Article by Ecotourism Kenya

Are you looking for producers or suppliers of "green" products or services for water conservation, sustainable utilization of wind & solar energy, waste management, minimizing energy usage, etc? Do you require items made from recycled or 100% natural material? Do you require expertise in Environmental Impact Assessments & Environmental Audits or hire a consultancy services for tourism- or environment-related projects?  

Look no further!  The Green Directory is a catalogue of a growing number of eco-aware businesses and individuals who have realized their role and responsibility in sustaining the quality of our environment for future generations.  It is a guide to those looking for green products and services in Kenya and contains additional information on Tanzania with future publications aiming to have a broader representation from the East African Community.

Going green implies striving to live an eco-friendly lifestyle.  It is about ensuring that the choices one makes have the least negative impacts on the environment and that they represent the most sustainable way of using available resources.  Going green includes the decision not to buy or use a product if there is another alternative, reducing the quantity of the product that one uses, re-using what can be reused and recycling.  One of the things that get in the way of many who wish to go green is a lack of information, including not knowing the green products and services that are available at any given time.
