Do you want to live in a future where this planet is still habitable?
Yes, me too! How can we get there? By reading about sustainability!
Some people are writing about it all the time. Who are they?
Bloggers! These are the best green blogs for a better future for all of us!
Green blogs are not about the color
I am not an environmental activist or green blogger myself.
Instead I’d rather tell you where to go to read what’s going on.
Check out these green blogs that really help create a better future.
I’m a reader of some of those for years now, some I discovered via DuckDuckGo, other lists or simply clicking through links.
So it’s not that they use a green WordPress theme or something. These blogs deal with green topics!
Here is the list featuring some of the most important and well known blogs dealing with ecology and a sustainable lifestyle!
Yet it also features some very good blogs far too few people know as of now:
While Treehugger deals with life style and products it has the biggest impact as far I can judge it.
It’s all about green cool since Treehugger appeared in the blogosphere.
Treehugger has been acquired by a large publishing house – Dotdash Meredith – back in 2020.
They also got Mother Nature Network (MNN) while at it and the latter redirects to Treehugger ever since.
It’s sad to see MNN gone but still having Treehugger is actually good news.
It’s not as active as it has been in the past yet it also focuses more on timeless content that gets updated as well.
Inhabitat is similar, focuses a bit more on architecture and prefab houses for example.
After being silent since 2023 it has been apparently revived in April of 25.
The two new articles I can see are too specific for me to be of interest.
So let’s hope Inhabitat returns to its former glory and topic choices.
Grist is also rather a magazine than just a blog but what is a blog these days anyway?
In any case Grist offer high quality coverage of environmental issues.
As of 2025 Grist solely focuses on US politics and most articles have the word “Trump” in them.
It’s of course all bad news for the environment.
That makes Grist almost unreadable for anyone not interested in the Hotel magnate and US president or wanting to get depressed.
Sustainablog is more blog-like and focuses on the most important aspects of sustainability.
It’s about saving the planet, not just consuming a greener way.
Sadly it has been silent in recent years yet if still showcases many evergreen article and tutorials.
Here you can still find the spirit of activism.
The other blogs focus on more specific topics.
CleanTechnica covers environmentally-friendly technology as already the name suggest.
It deals with all kinds of technology, yet recently mostly EV cars and solar energy.
In the past the topics were more varied yet the EV coverage is interesting as well.
AutoblogGreen reports on the latest electric cars and other alternative propulsion methods.
Sadly the dedicated blog has been reduced to a mere tag on the main Autoblog subdomain though.
This has been my go to resource when it comes to EVs so I hope it will stay relevant despite this.
Are you a green blogger?
I am always looking for green blogs to recommend. Just write me @onreact on social media. I use that handle almost everywhere.
LinkedIn is my preferred site as of now so you can reach me there the fastest.
In case you are a green blogger or need support for a campaign you can contact me.
I can at least bring you some visitors via social media. I still have a considerable following here and there.
I have already worked for the Swiss solar energy federation among others.
Do you work for a non profit organization like Greenpeace?
You might want to talk to me or check this SEO for non-profits post of mine!
