gobizgreen: July 2010
http://gobizgreen.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, 24 July 2010. Energy Efficiency in the drivers seat. Energy Efficiency is always the first step when reviewing your energy plan for the next few years. So if you or your business plans to purchase a new vehicle, then it's not just the initial investment, it's about your fuel and running costs. So Ford's ECOnetic Fiesta turbo diesel. Is certainly one to consider. My pic of Ford Fiesta ECOnetic at Enviro 2010. Zero Emission Street Sweeper. 500ZE Electric Street Sweeper, which was on display.

gobizgreen: Peak What?
http://gobizgreen.blogspot.com/2010/12/peak-what.html
Saturday, 11 December 2010. The concept of Peak Oil is now well into mainstream communities, or so I thought. Last night I found myself at a function seated next to a well educated, newly retired IT professional, who seemed to be totally unaware of Peak Oil and its implications. We are in the era of information, and we debate about how much we are told. Certainly, everyone in the group knew about Wiki-Leaks! But not Peak Oil? The media loves sensation, what's happening day by day, and that fills the news.

gobizgreen: Australia's Fair Share of Carbon Reduction
http://gobizgreen.blogspot.com/2011/06/australias-fair-share-of-carbon.html
Tuesday, 21 June 2011. Australia's Fair Share of Carbon Reduction. Today I attended a City of Sydney Business Forum Lunch where Prof Ross Garnaut of the Garnaut Climate Change Review. Was the guest speaker. Prof Garnaut spoke about his most recent report and commented that with our resources boom, we have “the best of times” economically to bring in a price on carbon. He commented that inaction would be counterproductive and that Australia needs to do a fair share on a global basis. My pic 21 June 2011.

gobizgreen: August 2010
http://gobizgreen.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, 14 August 2010. Population Balance in Australia. Businesses in Australia have done well in recent times, with population growing and more goods and services on demand. But as Dick Smith. In his true blue Aussie entrepreneurial style, is pointing out to us, increasing population is just short term and very hazardous thinking in a world where resources are finite and weather patterns changing. Dick Smith has set himself goals in the past and inspired many Australians. Let's hope his Populatio...

gobizgreen: September 2010
http://gobizgreen.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Monday, 20 September 2010. Opportunity knocks once, and if the door isn’t answered, moves on to another door. We all have those moments in our personal histories, where we took on a challenge, or where we sat still, debating whether this opportunity was real, not moving and later regretting. In 2010, Opportunity is knocking loudly, for the many countries on this planet, that will lead and dominate the future. And we, in Australia (and the US) are still in debate mode.

gobizgreen: Act Now and Spread the Word
http://gobizgreen.blogspot.com/2011/05/act-now-and-spread-word.html
Saturday, 21 May 2011. Act Now and Spread the Word. This week, I attended some of the Sydney Writers festival events, including an evening session in Sydney Town Hall called " You've Been Warned". Which was a joint presentation and Q&A by three Authors, Paul Gilding, Naomi Oreskes, and Curt Stager who discussed the issues around climate change and the current political climate where delay and denial are given place. Could your factory fit solar panels, or change the hot water system? But most of all, tel...
