Green Prophet Cooperation Circle, a group of environmental journalists and bloggers based in the Middle East, has published a new guide for green bloggers with a grant from the URI Environmental Satellite. Barefoot Bloggers: Write to Save the Planet is edited by Karen Kloosterman, an award-winning journalist and blogger who started the CC’s environmental news website, www.greenprophet.com, in 2007. The guide includes chapters by bloggers from the Sierra Club, the Huffington Post, GreenTech Media and more, and covers writing for religious, non-profit and mainstream audiences alike.
“This is a practical guide to growing a sustainable, green blog,” wrote Kloosterman, “but with tips on how to write for search engine optimization, how to make money and how to embrace ‘co-optition’ it is a practical hands-on guide for any emerging blogger.”
URI will receive 10 percent of profits for all guides sold, and 50 percent for guides purchased through the URI website. Click here to order a copy.
