American reGeneration this July 4th, 2009 and beyond!

Happy Independence Day America, July 4th, 2009!

We are learning of so much that is going on in Portland, Oregon that is hopeful in these very tough times there (Here is yet another example, with inspirational practicality, of "the we, not just the me." Cudos to Spencer Beebe, Ecotrust & the Jean Vollum Natural Capital Center.) -- and for so many across our country facing serious challenges, for our planet and for the animals really suffering here (near and on the California coast) and beyond in unprecedented ways. Frankly, not because it's "just nice," but because it's in our interests, we need to more than ever "hang together," or surely we shall "hang separately." Get it?!

The Power of Green (please watch the embedded video in the front page of the article) is now essential to the survival of your family, your community, your planet, and oh yeah...you!

From your young, hopeful British cousin, "see" what is possible now! This is YOUR call to action!

The Red, White & Blue must become very Green!
