http://www.greenprophet.com/author/tafline-laylin/Green Prophet will be scouting out stories in Tunisia so give us a shout if you want your project featured on our site.

Heads up to our green-minded readers in Tunisia: Green Prophet is coming into town and we want to meet you! We’re heading to Tunis on Tuesday and will be on the look out for organic or local restaurants, awesome green building projects, eco-art, and other sustainable initiatives. Are you the owner of an eco-lodge that needs a review or a chef who needs a guinea pig?

If so, give us a shout, and we’ll come and check you out. In the meantime, take a quick look at The Bedouins – a wonderful group of creative young people who are transforming Tunisia one tagged wall at a time, and this awesome eco-lodge that we reviewed in the days before Jasmine. And finally, here are 5 stories that point to a freer, greener Tunisia. We can’t wait to be there in person!

Have a fabulous weekend, and we hope to see you next week!

As a tour leader who led “eco-friendly” camping trips throughout North America, Tafline soon realized that she was instead leaving behind a trail of gas fumes, plastic bottles and Pringles. In fact, wherever she traveled – whether it was Viet Nam or South Africa or England – it became clear how inefficiently the mandate to re-think our consumer culture is reaching the general public. Born in Iran, raised in South Africa and the United States, she currently splits her time between Africa and the Middle East. Tafline can be reached at tafline (at) greenprophet (dot) com.

How you create green steel on a blockchain

0
The thing about raw materials is that once they are melted down, you can't prove the source of the material. Same is true with gold, cucumbers and even forged products that look the same as the real thing. When it comes to steel, and how we produce it, it has a massive carbon problem. What's happening in Japan right now could change how we think about heavy industry and climate action.
