I can think of one area that is missing in these links, pest control. Rodents and insects can carry all sorts of bacteria and disease. My company www.RepellNet.com offers all sorts of natural pest control products for people and some animals.

I’m considering joining the World Wealth Society , a group started by thought leader, James Arthur Ray (I’m a big fan) and wanted to see if anyone had any tips or info about going carbon neutral as a business owner. One of the requirements of the society is, as a business owner, to take your company carbon neutral and to set up an environmental policy. I’m totally onboard, but frankly, I’m a little intimated and would love to hear from some other business owners who have done this and what the costs and time commitments are to make this happen. James talks about why we need to do this in his book, Harmonic Wealth (check out the Relationship chapter – as in relationship with the world! – on page 133), but I’d love some more specifics. Thanks! a JR fan
