National Geographic is known for its compelling articles on the wonders of the ancient and modern world – and also its photographs of bare chested women (the ones that brought a blush to the cheeks of more than one generation of kids.).

Now, National Geographic can also be known as a resource for green living – they’ve launched a new magazine, Green Guide, which they claim is for everyday folks, not “enviromanics.” (ummm…thanks, that makes me feel great about myself).

They’ve also created a series of online quizzes that test one’s knowledge on things like saving gas and plastic recycling, and allow one to find out which “eco-celebrity” they most resemble.  Two of the quizzes are food related: Food Safety and Get to Know Your Inner Organic Foodie, so if you’re in the mood for a little wholesome, nerdy fun (beats reading another story about the recall – or staring warily at your hamburger), take a few minutes to test your food savvy.
