Hi,
I am meeting with one of your partners, Christopher Peck, Friday, here in California. We have some mutual interests around green investing.

I just met one of the founders of a very interesting company with initiatives in Hawaii, www.humdingerwind.com....Kurt Kornbluth.....He has a new paradigm for harnessing wind power that lowers the cost for smaller installations and the third world....

Kindly,

Kathleen Nemetz, investments manager, Amerprise Financial

Aloha Aaron,
My firm, Natural Investments LLC (www.naturalinvesting.com), manages client portfolios that are invested exclusively in companies, financial institutions, and infrastructure projects worldwide that are screened according to investor values. This way people can stay away from that which they find ethically objectionable, but more importantly, it's how we channel capital towards a more sustainable future. By investing in greener technologies, renewable energy, organic foods, recycled and biodegradable products, non-toxic building materials, natural fibers, etc, we can create a civilization which does not pollute and which can generate wealth without so many harmful consequences.

While this is my profession, here on the Big Island I also volunteer my time to help local businesses adopt these same sustainability practices via the Kona-Kohala Chamber of Commerce's Kuleana Green Business Program, which recognizes qualifying businesses for their exceptional commitment to their employees, customers, community, and environment. Visit www.kona-kohala.com/kuleana-green-business-program.asp for more information and to see the list of member businesses. We recently had our annual conference, which was one of the many events of the Kona Earth Festival, which I co-founded and also steward. Visit www.konaearthfestival.org for info on the Kuleana Business Conference & Trade Show and the other eco-awareness events over a 6-week period.

I'd love to present what I do to the Tech Hui sometime - I'm about all things sustainable....

Please do! You are welcome to use the blog (click "Add New Blog Post" at the top) or post on the renewable energy group. The next time there is a general meetup I will send you a note. Are you on Oahu?
