My Experiences as a Social Entrepreneur in Developing Countries. ~ Tiez Kroezen
by Unreasonable Institute on Feb 3, 2012
People often ask me what made me decide to give up my consulting-career and live the uncertain life of a social entrepreneur. My answer is that it is because I am a stubborn fool. Foolish enough to try things that many people say are impossible: building a business with thousands of illiterate, unorganized farmers in Ghana, or trying to make money with Internet in Africa, which most experts say is impossible. And I am stubborn enough to continue trying, even when things are tough.248 views

by elephantjournal.com on Nov 25, 2011
I hope this helps you look like less of a jack ass next time you meet an attractive vegan in the Whole Foods check out line. Instead of “Where do you get your protein,” try, “I see that you are purchasing hemp seeds. Hemp seeds are so great. What an excellent source of protein and omegas. Maybe we should hang out sometime and eat some hemp seeds together.” I’m almost positive it will get you a date.3,592 views

You Are What You Drive.
by Brianna Bemel on Nov 18, 2011
In high school, it seemed like everyone had a car, everyone except me,and oh, did I want one. Bad. As it was, I had to take the bus or was driven by my mom, but like every kid, I wanted those four wheels that would mean coolness to my name. In fact, it was early on in my life that I learned a car would have the power to manage how I felt about myself and where I belonged in society.573 views

Making Waves in Colorado: Sunday, November 13. ~ Joseph Chisholm
by elephantjournal.com on Nov 11, 2011
Although Colorado is far from the salt and sea, people from all over the planet have chosen to make this mountain state their home, and are aware of and want to become more informed about how the decisions we make can effect the oceans so far away. Consumption of all our natural resources including the snow that falls and waters carried in the rivers that swell in spring all lead to the ocean.153 views

Horizon Milk & Silk Soy: 20 Reasons to Ride the White Wave into Dean Foods Green. ~ Tara DeAngelis
by elephantjournal.com on Oct 6, 2011
As a reader of elephant journal, it is likely you have purchased Horizon Organic Milk, or Silk soy milk recently. Who knew they were owned by the same company, White Wave, who is now owned by Dean Foods? I sure didn’t.Even though food companies like Dean Foods are acquiring companies demonstrating Right-Livelihood, like White Wave, it is still disturbing that the industry is moving closer and closer to being monopolized.The loss of integrity in the organic food industry, along with Monsanto's rising is a eminent crisis that will affect our generation very soon.653 views
