Mitesdesign.com will be showing up green rather soon. I figured it’d time to let my colors show.
For several months now Mitesdesign.com and a number of affiliated web-sites have been hosted by 130% green carbon credits. Meaning that every month the power used by our server is carbon neutral and 30% of the power is credited back to the grid.
This is a simple beginning of a number of changes that have been discussed recently when we asked what is our story? Personally I have been a supporter of sustainable energy since 5th grade when I first played with solar panels in my school science fair. It took many years before I came to realize how those panels hooked up to a motor could reshape the world. We live at a time when “global warming” has gone from a myth of the extremists, to a responsibility hot potatoe being tossed around, “well it may exist, but it’s not our fault”. This while the World Bank held their first conference on how to deal with climate change over 2 years ago.
Sustainability is a rather big word when you first hear it, in a nutshell it means that what we do now, our grandchildren and their grandchildren will be able to do. I’m not here to harp on anyone, however over the next several weeks I will be happy to show a new face, and look forward to sharing tips on how to green up your own business. Most things are rather simple, and the beauty of it is that most things that are green save green.
GO GREEN!
