My Mission & Approach

“We need work that doesn’t endanger the health of workers, communities or consumers of the products manufactured. We need a world in which business is accountable to the communities that it affects in all ways.” —Dr. Ann Blake

“The more clearly we can focus our attention on the wonders and realities of the universe about us, the less taste we shall have for destruction.”

—Rachel Carson, Silent Spring
