Top Green Influencers by FactoryDirectPromos.com
"Creating a sustainable future is quickly becoming an integral part of life in the 21st Century for both consumers and businesses alike. Leading the way to this sustainable future are the green online influencers who not only report on green consumer and business news and trends, but who actually create and disseminate it. Our 2012 Online Green Influencers were chosen based upon their Google page rank, social influence and online community engagement. Although it was difficult to narrow down our list to only 100 Green Online Influencers, this year’s winners each offer not only top green content but also a genuine desire to change the world."
