When there is a need, think green.

I am taking a free online course, “Leading Strategic Innovation in Organizations”, through Coursera, conducted by instructor David A. Owens of Vanderbilt University.

The project I am working on is "Stand On your Own", in which I hope to encourage single parents to create to sell Eco-friendly product.  This presentation is what it is all about.



I like it that I am able to include what I have shared on this blog to complete my course project.  So, never let others tell you that what you are doing is not useful if you think it is meaningful.  You never know where the future will lead you to when you are willing to share what you know.

Don't kill! Think green.

What do you think it will take to save livestock on a farm in Kenya from lions?  Bows and arrows or guns?

None of the above.  Pick this up from 13 years old, Richard Turere.  All you need are:

1) five flashlight bulbs
2) a car battery
3) a solar panel

Don't believe me?  Watch this video.



And for his environmentally friendly effort, Richard was offered a scholarship to study at The Brookhouse International School.  How great is that?

It just shows that you don't have to kill your enemies in order to survive.  Just think green.
