Issues that will be discussed by the panelists:

Where do companies need to go, and whom do they need to appeal to in order to initiate research projects that will bring forth innovation and ultimately transform themselves into a Green Industry?

Who is financing green technologies and innovations?

Why is it beneficial to invest in environmental technological innovations? Why is it advantageous to invest in energy and which benefits could these investments bring?

Which financial options and/or funds do companies who wish to become environmentally responsible have? What type of social and fiscal benefits would this transformation bring? What impact does this transformation have on consumer behavior and perception?

What must be done to create awareness among companies and consumers about the use of renewable energies and green products? Which strategies can be implemented in order to break negative consumer mental barriers such as preconceptions of poor quality of renewable energies and green products? How to change negative consumer perception that green products are made of poor quality materials and hinder progress?

How can companies reduce costs without affecting the quality of their products through the use of green energies and resources? How can companies save and optimize resources, and what do they need to do?

Les recordamos a todos nuestros amigos nuestro compromiso ecológico: por cada asistente, estaremos sembrando 10 árboles, y por cada espacio de 10'x10' que reserven las compañías para exhibir sus productos y servicios, se estarán sembrando 100 árboles!!

A Story of Too Much Stuff
Tammy Stroebel gave away most of her stuff, got rid of her cars, switched to a job that she loves but pays a lot less and says she is much happier. Could you do it?


By Lloyd Alter | Wed Aug 11, 2010 10:13

A happy Tammy and Husband
Rowdy Kittens, uncopyright by Tammy Stroebel
READ MORE ABOUT:
Get Recession-Ready | Green on a Budget | Money | Penny Pinching
Planet Green has been covering Frugal Green Living, , the idea of Living With Less, and long before it even started we wrote about how to get ready for the recession. I follow quite a few other bloggers who actually practice what they preach, like Trent and Everett. (I admit to being a complete failure.) Another that I follow but have not written about is Tammy Strobel of Rowdy Kittens, where she writes:
Somewhere along the way we start thinking we need more and more stuff to be happy. But is that really true? Do we need a bigger house, a better car, or a large salary to find happiness? Imagine what the world would look like if we pursued our dreams rather than more stuff.
Stephanie Rosenbloom of The New York Times wrote a good article about her and the new frugalism movement recently, titled But Will It Make You Happy?

The article describes how Tammy got rid of most of their excess clothing, the TV, their cars and books to try and do the 100 thing challenge, where you live with just 100 personal items. Tammy says:
“The idea that you need to go bigger to be happy is false,” she says. “I really believe that the acquisition of material goods doesn’t bring about happiness.”
The Times notes that it isn't just Tammy, but that a lot of people are changing the way they live, and it isn't just in reaction to the recession.

According to retailers and analysts, consumers have gravitated more toward experiences than possessions over the last couple of years, opting to use their extra cash for nights at home with family, watching movies and playing games — or for “staycations” in the backyard. Many retailing professionals think this is not a fad, but rather “the new normal.”
“I think many of these changes are permanent changes,” says Jennifer Black, president of the retailing research company Jennifer Black & Associates and a member of the Governor’s Council of Economic Advisors in Oregon. “I think people are realizing they don’t need what they had. They’re more interested in creating memories.”

I noted at the beginning that I consider myself a failure at this, being a few years older than Tammy, having a house and two kids, having collected a lot of stuff racked up a bit of debt in my time. But we are trying to follow her concluding advice in the New York Times:

“My lifestyle now would not be possible if I still had a huge two-bedroom apartment filled to the gills with stuff, two cars, and 30 grand in debt,” she says.
“Give away some of your stuff,” she advises. “See how it feels.”

With renewable and alternative energy we can prevent and stop the blackouts in America!: http://edition.cnn.com/2010/TECH/innovation/0 ... alse.
