About Us

Paula Mitchell-Bentley

Paula is the driving force and author of Green Colored Glasses.  She can be contacted at paula@greencoloredglasses.ca for questions, ideas, comments, review opportunities, etc.  She is the working mother of  3 — a newborn, a preschooler and a teenager and wants to leave the planet in the best possible condition for her kids.  Her main focus in life is her family.  She believes that living green is a lifestyle, not just an idea.  Paula thinks that everyone can live a greener life through a series of tiny steps.  It doesn’t have to be one giant leap — just tiny steps towards improvement by many people can really make a huge impact on a global scale.

She is intrigued with the idea of upcycling art, how a change in perspective can take an object from the trash pile and move it into the treasure pile.  She is also very interested in sustainable living for average families and simple ways to live greener lives.  She wants to teach her children environmental responsibility and respect for the planet.

Previously, Paula has written on Green UpgraderTriondHelium and numerous other sites.  She also has a day job doing technical writing.

Mark Bentley

Mark is the guy behind the sceens who keeps the site running.  Usually Mark is to busy keeping the server happy, tweaking the site or doing site promotion to actually write much.  Given that he is a Comp Sci major and not and English Major, maybe this is a good thing for all involved.

Previously, Mark has written for TriondSquidoo , HubPages, Helium, Bukisa and several other sites.  Now he mainly focuses on developing, promoting and maintaining several websites including:

    I am trying to find an environmentally-friendly RV to rent. Your article on Eco-Friendly RV Camping stated that there were many out there to choose from. I’ve tried “eco-friendly rv rentals, green rv rentals, environmentally-friendly rv rentals, and your link in the article to Camping World. I called them and they did not even know what I was talking about. If you have more information on where I can find such an RV I’d really like your help.

    Thank you.

    Hi Paula and Mark,

    I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to inform you about a new, not-for-profit project that needs your help. The High on Life book is a collection of short stories about hope, change and leadership written by young leaders from across the world. More information can be found on our website, thehighonlifebook.org The book was just launched last week and the High on Life team has just begun a book tour across Canada and will be in Calgary by the end of today. After having researched blogs, it became clear that you have quite a following! We need your help in getting the word out and getting people at our events. This is our schedule in Calgary:

    Monday, August 16
    Kawa Espresso Bar
    7:00pm

    Tuesday, August 17
    Higher Ground Cafe
    1:00pm

    Oolong Tea House (McKenzie)
    6:00pm

    It would be fantastic if you could join us and if you could also send out a message (e-mail, text, phone, etc) to your followers, friends, family – anyone who might at all be interested.

    Thanks very much for your help in advance!

    Best,

  4. Hello,
    I was wondering if I could send you a sample of one of my 100% organic cotton reusable gift bags, and if you like it, I’d love to discuss doing a giveaway.

    Thanking you in anticipation.
