Saving Water, Saving Energy Blog Featured Among Top 10 Best in the 'Energy' Ecoblogosphere

River Network's Saving Water, Saving Energy blog is humbly featured in a new list of the top 10 best in the 'energy' Ecoblogosphere, alongside some of the eco-focused blog greats.

In a list of 'Best of the Ecoblogosphere' put together by the Ecocentric, the official blog for the sustainable food, water and energy programs of the GRACE Communications Foundation; River Network's Saving Water, Saving Energy blog is featured among other blogs such as New York Times 'Dot Earth,' E2 Wire, Scientific American, NRDC Switchboard, and Yale Environment 360. Ecocentric compiled three 10-blog-lists for the categories Energy, Food and Water, and we are truly honored to be included on such a list.

While we'd hate to lose our faithful readers to other websites, there are some great blogs featured in Ecocentric's list that are well worth checking out. Here is the entirety of Ecocentric's 'Best of the Blogosphere' Energy and Water lists:
