One Carbon Less Vision



A Better Deal-  Securing America’s Future-

We are all shareholders in securing our children’s future. Let’s best maximize our land’s value and minimize its loss. 

WAR – We Are Regaining- conserve not consume  - Explore ingenious alternative environmental financing mechanisms (e.g.Eco-shares, green bucks or alternatives green fund/bond etc.) 


1. Currently the American dollar is based on our faith in the Federal Reserve System. Without TRUST, the system will fail. What long term environmental economic social security system is there?

2. America’s best response is to help itself during a disaster. Disaster is now “happening.” Immediate mitigation measures such as tree planting are imperative.

3. Why WAR? Is not our current enemy ourselves? During a war, We are all united to combat the issue. Now, let’s focus on how life-cycle accounting for future financial savings.

 4. A War on Waste (people, places and things) is an economical win/win option. New financial and insurance mechanisms will create new opportunities . 


WHAT- Recreate future markets that stimulate saving instead of consuming. Present prices and policies foster inefficiencies and disincentives to save. What can we lose vs. gain? 


One possibility is a new CCC - Civilian Conservation Corps. Foster public/private enterprises that stimulate sustainable community endeavors that;

*Create jobs * Foster wellness and psychic well being * Best manage natural, human and other resources * Regain new possibilities to people from all walks of life


Ingeniously explore trust fund-like opportunities to stimulate green infrastructure prospects. Also, thrifty resource management investments may create ingenious R&D opportunities to stimulate green economic development. Profiting on pollution prevention will result in our greatest investment - this beloved land.


REGAIN U.S- create new markets to preserve, conserve and

protect that stimulate green growth;  *Organizational development and master plans to design all facets of climate cooling  *Micro-financing *University contests like the ones done for Solar Houses * Small Business Loans and Supports  * Research and Development (R&D) funding and  centers *Letters of Credit, promissory notes, low interest loans, tax credits, etc *Inventory and benefit/cost life cycle accounting to document risk avoidance and long term gains. *Other wisely engineered supportive measures


WHO - Fortune 500 companies, small businesses, non-profits, civic groups, religious groups and people from all walks of life. If WE the people are not involved somehow, A BETTER DEAL will fail. We all will benefit if this is made convenient and easy to maximize support.


WHAT - Replace - Use It or Lose It - Let’s Not Lose It. Present government and corporations have created planned obsolescence formulating a green economy   


Massive tax reform, and actuarial and accounting measures are vital. Highlighting long-term gains rather than subsiding obsolescence is paramount. Pricing for pollution and regrettable costs must be placed-up front. Fostering preventative measures requires market based ingenuity.  A Better Deal - WAR  requires various tipping points. Climate change is a clear and present danger.  WAR - We Are Regaining - promotes foreseeing and forestalling eco-disaster. Let’s celebrate American thrift with future gifts of less carbon and more well-being.

Page County Landfill Story

Recently, Ryan Grim’s article “Marvin’s Dirty Secret,” appeared in the October Rolling Stone Magazine exposing how the President’s brother’s waste company went bankrupt. This firm left behind Page County , Virginia citizens to pay a $8.5 million dollars environmental bill. Page County has a population of 24,000 and is a hour-and-a-half drive west of Washington D.C next to the Blue Ridge Mountains . It is also home to a major Virginia tourist attraction, Luray Caverns. Page County has been spent a lot of time dealing with landfill issues . There have been numerous questions of conflicts of interest . It’s as if a huge political football is being kicked around regarding what happened and why over the private operation of one unlined landfill and a mega-landfill recently closed by the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (VADEQ) for ongoing violations and excessive trash intake . There have been many anomalies in the operation of these Page County landf

Despair in Repair

Recently I learned that I have prostrate cancer. For many years my dermatologist has been removing this from my skin. In my recovery may I honor each day as my last. My priceless experiences comes from this celebrating what I been given. How better may I address my mortality then to Face Everything and Recover. When I Frick Everything and Run this other FEAR fosters little repair of my despair. It is challenging to deal with what is happening. Climate change profoundly terrorizes me. First addressing my inner conflicts best allows me to accept outer events. My way out of disaster is to triumph by accepting within. When I become more tolerant this attitude of gratitude renews me.  Such a resilient mindset liberates me. Acceptances frees me to whatever circumstances arise.   Fearless insights liberates me from my selfish emotions.  When my deeds and values align I find harmony. Being of greater service also gets me out of my victimhood. Kind acts heals me. Excess egotism le

Toxic Plastic Waste

Image
The plastics industry for years promoted that plastic was fantastic. Yes, it's a fantastic environmental crime. Contamination in the U.S. is high since many unrecyclable forms of plastic are mismanaged. Seven percent is recovered while 3/4 is lost or buried. The lack of smarter packaging has resulted in today's horrific plastic pollution. For more than 45 years, I have championed marketing secondary materials. I have helped recycle a wide variety of reused products, from tennis balls to motor oil. I have worn many hats to promote secondary end markets. Without finding new economic opportunities for recyclables, it will be discarded. People's plastic waste exemplifies the cost of our foolishness. Tragically, we're seeing this in all aspects of our lives. For example, in the healthcare industry, a third to half is mismanaged. My dad's congressional health care expertise allowed me to observe this tragic waste our ecology determines are well-being.  Remembe
