Concerned for the Environment


Although there is a general agreement that our fossil fuel based society has an undesirable impact on our environment, the migration to more Earth Friendly alternatives has been fraught with ineptness.

It is a long road to replace Oil, the current practices around the world have very little impact on Oil uses...what is needed is a concerted effort that includes the impacts on economies and social priorities and a defined road map.

What we will endeavor to post in here is research and findings on companies that have started the work on changing.

The parts of the move need to work together.  For example, it is great that there is so much movement into healthy, organic foods, but the packaging of those foods still, for the most part, are based on Oil base plastics, long growth woods products and harmful labeling inks.

So why would we not integrate the organic food industries with the bio-plastic and alternative fiber/inks industry?

Why would short term fibers (Hemp for example) not be used by the organic food industries for packaging and product display?

We need to form a consorted effort, have realistic time-frames and measurable results to migrate from one source of Energy/raw resources to the next.

The exchange of ideas that I am looking for, is who else is working, or would like to work, to improve the effectiveness in moving to a better way of living.

Here are some companies that I have been looking into:














What to do next...start by researching these corporations, find out what we can about each one and get involved in the exchange of information and ideas.
