Eco Chic Closedown.

Eco Chic and AJ will no longer be updating this site. I am so sorry.

It’s been a very long journey and I thank all those who have supported me with my work, events and networking over the last 5 years.

There have been many opportunities that I worked very hard to achieve an end eco goal, albeit there were many parts or in a business sense, business facets of the eco business model that I single handily created, nevertheless, there was only great inspiration from Dame Anita, Dale Vince, and a handful of other great pioneers cross sector, that really made me want to strive to be an Ambassador for creating a peaceful, yet business, a sensible revenue business to help the other people and businesses. I wanted only to be a small part of a huge eco cog, that was ethical, and in the main a fair trade business including music, merchandise, online portal etc of bringing better products to market. For the old reference tools you can goto my original site where the first eco magazine for UK eco was published in 2004. http:www.o2m.co.uk (oxygen and music).

I am very sorry, yet I have to admit I failed miserably! It wasn’t though without having a great memorable journey that will stay within my heart forever. My soul will carry the words of kindness and wisdom that so many people I met along my alone journey, that had ideals akin to my own.

I am certain that my eco work will no longer continue, but my spiritual holistic knowledge has lead me to a greater awareness of our beautiful world. I will continue to search for the enlightenment that has been sparked within me, and to be able to have a life that is a different path now, yet a more in-depth journey for me and my child. I hope you all find as many great eco companies to support. I am sure in my small way I helped start a memory in others hearts and minds, from large corporations to small tiny businesses. I do so very much wish you the very best on all your eco work, long may it survive. I am certain there are many more great things in store for us all.

I am going to a new journey, to search deeper understanding of the greater enlightenment that I am proud and honoured to know that exists within the real world. I hope you all stay eco and chic!
I leave you with this on an eco tip:

G.Finance article- L'Eco Homme

Good news came this week in the press, highlighted by the New York Conference this week, as there are many new articles and initiatives, which are cross - highlighted areas that I also am looking at within my three part series. It is of course now a subject that is the hot media topic, which will only run and run with more information and editorial available, as we wizz up to the scary Copenhagen deadline.

Global Green Finance (part one) explores areas where I feel eco and the city can mix, to provide solutions for our earth. I look forward to publishing a second edition of L'Eco Homme and including this article in full within the magazine.

Fiscal Trading & Policy for the Earth - FTPE - is really exciting and I hope looks with wonderment at the earth, our banks, and global corporations. The mechanisms for trade will change slowly towards a greener alternative, and this is exciting. Their are many people looking to publish ideas, of course - which I am only one. I just hope to contribute to this debate with thoughtful ideas and sincere planetary focus.

Banking Awards highlight J.P Morgan - CITY

I was pleased to see the banking awards online this week, and that JP Morgan had won many. Their climate change sister portal ClimateCare has some inspirational projects, and you can view one project in particular that grabbed my attention - This is the top article in the REAL EARTHY section at EcoChicLife, to read more please visit my online magazine:

Regarding the G Finance Article, I hope to get a paragraph or two of my edited version of this, "Global Green Finance" (G.Finance) on here soon. Within this I will take a closer look at J.P Morgan and their global aspirations for change.

July event NEWS!

Local important feedback in the last week has been brought to my attention from our 3rd EcoChic event.

- One eco car has been purchased!
- One of the health experts has had amazing success with treatments, wonderful news.
- Many of you are keeping the links going, and looking at your purchasing choices in a totally different way.. a planet friendly one!

Keep the good work up people, its all great!

TIME magazine - The biggest brand in the world is....

Drumroll.

I immediately thought as I read this title on a RSS feed, it cant be this company, it must be this one, I actually spent a moment or two, going through them all - so geeky, sorry! I love branding!

After all, working in media in London all my twenties and in my music life, we were key to the launch of Miller Lite - in the UK, so, I thought easy, I would have the answer.

Sadly, I am online too much and so dedicated to eco! I have not seen a copy of Media industry magazines for a year or so. My sturdy and reliable companion, Campaign, and other media news, apart from MW, keeping me in the eco finance world, and the FT, meant my answer was not correct.

I thought Google. Huge, Green, Online, trendy... low carbon, the new high/clean tech society...underpinning the vast online activity. Energy efficiency, totally Google. My brain dongle needs fixing, of course it is the one and only! Coke.

How could I have ever thought of anything else. My humble excuse is that my eco world had sadly meant they were not in my top 5. Yet, I add hopefully.

Speakers SOS

It is important for me to contact as many people as possible who may be available for keynote speeches at my events. I wanted to put the SOS out online.

The Eco Chic Events always have the core speakers on Love and Planet. I always start the evenings with my personal and indepth keynote address to my dear guests and also introduce to you the body of topics that our other fine speakers will include. Many of you on this site, will perhaps not have attended an event, as these are invitation, ticket only, non press events. - If you wished to be part of the evening, the running time for after dinner keynote speeches runs for over an hour, with a get together, meet and greet, and mingle with our guests at the end of the evening.

We start at 7.30 pm and run through til 11.00 pm. Yet even though these are always on a Thursday evening and I don’t think I have managed to leave my guests until 1am at the earliest! The events are a forum for local business networking, yet, it is often the earth led, and global climate questions that get my chatting on a one to one basis into the small hours.

Contacting Eco Chic Girl

It has been a very busy week out and about as usual with my EcoChic Work, it is a busy whirlwind online and offline that I live in.

Saving the Planet is my only priority and to do this I meet many people in my social networking schedules.

I am on Twitter, and many online networking sites.

Much of my work I am contacted online for, and for this reason I am having to protect much of my online activity from this month as the articles I am publishing will be in mainstream press before Christmas.

I will still be updating my blog and also my website EcoChicLife. As though the movement still is trying to link together, there are many people and business's that are following me on Twitter and I have had to lock my tweets as this is an intense period of writing, where I must limit my online activity for best business practice. I apologise for this situation. This is an exciting time for future eco planetary ideals and solutions - I sinerely hope to meet many more of you in the future, and look forward to saving the planet together with you all.
