“We need to be the change we want to see in the world” – Mahatma Gandhi

Ordinary Joes are overwhelmed by the issues about the environment and coupled with greenhouse effect, CFCs, climate change, and carbon tax, it has become harder to communicate the importance of taking care of the environment. We are trained into thinking that being green is  a crusade or a form of protest but really it is just discovering or re-discovering a new way of living that is in tune with Mother Nature.

If we have a hard look at the big picture, we will realise that the core is actually us – you and me!
