ChicoBag founder Andy Keller on landfills, Bikram Yoga and his beef with plastic

Wed, 11 Jun 2008 16:32:45 -0400

There is no shortage of entrepreneurs inspired by the movie Wall Street or the stories of Sam Walton or Steve Jobs. I recently had the opportunity to interview Andy Keller, whose inspiration is a little more, shall we say, down to Earth.

CA -- Tell us about the origins of ChicoBag.

AK -- I used to sell software for an enterprise software company down in the Bay Area. I ended up getting laid off when the company was bought out by a company in the UK. The community and lifestyle in Chico (California) really appealed to me, so it was important...

Treehuggers to descend on Montreal

Fri, 06 Jun 2008 11:43:44 -0400

More than 165 exhibitors and 35,000 visitors are expected to descend on Montreal's Old Port for three days beginning June 13th, to share ideas about living more sustainably.

The "Salon national de l'environnement" (SNE) was developed out of a citizens’ initiative in 2006. The event looks at the current challenges to the environment and offers visitors concrete solutions. The event describes as its objective "to make visitors aware of today’s environmental challenges, while proposing solutions and tools for people to have a better understanding and to encourage beha...

Quebec and Ontario showing leadership with cap-and-trade program

Thu, 05 Jun 2008 17:47:50 -0400

The provinces of Quebec and Ontario have shown great leadership by working together to institute a bilateral "cap-and-trade" system in an attempt to curb green house gas emissions. When the Canadian federal government is dragging its heels on what most consider the most important issue curretnly facing humanity, bilateral initiatives between provinces or municipalities makes a good deal of sense.

This kind of autonomy and leadership at the provincial level is refreshing. A similar dynamic has existed for many years in the U.S., where despite an administration nearl...

Going Green At The Banyan Resort

Mon, 12 May 2008 10:58:17 -0400

Eco tourism is increasingly gaining buzz as one of the hottest parts of ‘green-living.’ It sounds great - enjoy the benefits of a vacation away from the busy working life, and do it in a way that respects the environment during your escape! While the word ‘eco-tourism’ might make you think of roughing it in the great outdoors, thanks to some innovative social entrepreneurs, it is now possible to enjoy palm trees, exotic surroundings, and room service without doing what most of us do on vacation: take a break from the real world, and the stress we might feel ...

The Chinese Connection : The Red Dragon's tacit support of the Darfur Genocide

Tue, 11 Mar 2008 15:40:52 -0400

In 1994 China, an emerging super power, desperately in need of new oil sources helped a poor Government in Khartoum convert the Sudanese nation into oil exporters. In the 14 years since, as the oil and the money flowed, the relationship between the two nations has blossomed.

Today, China accounts for a quarter of Sudan’s imports and for nearly 70% of it’s, oil led, exports. The economic monopoly enjoyed by China through soft loans and state owned company investing in the Sudanese economy resulted, from its outset, in an incredible amount of Chinese poli...

WHAT'S GREENER? Chicken or Beef? Or Vegetarian? Or Vegan?

There's been lots of debate on our blog about how best to eat green and healthy. We recently shared some information on sustainable seafood - but we thought it was time to discuss eating meat - are some options better than others, if you do decide to eat meat? Where can you look for local, organic food? Is local always the right answer? Is is greener to be vegan than vegetarian? How have you convinced people to eat less meat? What other answers are you looking for from our green team about what's on your plate? Check our blog at the end of the week for a response ...

Facebook Underutilized as a Tool Kit for Activism

Sun, 03 Feb 2008 04:35:57 -0500

Despite Facebook’s vast, international audience and best-of-breed viral features, the site has yet to realize its potential to advance social change. My two co-founders and I conceived of Rethos.com out of criticism of the landscape of mainstream social networking websites and their apparent obsession with superficial content.

As we get closer to primaries in more than 20 states on February 5th, and with the field of candidates narrowing quickly, it’s important to consider environmental issues as you prepare to cast a primary vote.

Carpooling Application

Fri, 18 Jan 2008 17:47:52 -0500

With carpooling in a steady decline despite the highest gas prices ever and record traffic congestion, two new online firms want to revive ride-sharing by piggybacking on social networking sites.

The startup services, through the popular Facebook.com, attack obstacles that have held back ride-sharing programs: the fear of sharing a car with a stranger and reaching the “critical mass” of numbers required to effectively match up people for rides. Related Stories

The $10 per Gallon World

Fri, 18 Jan 2008 16:40:29 -0500

c/o Adei Ressi Blog (see link below)

We are already living in a $10 per gallon of gasoline world. Did that get your attention? Here are some things to think about:

The average yield of gasoline per barrel of oil differs widely based on the quality of the oil (logical), ranging from 5% to 30% of the 42 gallons in a barrel when using straightforward conversion methods. The price per barrel of oil that you read about is normally the â€œgood stuffâ€ (Texas or Arabian grade), yielding over 12 gallons of gasoline per barrel and as much as two thirds in prime conditions.

NYC PASSES PLASTIC BAG RECYCLING BILL

NYC PASSES PLASTIC BAG RECYCLING BILL

Last week, New York City took a giant step forward in the fight against plastic. New York’s City Council passed a bill requiring large stores and retail chains to collect and recycle plastic shopping bags. According to a New York Times report: “New York is by far the largest American city to enact so broad a measure to limit the environmental impact of the bags. Altogether, each year the country is estimated to use 86 billion bags, which end up blowing down city streets, or tangled in the stomachs of wh...

Big Oil lets sun set on renewables

Thu, 03 Jan 2008 00:39:58 -0500

Shell, the oil company that recently trumpeted its commitment to a low carbon future by signing a pre-Bali conference communique, has quietly sold off most of its solar business.

The move, taken with rival BP’s decision last week to invest in the world’s dirtiest oil production in Canada’s tar sands, indicates that Big Oil might be giving up its flirtation with renewables and going back to its roots.

Shell and BP are among the biggest producers of greenhouse gases in the world, but both have been keen to paint themselves green through a series of cle...

Displaced Fleeing War in Somalia Face Humanitarian Crisis

Tens of thousands of Somalis are living in camps like this one north of the capital, Mogadishu, suffering from a lack of water, food, and access to medical treatment.

The violence in Somalia escalated this year to some of the worst levels in over 15 years, causing an unknown number of civilian casualties and the displacement of hundreds of thousands of people from the capital. Many of those remaining in Mogadishu are staying in makeshift camps with little more than ripped cloth and plastic sheeting for shelter and are exposed to a high degree of violence

The world, or at least, Western populaces and their leaders have at last accepted climate change as a real, grave and imminent threat to our security and quality of life. But the response to tackling the crisis has taken a bizarre twist.
