Me and My Views

I suppose I had better start be telling my story! My new life started in 2004 when I had a triple heart bypass operation. I came around from this revived and rejuvenated! My energy returned, apparently something to do with oxygen getting to the body and brain in quantities it was not managing before. I had a new unexpected life and a normal life expectancy; so I wondered what to do next?I wanted to give something back to the world, to try and help make the world a better place for future generations. So much is wrong with the world and all that was needed was to join together people's wishes and adjust the way our society was run. So was born http://www.yourtomorrow.co.uk/ a website aimed at building a community of like minded people who would express themselves on issues they cared about and use their spending power for the better future of the world. We would sell "ethical gifts", after all the majority of my discretionary spending was on presents for family and friends, now that my family were grown up and independent.We built the website using seven ideas, represented on the website by Eco Icons; things that we felt would contribute to a better world and we cared about. They are not exclusive, but they are a start. If we all took their aims seriously we would help solve environmental problems, create a fairer more equal world, give small traders a chance against giant corporations and provide more choice in the high street, avoid harmful and damaging chemicals and help our youngsters develop their skills and talents. I think I shall spend the next seven blogs explaining each of these Eco Icons and my views on them. However, many people disagree with my aims and objectives, indeed my involvement in any of this. If you have any views or opinions about this then this is the place to say so!
