A few nights ago, we attended the Seattle Business Magazine Green 50 Awards event. ReBinder had been nominated in the Reuse category and made the top 50. Wednesday, Sept 21st was the event where they chose a winner in each category.
One thing that stood out to us was how each company nominated was not a green business, they were simply a business who's value return ...{ 0 comments }
Guilt is not sustainable...not as a marketing technique, a state of being or a political platform.
In the early days of environmental awareness and corporate responsibility there were leaders. These were folks with vision and the voice to be heard.

Besides the obvious ‘do you make this in plastic’ question that we occasionally field, the second most peculiar question we are asked is if we can ‘cover up the brown kraft’ and flood it with color or wrap it....and yes sometimes, we are asked if we can wrap it in plastic or vinyl.

Some of our team just got back from #ExpoWest. Overall impressions were mixed. The good news, there is still innovation building responsible products out there. The bad news, there is equal innovation in greenwashing...making it more challenging for the authentic to prevail through the noise.

On the facebook comment thread about the announcement, many people are concerned ...{ 0 comments }

When you ask most entrepreneurs or aspiring business builders what books have influenced them most as leaders, you usually get the standard Built to Last, Good to Great, Winning, etc. While all these are great books that we can learn a lot from, I don’t think they translate well to early-stage business and specifically, what many others call the ‘green industry’ (while I think the term itself ...{ 0 comments }
