    I loved your blog! Very nice, I loved the theme and thought that the writing was excellent. Although I found the articles a little wordy, they still were great and I liked the nice, clean layout.

    I'm sorry but your blog didn't really hit me... some of the articles were interesting, but everything seemed to be taken out of a plain newspaper. There were a couple witty lines here and there, but everything was very wordy and all over the place.

    I salute your mission (as it is almost the same as ours) to help inform and save the world. First I'd like to say that your layout is very crowded and a little confusing, especially with a site map that doesn't work. I appreciate your goal to save power by having a black layout, though. Smart idea. As for the content, it was more for the heavy readers, and we all know how few of those are out there browsing the internet. I would suggest more lists and paragraphs that get to the point, and perhaps some more citations. On the other hand, I found your site perfect for research on topics of Global Warming and I once again happily refer to your site when I need to understand a concept. -Rika

  • The Environmental Blog

    Okay my fellow environmentalist, here's the deal: Your site is very wordy and busy, and that can be detrimental. The background was distracting, and you may be losing some viewers from that and your eclectic layout. Also, it is very news-oriented with no real personality screaming out at the reader. Nothing shouts, "Hey! I'm different than other writers!" and we're all battling for individualism in this world, right? On the plus side, your issues are not exactly the same old deal and were very different and interesting. Like I said before, a little wordy, but sometimes wordy is good. Seven points for a nicely written blog, although the layout, visual appeal, and voice were lacking. Great blog! -Calister F. Wells
