Environmental Awareness & Orphanages
by Laura Thieme
Most of who you know me recognize my name as a search marketer, who talks about promoting database driven and ecommerce websites at Search Engine Strategies Conferences (SES). I’ve been running this business for 10 years, which continues to be extremely rewarding and challenging.
Over the Christmas holiday (2006), I had surgery and was home for a month. While I was able to work from my bedside, I had a little extra time on my hands. I watched Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth (see trailer on Google You Tube, or his website, www.climatecrisis.net) about global warming and climate change. I watched Emporers of the Ice, about the arctic ice shelf breaking off and cutting off the food supply for hundreds of thousands of penguins in the Antarctica.
The two movies combined with a month off enabled me to evaluate what I’m doing with my life and what I could might do differently. Most of those who know me are aware of another passion of mine, and my pursuit of volunteering at an orphanage for the first time this year. But my interest in the environment has increased dramatically since watching these two movies. The global warming crisis has reached its tipping point in recent weeks, as new reports have come out saying climate change is real.

I’m going to continue to post on the latest environmental reports, and any activities that I get involved in like the upcoming Arbor Day in Worthington, Ohio. I’ll have links to eco-friendly manufacturers, recycling centers, and other environmentally friendly websites in the coming weeks.
