More About Me

I'm passionate about

sustainability, NON GMO food, organic food, seed saving, organic textiles, fair trade, human rights, civil rights, gay rights, women's rights, word hunger, energy crisis, food crisis,

An idea worth spreading

a shipping company that is as sustainable as humanly possible. (hopefully 100%) - encouraging companies and people at home to eliminate the unnecessary. ex: lighting systems when you could put in skylights or many windows. - studying bioluminescent animals to learn sustainable ways to produce light.

Talk to me about

sustainability, the elimination of the unnecessary. rejection of unnecessary and toxic technologies.

People don't know that I'm good at

  A comment on Talk: David Damberger: What happens when an NGO admits failure

  Dec 22 2011: i like the statement "we need to work on problems that matter" i think that sums up much of my view toward issues.
  
  i also applaud the concept of a failure report. that would be a revolutionary growth tool for all business. i applaud engineers without boarders for embracing their failures and making the failure report.
  that should be an idea spread and encouraged to all organizations. it should be seen as a positive, not something to ignore or hide. because, as this talk points out, hiding failures will only serve to repeat them.
