Our fundamental goal is to transform the way that our culture perceives the world around us, shifting from our current “throw-away” mentality to one that values the preciousness of our natural resources and the inviolability of our irreplaceable planet.
We are confident that, together, we can play a vital role in this transformation. In the illustrious words of Margaret Meade, “never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.”
Each month, Green Chix Mentors will offer information through social media about targeted themes (such as water, energy, heath, comfort, design, etc.) and suggestions for environmentally- beneficial lifestyle choices. We trust that this material will enable you make more enlightened decisions about how to make your homes and lives more environmentally responsible, and also to influence your families, friends, and communities to do the same.
Life is busy, so we will provide a variety of suggestions for ways that you can get involved. If you want to be an environmental hero, you’re in the right place. If time is short and you just want to quick fix, no problem—we’ve got ideas for you too!
Green Chix is new and will evolve over time. We want to hear from you! Please email me at sara@greenbuildermag.com with your ideas about topics we should feature or thoughts about how we can enhance the program.
As we like to say at Green Builder Media, our commitment is unwavering and our task is clear: to continue exploring the frontiers of sustainability. We are pleased that you’re here to join us for this wildly exciting journey into the future.
