A New Hope.

When it comes to inside the beltway politics, I am a cynic.  The two party system is a charade designed to keep real change far away from the business of governing.  It seems that to get to power you have to make so many agreements with so many crooks and liars that the agenda is already set.  HOWEVER, I'm trying to be audacious, I'm striving to hope.

I didn't watch the Inauguration speech, I watched the people, who watched Obama.   They've been empowered, they feel like they can make a difference.  Grass roots community activism can work.  These newly empowered voters need to not lose hope when help is slow to come from Washington.

My biggest hope is for our planet.   We don't need anything but a strong leader with a stronger message to mobilize the masses towards a lifestyle of cohabitation with our planet.  I cheered when Barack Obama stated, "Each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet". 

I'm trying to do my part, so along with the Crowd Fusion team, I'm please to announce that we've launched Super Eco to help educate people on the little things you can do every day to make a difference.  Super Eco will help dispel the Eco myths,  show why reading labels matters, and give a voice to the people offering solutions.  Join the movement, tell us how we can help, and become part of the Super Eco community.
