Grist’s guide to green iPhone apps 4

News

GreenSpot: Follow the latest environmental headlines from sources like the New York Times, the Associated Press, and Yahoo! News with this app’s topic-specific feeds. If you like its taste in news, the app also hosts a podcast. $1.99 3 stars iTunes

The Green Brief: This app is essentially a collection of green RSS feeds plus a green living tips generator.  The news stream consists of headlines with summaries, but they don’t reliably include links to the full-stories. $2.99 no rating iTunes

Green News Reader: Use this app to aggregate green news feeds from National Geographic, the Environment News Network, GreenBiz.com, and other green sites. $0.99 3 stars iTunes

GreenTechnology:  Tailor your news with this app that specializes in aggregating green-technology news.  $4.99 no rating iTunes

iGreen: With a focus on syndicating blog feeds, this app joins the green-news aggregator fray.  Follow Al Gore’s blog, CNET’s green tech feed,  and CleanTech.com with this app. $0.99 3 stars iTunes

iNewz Green: Follow topic-specific feeds that draw from multiple sources like TheDailyGreen, Planet Green, and Popular Science. Share articles with the integrated email, Twitter, and Del.icio.us features, and read articles in offline mode. $0.99 no rating iTunes

Mission Zero: This AppCraver-recommended app aggregates climate and energy news from all over the web into topic-specific feeds for your iPhone.  Sites like TheDailyGreen contribute to food news and TNR’s The Vine to politics, but beware of sources like jpmorganclimatecare.com—not exactly known for its muckraking climate news. Free 2.5 stars iTunes

If you can only download one: Get the GreenSpot.  Reviewers like the news sources and podcast.
