What can we say? We really thought our blogs should be a bit greener? As of today, we're going to buy enough Green Tags, also called renewable energy credits, from the Bonneville Environmental Foundation, to offset the environmental impact from our hosting and computer operations for the coming year.
Green tags are an investment in the production of renewable energy sources through wind and solar power. Using clean renewable energy reduces emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming. By purchasing green tags, Blogpire Productions hopes to lessen our dependence on burning fossil fuels.
We also hope you'll help out as well. Individuals as well any business can buy Green Tags. Please visit the Bonneville Environmental Foundation and purchase Green Tags to offset your use of fossil fuels.

Blogpire Productions, a collection of 14 lifestyle blogs ranging from Really Natural (www.reallynatural.com) to Single Serve Coffee (www.singleservecoffee.com), announces that it will buy enough green tag renewable energy credits to offset the environmental impact from its hosting and computer operations for the coming year.
(PR WEB) June 20, 2006 -- Blogpire Productions, a collection of 14 lifestyle blogs ranging from Really Natural (www.reallynatural.com) to Single Serve Coffee (www.singleservecoffee.com), announces that it will buy enough Green Tags, also called renewable energy credits, from the Bonneville Environmental Foundation, to offset the environmental impact from its hosting and computer operations for the coming year.
More renewable energy use means less fossil fuel use, less air pollution and a more sustainable future for us and our planet. The production of traditional electricity, which relies on the burning of fossil fuels, is cheaper than producing energy from renewable sources, but it doesn't take into account the long-term costs of air pollution and health problems, which result when carbon dioxide and other pollutants are emitted into the air.
Green tags are an investment in the production of renewable energy sources through wind and solar power. Using clean renewable energy reduces emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming. By purchasing green tags, Blogpire Productions hopes to lessen our dependence on burning fossil fuels.
"Doing our part to reduce the environmental impact of our computer operations fits with our personal interests and helps us set the tone for how we are going to run our business." says Jay Brewer, founder of Blogpire Productions.
The Blogpire and the people who write for it care deeply about the environment. From the Really Natural blog (www.reallynatural.com), which covers organic foods and household items, to GPS Lodge (www.gpslodge.com), which explores the world with the help of global positioning systems, and Single Serve Coffee (www.singleservecoffee.com), which regularly reviews and supports organic and Fair Trade coffee, the Blogpire's group of bloggers are committed to the environment and reducing their impact on the environment.
"We are all interested in preserving our environment, so running our blogs on renewable energy was the right thing for us to do," says Brewer. "More renewable energy use means less fossil fuel use, less air pollution and a more sustainable future for us and our planet."

We're excited to be featured in the article, " Consumer-Product Blogs Spark a Web Empire" on the Wall Street Journal's Startup Journal site.
The entrepreneur: Jay Brewer, 34 years old, is a former Web designer and product designer from Arlington, Mass.
The business: Mr. Brewer is founder of Blogpire Productions, a group of 14 consumer-product oriented blogs. Each blog focuses on a specific niche category such as single-serve coffee products, shaving products or poker products, and generates revenue through direct advertisers, Google Ad Sense and Web affiliate programs.
The idea: During the late 1990s and early part of this decade, Mr. Brewer worked at Abuzz.com, a portal bought by The New York Times Co. in 1999, and later at Affinnova Inc., a Boston-based consumer-products company, where he helped design the Dunkin' Donuts' coffee bag, he says.
