Happy Earth Day 2010!!

I would like to take a few moments to say that I am thankful for this planet. It goes to tremendous lengths to nourish me. When my actions are not very green, I make mother nature work way too hard. Generally, when this happens I take note. I vow to do better. I wonder about what I can do differently, and I take action. I ask that my everyday responsibilities not be so at odds with how I want to care for the planet. Most of all I have hope. Go green!!

Thank you to everyone who supported this blog in 2009. For the time-being Savvy Success Unlimited's eco-conscious voice is still alive and well. Right now, it's just resting.

Happy Earth Day!!

Be Your Own Visionary

There is no doubt that we are in a time of monumental change. Banking experts and government leaders are paving the way for a new tomorrow, many of us hope. However, what we need are new voices, new visionaries. All we have to do is look in the mirror. Who knows what any of us might be able to add to the mix? Thought leaders, such as Albert Einstein, have throughout the ages understood that we cannot solve the problems of today using the perspectives that created them. It is time for those who have been quietly keeping to themselves or the ones who have long gone unnoticed by popular culture to step out of the shadows and infuse the main stream with a new energy and consciousness. This wonderfully creative process can start with each one of us, being visionaries for ourselves. Perhaps you have been wanting to do things differently. Take a few minutes. Make some quiet time for yourself or go above and beyond and focus in the midst of chaos. Let that desire for change sink in. From its d...

Your Voice and National Environmental Policy

Previous blog commenters mentioned that having the U.S. government involved in the green movement gives it a push and stamp of approval that no other organization in this great country can give it. This September as it did forty years ago with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, the Senate will review revolutionary environmental legislation, that could change the way we live and do business. The current Act will be negotiated, poked, prodded, and harangued; going green has indeed gone governmental! Two significant questions are: Will individual voices from communities all over the U.S. make Senators aware of how they feel about this bill? Will people tell their hometown politicians what they need from this legislation? The American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009 sponsored by Henry Waxman (D-CA) and co-sponsored by Ed Markey (D-MA) was passed by the narrow margin of 219-212 in the House of Representatives on July 24, 2009. This might signal a governmental tipping point...

Consciously Choosing Change

Consciously choosing change can often be quite a courageous feat; it is not for the meek or the faint of heart. Today, one of the greatest calls to change heard around the globe is for sustainability. The transformations needed to move forward in this quest are on par with some of the greatest movements in history. The green movement, from an American perspective, has the potential to be as monumental as the founding of this country, the Industrial Revolution, or the Civil Rights movement. Each occasion changed the manner in which individuals interacted with one another and had effects that reverberated around the world. As people everywhere consciously choose to support the wave of green movements far and wide, the resulting crescendo of new ways to relate to each other, the land, and our monetary systems has the potential to create a healthy, sustainable planet. The business sector is a key actor in consciously choosing change for sustainability. Joel Makower, well-known for his per...
