About Us - Green and environmentally friendly websites recycled to make life easier and greener

How it started

A Dozen Other Sites.Com started out as exactly that: a dozen, other websites that might be of interest to you;

Well that's how it started out.

But the more we looked the more we found.

But we still loved the name

So we've stretched the definition of a dozen a little, but all in a good cause.

Our purpose

Recycling is an interesting and necessary concept and it's what we're doing here; We recycle information and websites; and we match them up so that you can access them easily.

It's not just another online marketplace, although it will certainly provide you with purchasing options. But by providing articles of interest and linking them to sites with related products we hope we will enlighten a broader audience to the issues of the day and channel that audiences purchasing power to more sustainable resellers.

The purpose of a dozen other websites started with the vision of products being delivered just once. We read about supply chain savings and wanted to reduce the impact of distribution and make it easier for informed consumers to find green and ethical products. That in turn makes their life easier & greener.

Everyone's actions can have a positive impact on our shared environment so by making sensible and ethical buying decisions we can influence what ultimately comes to market and how it gets there. We hear a lot spoken of the customer being king. Well let's use that power.

There has been a spectacular growth year by year in the organic, fair-trade and green markets as people realize that their actions can help to improve their own lot and that of the planet. Therefore we have created a dozen other sites and our aim is to provide you with information on green related topics and to help you to find green, organic, fair trade and ethical suppliers of everyday products & services

Articles and Suppliers are listed according to category of interest; you'll find a brief description of what they provide and a categorization of their bona fides.

The website is free to use and you do not have to register. All products can be bought online and delivered directly to your door, saving you time and effort, whilst cutting down on traffic congestion, the cost of distribution and pollution.

We think it makes sense

Please have a look around ……………………………………………….

We support

We support a charitable trust called People and Planet so every time you purchase using a dozen other websites they will share in the proceeds as part of the funds generated through our website will be donated to this environmental charity.

We are all aware of climate change and carbon emissions and much of the coverage relates to climate and weather but we often overlook the effects of and the effects on population.

People and Planet provides a global review and internet gateway into the issues of population, poverty, health, consumption and the environment. It is published by Planet 21, an independent non-profit organisation and a registered British charity recognised by the United Nations

A Dozen Other Sites.Com was founded upon principles of fair trade and ethics. By reinvesting 25% of our profits to support a charity such as People & Planet we hope to improve education around the world and through that, improve the Environment.
