GreenAnySite.com and Lucky Startups

One of my absolutely favorite sites to keep track of cool social startup ideas is Lucky Startups, which has video interviews with a variety of different types of founders. The idea behind the site is that every startup deserves a platform to get their vision out, but that its hard to capture the attention of advisers, investors, and employees. By giving a forum to a lot of great ideas that are, for the moment, little more than ideas, Lucky Startups is providing an incredible valuable service.

They posted a video today with an org that caught my eye called GreenAnySite.com. GreenAnySite.com is an Israeli startup that channels the "affiliate fees" that e-commerce sites pay the other websites that refer clients to them towards environmental good. Its a simple, great idea that's worth learning more about.

Nathaniel Whittemore is the founder of Assetmap. Previously he was the founding director of the Northwestern University Center for Global Engagement.
