• The Breet Report – Short Term Profits Equals No Long Term Goals

      0 comments

    Businesses have an equal responsibility to the environment.  In the quest to “take while you can and no thought of the future,” businesses have seen profits and then folded when the heat was on due to illegal acts. (Take your pick or examine the coal mining business.) With multiple sites on the net that promote awareness to the environment and how beautiful it is, plus the benefits of reduce, reuse, recycle – why, oh why are profits still so important?  Are businesses banks?  Nope. They just want a piece of the pie and willing to justify a means to an end.

    The other day a question was presented, something to the effect of “why the wardrobe was not updated?”  In order to “update,” there is a need to go to the businesses and promote the abuse on nature and people.  The stories of sweat shops and environmental disasters, have not been forgotten.  Should the improvements of conditions, and abolishment, of forced labor disappear – sure there would be a desire to “update” the wardrobe.

    What does this all mean?

    Businesses rely on people being forgetful and are happy to have no attention given when a scandal breaks out.  Has there been any other news about the peanuts issue at the Georgia plant?  Has there been any other news about the soda factors in China causing environmental issues?

    The laundry list of business as usual, even within government, is a long “who done it and got away with it.”  Individuals have been distracted with a divide and conquer scheme to test the stress limits.  (Raise of hands from those that are not stressing?  Raise of hands who aren’t?)  While the stress is equally felt (an assumption that is seen on the faces out in public)- the need exists for all individuals to remember, cutting corners is dangerous.  The organic bodies health is at stake, plus the environment – that which gives all life.  Before shopping for convenience, remember the facts; it boils down to still driving the status quo or not.

  • The Breet Report – Sharing The Happy News!

      1 comment

    I bet everyone has been wondering why the usual two to three posts have declined to one a day…. Well, life has had quiet a few surprises for me lately, and I have been very happy for them. I had been debating on putting a “plug” out on here because I didn’t want to pollute The Breet Report with distractions. So pesky. Okay, so here it is…

    Can you tell I’m nervous…?

    Technorati launched their revamped site, as of October 15th, 2009. The improvements have been phenomenal. Instead of reinventing the wheel, read all about it here. ;)

    The creative part of course (if you read the article) has been that they are exposing bloggers to the world! Technorati has featured content – from bloggers – instead of just the typical thumbing through till something “pops out at ya” blog. So, Yes…….I was one of the lucky ones that got selected.

    Exciting news!!! Here is my article, The Three R’s of The Environment.

    This week has been a great week getting to know other fellow writers. They offer knowledge in different fields and ideas that they want to cultivate. Like a sponge, I have been taking it all in, and want to learn more — so, I can’t wait.

    – It doesn’t stop there. –

    While nail biting to see if my article would be published or not (because -well it’s me – so it is the environment, then marketing, and well one other area), I got a reply to another application submitted for work. On the day of the launch, I received another email offering a position here in Richmond, Virginia. My first article for the site has been published as of yesterday…(I did not know till I got the email the site was live…Holy Smokes!)

    Yup, I about had a mini heart attack – then increased nail biting. LOL -

    So, with the pressure on (so to speak) because I have been working at this part-time for a while, and full-time for (now) a solid two weeks, I have really been doing lots of self-training. READING. Lots and lots of reading. Then had self doubt – blah, blah, blah – Then I reminded myself of The Breet Report.

    Here on The Breet Report, I have really dove into a number of aspects relating to self – to look beyond – to start small and build – to think more and not do what has been done but go beyond it and respect changes. By golly – this might have been a hell of a week (and it is not over at Friday, 5 PM, EST) but I got over the moments of self doubt.

    This – working together – putting hope back out in the public. Giving people more to look forward too then 8 to 5, off on weekends, rinse/repeat, mundane tasks of living – to actually engage together for life.

    So, be gone self-doubt! This is The Breet Report letting the world know that aspects of the environment, changes, and creating newer ways of helping each other are here to stay.

    We need a change in the depressing news and it starts here. My steps might be small and unsure at first, but I am bound and determined to be more than I ever thought possible.

    So, anyone have any other suggestions? ;)

    Currently, I am getting ready to join a few organizations and start a few projects of my own in the community. Smalls steps. Small, wonderful, and peaceful steps to prove anything can be done.
