How it started

We began to realize that ecological disasters and other disruptive events halfway around the world are actually quite interlinked with our own lives, and that the best way to help is to start with ourselves. We began to look for ways to live more sustainably here in Prague, and in February 2015, we launched our site.

What is our goal?

Greenglasses is about empowering individuals to make changes to their own lives because this is something we are all most able to control. We want to show people that greener alternatives do exist, even in Prague.  Next we would like to improve our site's search filters, create a green map and add a calendar of green events.

Details

Greenglasses is a guide to sustainable city living that shows where to find locally-made, eco-friendly, second-hand, DIY, low-waste and other greener products, services and locations in Prague. It includes a directory of green and local businesses, and a blog.

... And then some

We also want to prove that a greener life is not just for hippies!

Who?

We are Jenny Day and Aneta Hebrová, an Austrian-American-Swiss and a pure Czech, both living in Prague. After graduating from University, Jenny in neuroscience/psychology and Aneta in economics, we both spent several years working for corporations. We began to realize the pros and cons of  globalization, consumerism and corporate life, and decided to change our way of life. Sitting in Cafe Louvre one winter evening in 2014, we decided to create Greenglasses together.

Why are we doing this?

It only takes one look at a newspaper to see that our world is facing crises on multiple fronts: environmentally, socially and economically. While modernity has brought great progress to human society, this progress is balancing dangerously against ever more apparent costs, including pollution, lifestyle disease, rising inequality and declining diversity. We believe over-consumption is a major root cause behind many of the world’s problems. And we realize that we are part of it... However, changing habits isn't easy, and we knew a lot of research would be needed to find out the "truth" behind the products and services we consume. We created the site because we thought other people could also benefit from this information. Ultimately, we think local movements can play a big role in gradually shifting our society towards more sustainable habits of consumption.
