Green Globe International, Inc. (Pink Sheets:GGII), the worldwide
owner of the Green Globe brand, today announced that it has joined
the Sustainable Business Council of Los Angeles (SBCLA) as part of
its expressed desire to develop a presence within the Los Angeles
green business community. Green Globe International is a member of
the strategic partnership contracted to deliver a green business
certification program for the city of Los Angeles.
The SBCLA is a non-profit organization, which provides events,
networking, and advocacy programs for sustainable businesses,
entrepreneurs and executives throughout Los Angeles. The SBCLA
holds bi-monthly forums that offer sustainable business
professionals in the Los Angeles area the chance to connect with
each other in an intimate, confidential setting to discuss the
issues, opportunities and business models impacting the
world. Forum meetings allow members to present their
businesses and raise specific issues they are facing in order to
get feedback and advice from fellow council members. With a
range of skills, expertise, knowledge and successes across many
industry sectors, SBCLA forums can provide critical perspective and
support, as well as the opportunity for additional networking
within Los Angeles' green community. More information on the
SBCLA can be found at www.sustainablebc.org.
"I am pleased to announce Green Globe's association with the
SBCLA," said Steven R. Peacock, CEO and Managing Director of Green
Globe International, Inc. "This is a very important
organization, since it brings together members of the green
business community in Los Angeles, which is a critical component,
along with building consumer awareness, in developing a green and
sustainable economy in this region. I think Green Globe can be a
good partner within SBCLA in this endeavor."
The Green Globe brand and program, which traces its roots back
to the United Nations Rio de Janeiro Earth Summit in 1992, where
182 Heads of State endorsed the Agenda 21 principles of Sustainable
Development, has primarily been used in the travel and tourism
industry but is now being expanded to include a growing number of
environmentally responsible businesses in a variety of market
sectors. The Green Globe brand is an ideal symbol for the world's
increasing awareness of environmental responsibility and response
to global climate change.
