While some people are waiting for news and orientations towards the whole global warming and climate change issue, there are a couple of people like Stephen Morris who have taken the initiative in compiling the things to know and what to avoid to help save the environment.

Aside from being the editor and publisher of Green Living Magazine, he has come out with a book called The New Green Village for the masses. It contains most of the best ideas we hear today and with enough time, it is a good contribution towards making the environment once again healthy and green.

How many of you visit YouTube for eco-friendly and green information or just to catch a hot new green video everyone is talking about?

The one thing that has always beefed me about YouTube is its lack of categories, and/ or the lack of one being able to narrow down their focus. As i do research and look things up for this and my other blogs, i always am on the look out for that green “category” or “section“. And surprisingly many times in different online media outlets i do find it, but it is not completely mainstream, just yet.

To the rescue comes in a new green video sharing site, called emPivot, that is dedicated to green and eco-friendly videos. This new video site probably won’t be as big as YouTube, but for a certain demographic it is highly welcomed and appreciated. Plus i keep reading in new media journals that niching is a trend that we will see more of as a way for folks to wade through all the info overload.

Some of the green categories at emPivot include:
Green Building, Nature and Conservation, Food & Health for the Home, Travel, Energy & Climate, Community Development, and more.

And now an environmental-friendly FUNNY video

Going green starts at home and the benefits from participating and turning to green technology and practices will surely benefit any home today. Just think of it. A lot of the green issues come from wasted energy that powers most residential homes today. Wasted power and energy not only becomes a problem for people who are thinking of going conservation and climate changes, but also the issue of rising electric bills as well.

But going green does not come cheap. Some may have to shed out extra money to implement the green-friendly household today. Instead of looking at the extra cash outlay, it would be best to look at it as a whole. You may be spending extra money, but you are helping make the world safer and cleaner to live in. Now that is going green with the greens.

Just like a business undergoing a strategic management solution, going green is also a business management entity in its own if people would only list down the facts and use the various strategic management tools wisely in determining how to go green.

Maximizing all resources and putting them to good use is the best way to sum it all up and come up with a feasible working relationship within organization such as Natural Capitalism, Inc. which teaches management of resources efficiently to satisfy both profits and green awareness professionally.

Possibilities are made with the use of provided ideas from various sectors such as the ones being pushed by the Better World Society. In one good move, using one of the popular characters in the Muppets to carry out the message for upholding and preaching the intent of environmental awareness is something that has drawn a lot of attention and interest.

While it is assumed that the viewers familiar with the Muppets are mostly children, making them aware of these situations and educating them young will surely be something that will entice people today to start thinking green.
