Our vision and mission for this blog

Ah, the thrill of launching into a new venture!
Welcome, readers, to Stephen & Carolyn's new blog page.
This blog is, as its name states, about Green/Design/Works. Each word contains a subset of concepts we will endeavor to promulgate throughout the life of this blog.
Green:Green is fast becoming a primary driver for 21st century living.
Issues of sustainablity, footprint, renewability, community, local-sourcing, all of course come immediately to mind when one encounters the word "green" these days. However, we take a more holistic view of green, one that also involves a person's choices regarding lifestyle, physical and mental health, relationships, spiritual as well as material pursuits, community inclusion and participation, ethics. Green is a mindset.
Design:Design is what we're about, what we do and strive to do well. This effort is not only individual, and this page is far from being limited to the showcasing of our ideas. If there is one resource that is inexhaustible in our world, it is the creativity of its inhabitants. There is no limit to the power of imagination, and we propose to be a vehicle, a forum for the creative expression of responsive solutions to people's needs. Ideas, people, trends, technologies: we desire to become a sounding board for innovative concepts that will serve our neighbors and the globe.
Works:Works involves the venues of creative green design. Individuals, associations, companies, products: any and all entities and things that contribute to the physical, psychological and environmental well-being of our readers and the diverse communities they belong to deserve highlighting here.
We hope to provide stimulating content to you, dear readers, content that will give you ideas, food for thought, inspire you, engage you. We look forward to a stimulating and rewarding relationship with all of you, who like us seek new paradigms for living responsibly in our changing 21st century landscape. So, welcome, and enjoy; we're here to serve you, and look forward to your comments and suggestions as to how we can do this in a way that focuses on your needs and aspirations. Thank you!
