Here are some go-to sites for environmentally friendly living:

• grist.org: Politics, environment, food … all the news you want in one place.

• The New York Times (www.nytimes.com): See Bitten (http://bitten.blogs.nytimes.com), Well (http://well.blogs.nytimes.com) and Green Inc. (http://greeninc.blogs.nytimes.com).

• Apartment Therapy’s Re-Nest (www.re-nest.com): Not only is it pretty, it’s functional. The site has lots of great articles (and great pictures) on how to green your home — as well as some practical information on other random green topics, like how to reuse bulk store fruit packaging.

• Ecomii (www.ecomii.com): This site includes a section on select cities across the country with a directory of where to find everything from green home goods and services to where to shop and eat, as well as the city’s recycling rules.

• Ideal Bite (www.idealbite.com): Sign up for their daily newsletter and you won’t even have to go looking for eco-friendly tips. They’ll come straight to you.
