LED IDEAS has informed us on how to go greener by use of LED Lights. They  design led lights specific for commercial use, but also talk much of the Benefits of LED Lights.

They have shared these great facts about LED bulbs:

LEDs use at least 20% less energy than conventional bulbs, with the potential to save up to 90% off your energy bills in certain cases. Switch to LEDs and your investment will pay for itself far sooner than you’d expect.

Not only do LED bulbs run more efficiently, but they last far longer. With an LED lighting system in place, bulb changes are an infrequent occurrence. 

LED lighting is safer than both filament and fluorescent bulbs. Because there is no mercury in LED bulbs, they can be easily disposed of at the end of their lifecycle and do not require specialist disposal methods.

But what about your business?

Businesses in both the private and public sectors are now obliged to reduce their carbon footprint, either under existing rules or as pre-compliance in anticipation of impending legislation. LED lighting is one area in which organizations can take clear steps to reduce energy bills. Public and private sector bodies are now obliged to evince that they are committed to making budgetary savings for the benefit of taxpayers or stakeholders. Continued reliance upon outdated technologies such as filament bulbs is a profligate policy that is impossible to justify in an era of ever-tightening budgets. 

This is where LED IDEAS can help.  Their full range of  LED products in their online catalog include tube lights, panel lights, car park lights,  tunnel lights,  even lights for the tennis or squash court, you would be amazed!

Village 12 Dominican Republic Volunteer Organization

Village 12   is making a difference in the world today, mainly in the small town of Munoz, Dominican Republic.  Their work includes building showers, bathroom facilities, water filtration, and school houses.    Village12 trains volunteers like me and you, on how to be effective field project managers and to help with projects needed in the Dominican Republic.





They are making a difference in people's lives. With a vision and goals, an entire community is being revamped. You can make a difference and be part of something grand.  Their core principals at Village12 follow a simple process to initiate and sustain self-sufficient projects in a community. Donations and volunteers are needed to help them meet their goals!

Their Volunteer House is located in the heart of Munoz, a small farming town outside Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic. Munoz is home to about 15,000 Dominican people and about 1800 Haitian people. Since January 2012, Volunteers have been working an impoverished Haitian community, particularly people living in the Middle Batey, or sugarcane workers camp. (These people were laid off years ago from cutting sugarcane and are now unemployed, uneducated, stateless and living in very poor conditions. Learn more about the history of the Dominican Republic sugarcane industry here.)
 
Village 12's holistic, self-guided training program identifies the needs of a community and designs projects to address those needs. They have many plans made for the small community and are in need of people like you to help meet their goals.

Current projects include:

Composting pile + tea

Outdoor kitchen

Mineral Hygienics All Natural Healthy Makeup

What if I told you that makeup can be all natural with only four ingredients?  Crazy right?  Not according to Christina Sanchez, who is a distributor of this great new natural makeup!

For those of you thinking of trying some new make up mineral makeup for the first time, you are in for a real treat! Mineral makeup is the latest breakthrough of the cosmetics industry. The idea is revolutionary, yet so simple: your skin is delicate and vulnerable, so whatever you put on it should be natural, organic and healthy. True mineral makeup contains no harsh dyes, no chemical additives or preservatives – just all-natural ingredients.

A real photo of Christina's Cousin wearing the all natural makeup. Look how healthy and radiant her skin is.

Beware of cosmetics companies out there that call their product “best mineral makeup” even though they include chemical additives such as bismuth oxychloride, propylparaben, and methylparaben. (Can't even say those words!) These chemicals can irritate the skin and cause breakouts. At Mineral Makeup N Jewelry, Christina refuses to carry those brands. All the mineral makeup that she sells over at  MineralMakeupNJewelry.com is 100% natural, hypoallergenic,  and gentle to even the most sensitive skin.
 
Check out their  natural makeup which is made of only four ingredients: mica, titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, and iron oxides. That's it! No harsh chemicals, no dyes -- just pure, natural minerals that feel light as air and gentle on your skin. There you can find  healthy makeup foundation, mascara, eye shadow, eyeliner, blush, lipstick, and other cosmetics in a rainbow of colors so you can choose precisely the right shade to flatter your coloring, complement your skin, lips, and eyes, and bring out your own unique beauty.
