In his report on the economics of global warming in 2006, Sir Nicholas Stern calls climate change a “market failure on the greatest scale the world has seen”. Then the economy failed, and our collective eye got further off the ball. Maybe it’s time for one small change a day? That’s what we think here at BALANCE Organizing Services based in ultra eco-friendly San Francisco.
In the seven years since opening her Professional Organizing practice in San Francisco, Nancy Castelli has morphed into a Save-the-Planet zealot. Yet her authentic and intuitive approach is really about getting her clients organized. “Getting organized is all about sustainability”, Nancy quotes in a book she co-authored (Get Organized Today). “Putting the stuff that doesn’t serve you back out into the Planet to serve someone else is simply the right, sustainable thing to do.” Nancy brings a refreshing perspective to the long-begrudged task of finally getting organized, making it about the planet and living a sustainable life, rather than making it about you and your past transgressions around clutter. Her planet-friendly advice and philosophy will have you clearing out your closets, liberating yourself of stuff, and minimizing your planet-footprint in no time.
To celebrate seven years in business, and to help her clients and followers launch optimistically into the spring cleaning season, Nancy has put together a 30-day virtual event series chock full of daily inspiration, moments of brillance and practical, executable tips to eliminate clutter in a sustainable way. If you haven’t had a good excuse to clear your clutter, well, you just got one! Do it for the planet’s sake.
How to Get Organized and Save the Planiet in 30 Days starts Sunday, April 22nd, apropos that it is also Earth Day 2012. It is a 30-day virtual event series to help you get organized in a sustainable way and serve the planet. Smart and illuminating daily updates include:
