| About Me |
I am passionate about my kids, love the Big Blue. What scares me the most is aphaty. Favorite author is Albert Camus. Favorite quote is from Albert Einstein: "We can’t solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them." I have worked in the personal and surface care business for the last 7+ years. I am in it to tackle both environmental and health toxicity issues. |
| Favorite green websites/publications: |
grist, greenbiz.com, inhabitat, khosla ventures, cleantech blog, plos, science friday, npr, health care without harm. A full list at www.green-age.org/blog |
| Favorite non-profit organization |
Douleurs Sans Frontières, a group of doctors rebuilding health care systems and training HC personnel in areas affected by armed conflicts and natural disaster. Environmental Defense Fund for being a very active participant in rethinking how we live. Green Science & Policy and Union of Concerned Scientists for adding their much needed voice in the fight against toxic products and climate change. |
| If I could change one thing in the world, it would be: |
Tougher legislation on pollution. |
| I think the most important environmental issue is: |
Addressing climate change from a CO2 emissions perspective is tackling only half of the environmental challenge we're facing. Toxic pollution is the other half. |
| The greenest thing I do is: |
Live by 5 principles: reduce, reuse, recycle, replace and reinvent (how I live). |
| What does "sustainability" mean to me: |
Consider the entire life cycle of products I buy. Think of the short and long terms consequences of what I do. |
| Why am I passionate about being green? |
It is such a natural thing to do. |
