I'm back

There was a lull in blogging from April to now. Lots of changes going on. So now we'll get back to understanding sustainability and using it.

An incident happened several weeks ago that surprised me. It was hard to deal with and definitely unexpected.

Some information was requested by an organization so I sent some teasers to find out how much they actually knew about sustainability. Although people tell me they know what I'm talking about it, I find that their knowledge is very limited and really don't understand what I'm saying. So they hear what Snoopy did in the Charlie Brown cartoons, BLAAHHH, BLAAAHH, BLAAAHHH. Or to better explain, having a teenager tune you out because what you're saying is more than they can comprehend or want to understand.

Well, one of the executive's decided to automatically become offended at the email saying that it was rude and insulting. When approached he said, it sounded like you were saying we didn't have any concern about the environment at all.

Well, do they have any environmental programs in place? I wanted to ask that question so sarcastically...but business kicked in and I gracefully took the dress down.

Through a lot of humility, they've at least agreed to put in Occupancy Sensors. Whew!
