As we turn over the new leaf that is a new year, we have the opportunity to dream big of what's to come in green design and what sustainable steps our world will take to make it a better place for our families. We asked some of our favorite green designers and bloggers to share their predictions for 2011. We love that they are all decidedly hopeful, empowering consumers and seeing more healthy choices available for our families. Read on to see what Healthy Child, Healthy World's Danielle Friedland, Natalie Zee Drieu of Craft, Small for Bigs' Mari Richards and more see for the future of 2011.
