, or newbie just putting a toe in the water, this is where you can put up your story of recent adventures in green living. You'll likely even get some useful feedback and advice from your fellow journal-mates. While News From The Pod is Bean Product's newsletter, which we send out to our fans, Green Life Journal is meant to be a public space, where the folks we admire can tell us about their trials and triumphs in living a better lifestyle.
