Sprint Unveils New Green ID App Pack

On Friday, Sprint announced its newest smartphone feature, Green ID Pack, which is available on select Android devices for their customers. The platform provides customers with apps and mobile content that gives them easy access to information on sustainable living, including content from Team Eco Etsy and Green America.

Using the Green ID pack, customers can customize their smartphones with eco-focused apps and widgets in a single download.

The Green ID pack is free to download with Sprint’s Everything Data plan. For more details, including a full description of the Green ID pack’s contents, see Sprint’s press release.

Herban Lifestyle Approved as a Member of Green America’s Green Business Network

I am thrilled! Yesterday I was notified that Herban Lifestyle has been approved as a member of Green America‘s Green Business Network. I have been a huge fan of Green America (formerly Co-op America) for over a decade, and am honored to be amongst the ranks of truly green businesses that have gone through Green America’s rigorous screening process. Among other things, I now get to display the Green America Seal of Approval.

Businesses displaying the Green America Seal of Approval have successfully completed Green America’s screening process and have been approved to be listed as a socially and environmentally responsible business in the National Green Pages™ directory. I am excited to be listed in the Green Pages alongside one of my favorite DC-area Green Business Network businesses, Holeco Wellness MediSpa, which also happens to be an Herban Lifestyle customer (you can purchase Herban Lifestyle products there).

Businesses bearing this seal operate in ways that support workers, communities, and protect the environment, honoring the triple bottom line: people, planet and profit.
