Before they rot, let's make salad.
Don't leave that leftover can of tuna in the fridge. By the time you remember that you still have it there, it is probably no longer safe for consumption. What a waste.

Trees. Why keep them?
This is a touching slideshow to share with those who have yet learn to appreciate trees.
You can easily find seeds and seedling around trees in parks and along roads. If it is allowed, pick them up and bring them home to grow in pots. Grow as many as you can then give them away.
One may well turn out to be someone's best companion for life if not in yours.

Printing? Go green!
Did you see Rosario Dawson plays Emily Posa in the movie "Seven Pounds". No, I am not going to write a movie review but what I noticed there was the antique printer that operates manually.
It had me thinking; going automatic makes people more wasteful often times. Let us start with when printers run on electric power and can spurn out tons of pages at a time. What are the consequences?
The more you print
the lower the printing rate
The lower the printing rate
the more you choose to print
The more paper printed
the more trees cut
The more you have of the same
The less you would appreciate
what's there...
I know. My "poetic" ranting is not going to move anyone to run on manual again. But if you cannot opt to go electronic to communicate with your consumers, consider using suppliers who think green in their processes. And since we are talking about printing are there certified "green" printers"?
Yes! There is Bacchus Press. And how green will they go?
1) They plan jobs to minimize electricity use = less fossil fuels used.
2) Their paper are from "Forest Stewardship Council (FSC)" certified companies = well-managed forests that adhere to strict environmental standards.
3) They recycle and reuse paper and other supplies whenever possible.
Definitely some steps that you too can pick up in your own businesses.

Protect your investment. Go green.
If the houses in your neighbourhood are not selling well, that is bad. It can only mean that you have made a bad investment in your home.
You will have to continue living in that house or consider selling at below the price you have expected. But before you have to sell at a loss, take a walk to the neighbourhood park.
Is this what you have expected to see and smell?
What is that doing in the park?
Start counting how many of such dump sites you can see there.
Now think! Would any potential buyers consider living in such a neighbourhood where pollution from burning garbage is part of the package?
Time to take action with your neighbours to protect your investment. Syntony Quest shares with you how you can create a green team to work things out.

Tetra Pak? 100% recyclable.
I have shared with you how I have made use of the Tetra Pak packaging I have collected after my children's birthday party.
Today I have discovered from watching a documentary on the efforts to go green in Sau Paulo, that the waste product after recycling paper and aluminum foil out of them can be used to manufacture roof.
You can read the recycling process for aluminum and the production process for roof off websites of Tetra Pak.
But roofs out of used packaging? Are they durable? Check them out in this video.
Hmmmm... It's time to look at Tetra Pak packaging waste more seriously.
