What: It’s just another environmental blog, launched by three college roommates form Harvard who discovered their eco-alteregos during their junior year abroad in Paris. But it’s NOT just any old blog. This one combines eco with chic and comes up with an online magazine that shows how young people with passion, purpose and attitude can use the web to bring pop culture smarts, humor and entertainment to the green movement. Al Gore may have more influence with his books, movies and fancy KeyNotes; Beanstockd has way more fun.
Nominated for: Purpose








I LOVE BEANSTOCKD
Beautiful web site with wit and charm.
The idea of the site is completely original. I love it.
I’m addicted to this site!!! Innovative concept, amazing execution. Love it.
If Beanstockd were around in 1983, they’d be an AM radio station and they’d be talking about me, William Devane.
Beanstockd makes it easy to care about the environment.
flawless
coolest company on the list
love this site!
The most amazing company ever!!!
Beanstockd is a fantastic site with none of those annoying spelling and grammar mistakes that plague other blogs!
Beanstockd gets to the point and is fun to read!

I liken this year’s crop of gamechangers to the 1964 Academy Award nominees for Best Picture. You have your widespread favorites that appeal to the majority (read: idiots); in the gamechanger race this would obviously be Twitter; and in ‘64 it was Mary Poppins. Then you have the commercial-darling-frontrunner with the strong female lead, backed by the “industry”. The gamechanger being The Huffington Post, the Best Pic nominee being My Fair Lady. But finally, you have the intellectual dark horse that confronts a significant cultural issue with revolutionary wit and deft prose. Rarely does this pedigree lead to contemporary awards, but remember Beanstock’d, history will ultimately judge you the winner, as it has Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb.
great!
Keep it going Girls… we got your back!

i love beanstockd
The site’s really sharp in their style and original in content. This team has a much grander vision than “just another environmental blog” …..
great site — great concept
clever.
forgot to add my stars.
Beanstockd is a fantastic idea. As an advocate for green building and sustainable architecture I’m glad there is a new innovative way to get the word out.
I’ve heard good things about it.
What a wonderful, insightful site! Kudos to the founders and all their hard work to really impact the future.
Cheers,
Beanstockd is an awesome project that combines the best of technology and a necessary social good.
Website is amazing; the mission even better! Keep up the good work!!
Woo!
Beanstockd rocks.
Give Beanstockd a 5 star rating!
great writing
Beanstockd is on my regular rotation of sites that I go to while I am on my 30 minute lunch break at work. In this order I visit a random porno site, then another random porno site, Beanstockd, porno site, porno site, and finally my email.
The comments section in Beanstockd can get quite volatile, and hilarious. I really appreciate postings by Bacon Bits. They are very well written.
Sarah Zashin Jacobson is TERRIFIC,
thank you.
Beanstockd is great!
man this shiz is awesome!
wooo
This website is great!!
mmm green
beanstockd is great!
Love it!!!
yahoo!
I’ve got beanstockd bookmarked. And I never bookmark.
Excellent website
encourages and educates “green habits”
Love Beanstockd!
Beanstockd’s humor, sarcasm, and on-point commentaries are entertaining and perfectly relevant to this generation, as the global eco-welfare is reaching a crisis point, not ten years from now, but right now. The site reaches out to anyone interested in current events and substitutes the dry, fact-based approach that has plagued the green movement for decades with interesting, fresh ideas for becoming more environmentally savvy. Among all of the groups running for this award, Beanstockd stands alone in challenging our society for change, particularly pushing celebrities and influential people to become more environmentally thoughtful in their professional and personal lives, thus quietly encouraging the role models of this generation to use their influence for the green good and to live for a cause greater than themselves. Now that’s innovative.
Personally, if you want to make your use of the internet more purposeful and a whole lot more enjoyable, include Beanstockd amidst your email and facebook checking.
Mr. Delacroix, not only is it remarkable that a 19th century French Romanticist such as yourself is reading Beanstockd, it is an honor to share this forum for expressing my adoration of the glorious web log known as Beanstockd. While you prefer to liken this contest to the 1964 Academy Awards, I prefer to compare this year’s crop of ‘Game Changers to historical automobiles. Whereas Twitter is a gaudy, gasoline devouring stretch Hummer limousine, Beanstockd is a Rolls Royce with teak wood paneling and a custom-installed hydrogen engine. The Huffington Post? That ride ain’t nuttin’ but a hooptie.
Beanstockd is so hot right now.
Great website
Insightful and fun
Awesome idea! Go Beanstockd!
This is a great site!
great idea and a great site!!
Terrible UI, I cannot stand the look of this site.
Love it!
Got stuck using the site. No direction. Looks like a bunch of drunk college kids who think they know about the environment put it together.
you know i love it, love it
Attempt to be far more hip than the writers seem to be able to pull off.
Woot!
@beansucked: ‘drunk college kids’ just elected the president of the united states (or did you not catch that on your sober news source). get with the times. beanstockd is the change ticket for the environmentalism we grew up with that got us in this mess.
one of the few sites that actually makes me laugh out loud. in the office. thanks for selling me out to my coworkers, beanstockd.
amazing

love beanstockd
i quite like this site
As kin to the writer known as Bacon Bits, I feel you should know that his vernacular would be equal to that of a remedial second grader were it not for my tutelage. You’re welcome, Beanstockd.
Love the site
Love the site
Looking forward to more good things from Beanstockd.com
Sup, y’all! Bacon Bits…that’s my cousin. He always be goin to spots like Tenjune and 1Oak, but he don’t get in unless I go.
Great Concept Beanstockd
Good stuff!
Bacon Bits, isn’t even that eco-friendly, everybody. He tries to act like he loves the planet, but the last time we hung out all he did was brag about how BIG his carbon footprint was.
Oh I’m so proud of Bacon Bits and his cute little friends and their HILARIOUS web site. He used to have such a big appetite. Now, he won’t eat my dumplings.
He says he only eats things made by his personal chef, some lady named Rexy Tran. At least she’s Asian.
I’ve known the team behind Beanstockd for many years and can guarantee that this is a very talented, creative, dedicated and passionate group of young adults. They’ve found a fresh, effective approach to educating America’s young generation about environmental issues. My teenage daughters are religious readers and so am I!
I love beanstockd almost as much as I like stealing my brother’s security blanket. I keep telling him if he’d get an environmentally friendly one I would leave him alone.
Yay Beanstockd! Buy me this for Christmas in exchange for my loyalty! haha just kidding, y’all! Love ya!
Thank you for all you’re doing to inform our generation.
I really enjoy the political posts from IK. Keeps me informed on current issues and what’s going on in DC, which affects the rest of the country and world.
Beanstockd is awesome
oops! forgot to vote
