I love Facebook, and a lot of our local activist & green groups are super active there - our Transition Town, free market, potluck group, seed swaps, clothing exchanges, and Occupy groups all share events & updates that way.

Also without Facebook I never remembered anyone's birthday, so that's helpful too.

I've found FB, Twitter and blogging to be such a great resource for connecting with like-minded individuals, uncovering green resources, and sharing green information. Forget mainstream media when you want to know about something green! Just hit the Internet. :) Nice post.

I honestly have had some of the best FB posts showing up recently. While I've been into the whole "greener" lifestyle for sevearl years, this week demonstrated to me that it's truly going mainstream. As much as I know it's unhealthy and non-green, I still use regular creamers. My post about it, raised quite the response about how there are healthier options. The fact that I was getting "schooled" by others I never expected to go the "green" route, totally made my entire week! I'm also noticing that Pinterest is becoming a place where more and more "green changes" are being shared.....

I don't use FB much -- I'm impressed that it's such a green resource for you!

I'm going to be completely honest and tell you that 80% of my green/natural friendships are internet based. In a way, it's ok. I'm not cramming in 7 playdates in a week and I can email my friends responses while I'm nursing at 3am. But there are times when I do truly long for more local naturalminded friendships. However, it should be said that by my constant status postings and link sharings, I've started to expand my 20% and find more and more mamas in my area who don't want to be slaves to consumerism. So in my mind, Facebook is one of the best "green" resources out there!
