Many of our conscious readers also happen to be iPhone users. If you have an iPhone and are interested in being green, there’s certainly an app for that! Here are a few of our favorites:

GoodGuide, free on iTunes, helps you find safe, healthy and sustainable products, while you shop. Simply scan the barcode of the product and immediately see details ratings for health, environment and social responsibility for more than 65,000 products and companies. GoodGuide provides this information about personal care, household chemical, toy, and food products. GoodGuide’s goal is to help people shop smarter and motivate companies to offer even better products.

Green Genie, $.99 on iTunes, offers more than 100 green projects and tips telling you the environmental benefits and how much money each will save you. The app includes a breakdown of certified green products, links to green websites, an explanation of the different kinds of plastics and their recyclability, list of green organizations, and more.

Green Outlet, $2.99 on iTunes, helps you identify which of your household appliances are costing you the most to run, so you can make informed decision about your electric use. By selecting the types of appliances you use in your home and estimating how many hours of use per day for each, green outlet will predict what your electric bill will be for the month.
