For example: El Projecto Esmeraldas is a marketing solution which tries to use affiliate marketing as a way of generating funds to invest in a marine reserve in the region of Esmeraldas Ecuador. By helping small businesses market their businesses through the association with an environmental hotspot we are making it possible for those to make a contribution to environmental protection without it costing them anything. we try to do lot of things posted here, but the success of being green is helping those that are not by using creative solutions.

I was absolutely appalled at how much businesses (as well as individuals) DON"T recycle or practice conservation. I was recently in Jackson Hole, Wyoming and noticed how diligent everyone (hotels, restaurants, grocery stores, residents) was about separating, recycling and conserving. It was really refreshing...until I got back to Orange County where you can't find a recycling bin except on a few residential curbs and where consumerism & waste is abundant. This incited me to plan and organize a "Green Initiative" at work with all proceeds from recycling going directly to local charities and schools. I purchased a composter for home and have notes posted everywhere with facts and impacts on not doing these things (much to the chagrin of my homes inhabitants) It's simply common sense and good practice. Thanks. Anita,

I have a question on what do you do about power management? If you already have the whole office energy prescription, this is great; I know of this one product to be working wonders and I could further discuss as you wish, if my product interests you. Check my web page and feel free to call. This is a great article and lots of people have high interest on learning more on this subject.
