It was a year ago today, that Starbucks went naked, and created MyStarBucksIdea, a site where customers could go and tell SB how to improve. Uncensored and completely open to all suggestions, this site rocks. Are you willing to get naked, too?

If you’re wanting to green your business, one avenue you could take can be in the form of certification. A few local (and some national) organizations exist that will help you in greening your operations, and make sure you meet environmental standards.
One such outfit is the Bay Area Green Business Program. Through this program you make a pledge to conform to certain earth friendly metrics.

We hear it and are often given memorandums on how to contribute to the whole green effort. Much of the problems that contribute to global warming today stem from human analytics. For example, a simple energy saving responsibility such as turning of your computer to help save on energy resources may be a lot of work to most but its small contribution will go a long way if the whole world would do the same.
This and a lot of other problems in uph

Whether you run a restaurant or a dry cleaner, there are things you can do to lower your carbon footprint. It all starts by taking an assessment of your enterprise and looking around at your various departments. You can do a complete overhaul, or you can start small and build from there.

With all the controversies surrounding the use of paper and its manner of production, this should not stop people from doing business and handing out their personal cards. But while we all know that the source of business cards are the usual paper and cardboards that make use of trees and other natural resources prior to printing, using eco-friendly or recycled paper is a great way to go green for starters.

Apparently, the whole aspect of business planning would normally include the external factors for consideration before carrying out proper strategic planning. Among these external factors include political, legal, social, demographic and environmental factors.
When we talk about environmental factors, climate change will surely be at the top of the heap when considering how environmental impact can affect business. Climate change is a risk facto

We are all going green and looking for supposedly better products that can help save the environment. We get a lot of them today. We read them on newspapers, run into them at websites and even get some unsolicited email for certain promotions. But the thing is, are they truly green compliant and worth every penny.
You have to note this sometime; Are green products really supposed to cost that much? Some may view is as a revenue-generating oppor

While most people are caught up in the problems that climate change brings, looking at the bright side, catering to this aspect can more or less help people as far as giving them jobs. Unemployment is a known issue that we hear of today. Now taking that issue and try to undergo some changes by creating some eco-friendly jobs to combat climate change may be a good step in the right direction.

Each time the holiday season comes, chances are we will always find ourselves feasting and eating sumptuous meals from parties and gatherings. But this time around, there is a new twist in providing food and taste satisfaction.

Eco-fashion is something we are all aware of and people are sure to check them out. Among them, fur coats, jackets and clothing have been criticized for its origin which most would refer to animals which have to be safeguarded as well.
Here is an ad campaign launched from Canada. Canada’s fur industry is fighting against these misconceptions and are aiming to prove to one and all that fur is environmentally friendly.

Do you know the story of Adam Werbach? It is quite the story.
Adam Werbach was recently featured on the cover of Fast Company, and many are either with the innovative environmentalist or against him.
Why? Because Werbach has decided to join forces with big-box retailer Walmart and help them go green. Many are stating that this is not the way to advocate green living as Walmart is not known for its eco friendly practices.
