Social Media....you gotta love it

Here at return2earth not only do we try to do our bit for the environment but we also like to think we're making the most of the technology available to us.

Social media is currently one of the most talked about phenomenons of our age with new sites and variations popping up all the time we wonder where it will all end. People's tastes vary widely so whilst one person might love Facebook someone else might appreciate the bite size updates of Twitter. We can't decide between the two and use them for different things so you can find us here http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/pages/wwwreturn2earthcouk/67004148005?ref=nf and here http://twitter.com/return2earth_01

Like our blog we'll try to keep these areas updated as often as possible and would appreciate any of your suggestions for blog topics and discussions for any of the available media.

Back soon...

Encouraging signs

In a time where most of what we read in the national press or see on the news is at best negative and at worst downright depressing, it's been encouraging lately to see that certain businesses and sectors seem to be fighting back and showing positive signs and attitudes.

It's always tough starting a new business and the current climate makes it even harder but the more I read the more I see that a huge amount of new businesses are environmentally focussed and profess to be ethically sound. Something that strikes me as incredibly relevant with all that is currently going on behind the scenes at Westminster.

Perhaps it's an attitude that resides in all eco people or perhaps it's a real sign that eco businesses are here to stay, but wherever you look there are green businesses sprouting up. Brand new ideas or variations on an old theme, it really doesn't matter. There is a real shift in perception and when quality companies start producing quality green products and services then those who have shunned them in the past will run out of excuses. To be honest, I think we're already there, we just need to push those companies even harder and start using them so that they become the norm.

The future is bright, the future is green.

Tempus fugit!

It's over a year since my last post and I'm very aware that so much has changed in that time. First of all the reasons for my lack of appearance here are two fold. The amazing news is that I now have a baby son who has changed my life completely but who for the last year has turned my life on its head...in a good way I hasten to add. All my dreams and beliefs have now been brought into sharp focus and the knowledge that his future is in my hands is both exciting and scary. Just like our planet, he needs to be nurtured and looked after to make sure he grows up into a well adjusted and healthy individual and that is a massive responsibilty but one that brings rich rewards.

When he arrived I decided I needed to get a "proper job" so have spent the last year earning a living away from this business. I've now realised that his and my future is this business and it's about time return2earth started achieving what it was set up to do.

So, please forgive my absence and renew your support for this fledgling enterprise which one day soon will make a huge positive difference to all of our lives.

I'm the Daddy!
