Green Pathfinders Appeal to American Citizens to Take Specific Actions
LOS ALTOS, CA June 25, 2007
Personal Life Media™, Inc. a publisher of lifestyle content in the form of 15 weekly audio programs, podcasts and blogs for people on the leading edge of culture, showcases a special series on "Living Green: Effortless Ecology for Everyday People" an advertising and sponsorship-supported free podcast. Hosted by Meredith Medland, founder of 3outcomes.com and environmental blogger, Meredith confabs with professionals in the ecology and sustainable-living arena who have special requests for Americans who want to move to a more green way of life.
“Americans have varying levels of interest in the green movement and through my interviews and relationships with some of today's foremost experts on how to live a sustainable lifestyle, we believe if we ‘challenge’ American citizens by providing simple ways they can incorporate living green into their busy lives, we would see a shift in thinking that no matter how small or seemingly insignificant a change is, it will make a difference,” said Meredith Medland, Founder of 3outcomes.
Each week, Meredith's guests provide one “small change” that American consumers can use to begin creating a healthier planet. These simple requests from experts include:
¨ Dan Ruben, Executive Director, Boston Green Tourism “Calculate your carbon footprint and make plans to reduce it by at least 10% per year for the next three years. If your lifestyle is like the average American, this won't be difficult.”

¨ Rowan Gabrielle, President, URTH.tv – “Re-think the way you dress. Buy or make at least one organic outfit that you either love the color, style or fabric and live in it to see how it makes you feel.

Know that in making a change in your clothing, you are making yourselves a walking embodiment of change.” http://personallifemedia.com/podcasts/224-living-green/episodes/2923-rowan-gabrielle-an-ecopraneur-who-defines-what-it-means-to-be-living-green-
