Your Green Portal provides a pathway to be inspired by the positive actions of our guests and the initiatives and organizations they represent to make our communities and our world more sustainable in creative and innovative ways.

Why create Your Green Portal?

My favorite professional role in life is to highlight the good work others are doing. I consider myself a ‘conversational journalist.’ This radio show allows me the opportunity to document and lift up local sustainability heroes who are going above and beyond to give back and contribute to the greater good.

Whether the guests have decades of experience or young, new perspectives – I relish in their insight on how to tackle the current issues that challenge us.

They inspire me. I hope they inspire you.

This website was developed to provide an entry into discussions on how to embrace sustainability in our own lives and communities.

Let’s engage in a conversation and learn from each other.

The hope is that through these dialogues, we can truly learn from each other and ignite the WILL to act toward sustaining our life on Earth.

Why focus on sustainability?

The need for sustainability is applicable to pretty much everything in our lives on a personal,  communal and global level. Long term sustainability of humans to survive on our planet affects everything we do. 

I honestly don’t know why we haven’t found the WILL to move forward on practical solutions to the urgent crisis of climate change.

I believe that the best way to ignite this WILL  is to lift up examples of why and how this matters to all of us.

I believe we need to welcome discussions on what we have in common instead of what separates us.

I believe we need to embrace civil dialogue, truth, integrity, science, and compassion.

I believe that we need to act now, urgently, to re-think everything: We have much to discuss!

Tune in and let’s learn from each other how best to nurture This precious planet we call home.
