What We Do

Greenopia provides consumers with the means to make daily decisions that reduce their impact on the environment. Through our green business directories, product directories, community, news articles, blogs, and tips, we provide the information, in the form of green ratings and rankings, that is necessary to lead a healthy and sustainable lifestyle.

Our Directories

Greenopia's directories guide consumers to the businesses and products necessary to eat, shop, and live green. All listings are independently researched, rated and ranked using 62 unique sets of category-specific criteria, ensuring that each business and product meets precise qualifications. We never accept payment for listings.


Our Ratings

The Greenopia Leaf Ratings allow consumers to assess the overall greenness of a business or product. Four-Leaf Rated listings meet our most stringent criteria while One-Leaf Rated listings meet our minimum qualifying standards. The Greenopia Product Scorecard allows consumers to easily see the specific areas of greenness.


Our Community

Greenopia's community provides a place for people to engage in sharing their favorite listings, meeting other people, sharing their eco-interests, blogging, discussing green topics, and much more. Our newsletter provides a distinct opportunity to stay current with new listings, compelling articles, and exclusive opportunities.

This is followed by a series of glasses of different iced organic teas, usually ending up the evening with a glass of iced chamomile tea so I can "wind down" aka not the climb the walls...
