Conscious Business

-- Quote of the Day --

"Good leaders make people feel that they're at the very heart of things,
not the periphery. 
Everyone feels that he or she makes a difference 
to the success of the organization. 
When that happens, people feel centered 
and that gives their work meaning."

~ Warren Bennis

I was reading an article on the Sustainable Life Media (SustainableLifeMedia.com) site and learned that Pepsi and Coke companies continue to strive for more bio-friendly plastics… this article focused on Pepsi’s latest breakthrough:identified methods to create a molecular structure that is identical to petroleum-based PET (polyethylene terephthalate), which results in a bottle that looks and feels the same as existing PET beverage containers. … from bio-based raw materials, including switch grass, pine bark and corn husks. … it expects to broaden the renewable sources to include orange peels, potato peels, oat hulls and release the new bottle in 2012 production.”
