From Guest Blogger Angie Mansfield: Who is Using Google+ to Support the Green Movement?
Green initiatives are picking up steam as people around the world become more and more concerned with their environment, and with taking care of it.
Many companies and organizations have taken their message to social media, including Google Plus, to reach a wider audience.
Though they’ve achieved varying degrees of success, these companies are making an effort to change the world, one post at a time.
Here are a few of their stories: (more…)
In days gone by, fashions were timeless and clothes were made to last. Nowadays, fads are passing, clothes are extremely cheap and the realities of our disposable wardrobe are grim. In this regard, the self-proclaimed eco-friendly fabrics are not the only reason of making “green garments”, if you practice “sustainable fashion”, the information has reached you that where these clothes come from, who manufactures them and what is the process that make them eco-friendly. 
Many timber window manufacturers are moving into the future by building timber windows that are environmentally friendly as well as aesthetically suitable for old and new buildings, regardless of the window shape and size. There are many advantages to using timber windows which are manufactured to environmentally friendly standards.
Are college graduates switching their white-collar ambitions for green-collar ones?
Although life on earth could not subsist without water, the waste of this precious commodity causes many environmental problems. Worldwide, millions of people do not have easy access to safe, clean water, yet in first-world countries, few people think twice about getting water from the tap.
It appears that planet Earth is on its way to its third implementation of CAES (compressed air energy storage) – one of a handful of different technologies that warehouses off-peak energy production and makes it available for times of greater load. This concept, of course, will eventually be important if our society is to amp up the amount of variable resources (solar and wind) that it integrates into its grid mix. 
If you think that most American kids today lack the work ethic and intellectual curiosity that they had in generations past, you’ll get no argument from me. But if you believe that all young people share that deficiency, you’re 100% wrong.
Running a business (whether a small, medium or large sized venture) is hard and complicated enough and has a wide range of challenges. We’re talking about challenges which if left unchecked can make or break a company and naturally take up the entire time and resources of higher-level management.
I have to say that I love my colleague Jon Lesage’s Green Auto Market Digest. He shows a profound understanding of the industry, and brings tons of unique and valuable insights that most people miss.
Apparently, there are many business models associated with the green energy movement, one of which is simply to ask for donations for causes that make no apparent sense, like “Renewable Energy Research & Training Inc.”
