Vote for Triple Bottom Line Companies

America is the land of the free and the home of the impatient. Check out this video where Dr. Lorraine Haataia encourages viewers to pay attention to the companies they're supporting, and to choose to buy from CSR triple bottom line companies like Patagonia, Whole Foods Market and Chipotle Mexican Grill, and to think twice before making too many purchases at large, low-price stores like Walmart.

Dr. Lorraine encourages buyers to slow down just a bit to “Google” the companies and manufacturers they’re voting for with their dollars.

If you’re interested in having Dr. Lorraine Haataia speak at your organization, contact her at www.DrLorraine.net.

No Impact Man Enlightens World

No Impact Man is one of the most inspiring documentaries I've ever seen!

Colin Beavan and his wife, Michelle Conlin, inspire the world by changing their way of life in the Big Apple. Colin believes that we all have a voice and we all need to take responsibility for our own actions. But Colin and Michelle aren't just preaching; they're the real thing! They phased in big changes in their own lives over a one year period to reduce their impact.

Colin and Michelle show how individual customers can make daily decisions that can also change corporations. Sometime in the near future, I hope to meet this couple I respect very much.

Get to know them in their reality-TV-like documentary where they welcome the world into their New York City home:



Michelle says the no impact way of life gave her the following benefits:
  • time slowed down
  • she felt like she lived more in the moment
  • she was much happier
  • her family became much closer
