Areas of Interest
Renewable Energy
Renewable energy is energy from renewable resources that are naturally replenished on a human timescale. Renewable resources include include sunlight, wind, the movement of water, and geothermal heat.
Energy Efficiency
Energy efficiency is the practice of using less energy to provide the same amount of useful output from a service (such as heating water, lighting, or cooling a fridge). It is one of the easiest and most cost effective ways to reduce emissions, clean the air we breathe, improve the competitiveness of our businesses and reduce energy costs for consumers.
Sustainable Living
Sustainable living describes a lifestyle that attempts to reduce the use of Earth's natural resources by an individual or society. Its practitioners often attempt to reduce their ecological footprint by altering their home designs and methods of transportation, energy consumption and diet. Its proponents aim to conduct their lives in ways that are consistent with sustainability, naturally balanced, and respectful of humanity's symbiotic relationship with the Earth's natural ecology.
Zero Emission Vehicles
A zero-emission vehicle, or ZEV, is a vehicle that does not emit exhaust gas or other harmful pollutants from the onboard source of power. Harmful pollutants to our health and the environment include particulates (soot), hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, ozone, lead, and various oxides of nitrogen.
Natural Health & Beauty
Natural health and beauty products are those that use ingredients derived from nature, such as plants, minerals, or vitamins, and avoid harmful chemicals, such as parabens, sulfates, or artificial fragrances. Natural health products can help keep us balanced and support our well-being, while natural beauty products are understood to be better for our health and the environment.
Holistic Health
Holistic health is a philosophy or way of life that considers the whole person: body, mind, and spirit. It draws from ancient healing traditions and wellness-oriented lifestyle choices to prevent disease and promote well-being. Holistic health approaches include traditional and complementary medicines, such as yoga, massage, herbalism, aromatherapy, and homeopathy. Holistic health also involves emotional and mental counselling, self-help resources, and personal empowerment. Holistic health practitioners use natural plant extracts, essential oils, and customized supplements to support health and healing.
