This weekend was the first annual Seattle BizJam, a conference and networking event for small, independent businesses. During the Ignite lightning talk session, I presented some tips on sustainable business practices for the small office. The slides from my talk, Green Hacks for the Small Office, are shared here. The slides list the tips, as well as links pointing you to more information.

Today is the annual NW Biodiesel Forum at Seattle Center, with interactive panels, booths, music and a full line-up of speakers. Come learn about renewable energy at the Seattle Center Fisher Pavilion from 10 am - 5 pm on Sunday, May 6th. Admission is free.

Green technology, alternative energy and sustainability are hot topics these days. With the wealth of information available, it is becoming easier to understand how our practices are harming our planet. It is also becoming clear that there is much we can do, with current and emerging technology, to change those practices for the better.

This innovation has inspired me. I’ve made it one of my main goals to promote sustainable practices and generate demand for technical innovation. I am a member of the Seattle Renewable Energy group, which focuses on sharing knowledge of renewable energy topics, a contributor to Worldchanging’s Seattle blog, and a program committee member for the O’Reilly Energy Innovation Conference. My focus is on renewable energy and sustainable living.  I frequently give talks in the Seattle area on these topics.
