This article contains my reviews of some of the best places to meet single people who share your concerns about the earth, the environment, and sustainable and healthy living.
If you support animal rights, enjoy raw foods, are a vegetarian, believe in locally grown, organic foods, and are environmentally conscious in general, you’re sure to meet like minded people at the following singles websites.
Planet Earth Singles
I love this quote from the PlanetEarthSingles.com home page:
“At PlanetEarthSingles.com, we believe the best relationships are built on complementary lifestyles and compatible beliefs so you can focus on making a difference in the world together, rather than arguing over whether to hug a tree or cut one down!”
PlanetEarthSingles.com was started on Earth Day in 2006. The site was “created by environmentalists for environmentalists.”
PlanetEarthSingles.com connects green singles in multiple ways including local green events, conscious retreats, and more.
10% of the company’s profits are donated to Greenpeace, a company that is dedicated to exposing global environmental problems and promoting solutions.
The company also supports other organizations such as the Sierra Club, the Humane Society, and NRDC (Natural Resources Defense Council).
Perfect Match
PerfectMatch.com isn’t a “green singles only” website, but it does have lots of singles that are committed to living a green lifestyle.
Perfect Match joined with Professor Dr. Pepper Schwartz to create the now famous Duet Total Compatibility System.
It uses a comprehensive, scientific approach to identifying true compatibility. Green and environment-related questions have recently been added to the compatibility system.
The service is so popular that it has received media coverage on Dr. Phil, Dancing with the Stars, LIVE with Regis and Kelly and other programs.
There’s a chance that you might find more matches at PerfectMatch.com than “green” dating sites because the membership base is so large.
Veggie Connection
VeggieConnection.com is not really a “green dating site” per se, but I’m adding it to this page because it seems to fit perfectly.
As the name implies, VeggieConnection is a site for vegetarians, vegans, raw-foodists, and macrobiotic diet followers.
VeggieConnection.com is the top dating site in the “vegetarian dating site” category.
Green Singles
Green Singles started as a paper newsletter way back in 1985. It’s a family-owned, privately held company that is operated by vegetarians.
The GreenSingles.com website was born in 1996.
You can’t become a member of the site unless you’re truly green.
A screening process blocks applicants who don’t show a true interest in green living.
The company says “it’s our job to present you with people who share your interests and values.”
Through the company’s “GreenShare” program, 5% of the profits are shared with non-profit groups that are dedicated to protecting the earth, its people and animals.
