About Our Company

California Green Solutions helps business leaders find green solutions for business sustainability

Find green business solutions

"California Green Solutions" is a regional solutions platform that connects people who buy green solutions with providers of green and sustainable solutions.

We make it easier to work green.

California Green Solutions is a regional, specialized business news and information company. We give visibility to regional companies, public agencies and nonprofit organizations who provide sustainable products and services in California.

Our green communications platform provides outreach, advertising and sponsorship for green and efficient business development.

As of March 2008, we serve 25,000 pages/month to eager business readers, and send our informative newsletter to 6,000 business leaders.

  • 24/7 News, Links and Feature Stories
    about Green & Sustainable Solutions

  • Online, E-mail and Phone communications

  • Free E-mail Newsletter for outreach

  • Educational Events for business and professional development

  • Marcom Creative for green businesses

Our mission is to provide practical support for people who are greening their businesses. We research, strategize, write, design and deliver sustainable marketing communications regionally to the California marketplace.

Communications and green marketing for sustainable business California is recognized globally for our innovative solutions -- and we attract readers globally, as well. And national readership stretches from Alaska to New York and all states between.

You can support our efforts by sending us tips and stories about your green and sustainable solutions; advertise in our media to strengthen our ability to report quality green solutions; and tell your colleagues about our resource center. Together. Together we can educate our leaders in business, nonprofits and community about smart options for thriving.

What's different about us is that we focus on in-depth information about SMALL and MEDIUM ENTERPRISES (SME). Traditional media doesn't do either of those! If this is your community, work with us to spread the word about green solutions.

  • We support regional sustainability for communities, businesses and workplaces.
  • We help businesses find local green products and services.
  • We maintain a large database of green-related, and green-compliant business niches
  • We provide integrated B2B outreach services: newsletters, email campaigns and outreach events.
  • Carolyn Allen participates in the green jobs infrastructure as a volunteer member of the Industry Intelligence Group of California’s GREEN Workforce Coalition; and as a member of the Green Advisory Board for the California Conservation Corps.

California Green Solutions connects small, medium and large companies with sustainable resources -- largely in the California market. We include businesses, nonprofit organizations and government/public programs in our business community to strengthen community sustainability.

Our CALIFORNIA GREEN SOLUTIONS platform focuses on growing the common sense approach to business -- green operations, facilities and products impact business ROI. We help companies find those smart choices. We also provide information about compliance to assist local and regional businesses:

  • reduce production and operation costs
  • take positive steps to save energy
  • conserve and improve water resources
  • provide quality working conditions for employees
  • turn compliance into a smart competitive advantage
  • find new markets for green products and services

Due to the heavy urbanization of coastal California, our natural resources of air, water and land (including vegetation and wildlife) are stressed. Many of the point-source pollutants like chemical dumps or smokestacks have now been identified and have been, or are being improved.

The next challenge is the "non-point source" pollutants created by the 20+ million people living and working in our communities. These pollutants are hard to identify or control -- they include urban runoff that kill our streams and the ocean; air pollutants from automobile traffic that creates respiratory problems for our vulnerable neighbors; the heavy (and expensive) use of energy, and the web of inefficient or polluting products that are taken for granted in our daily lives.

When leaders can find effective, efficient solutions to their challenges, they have both the desire and ability to make significant improvements in both their own, and their community's quality of life.

Remember how we rallied to recycle paper and bottles? And how we rally every time there is a community disaster such as a flood? America does it and we do it well -- when there is a practical way to achieve results.

California Green Solutions provides connections to green business processes and products through our programs and publications.

  • We provide articles about potential options and solutions.
  • We maintain a directory of providers of sustainable goods and services.
  • We support business teams -- entrepreneurs, managers and board members -- who need a vision and a pathway to research the new world of sustainability and green compliance challenges.

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has. Margaret Mead

Call us if you're committed to sustainable business, and if we can work together to green our workplaces and communities.

We provide cutting-edge information and strategies for our clients and on-going, extensive research into the latest green business trends, information, and case studies that help businesses, nonprofits and public organizations find practical green solutions.

Publisher, Solutions For Green

Together we work to improve air quality so that 9% of our children and our elderly citizens no longer get asthma and lung cancer from emissions, and so that we all have access to nutritious, pollutant free food. And together, we can reduce water pollutants and inefficiences so that we can have sufficient clean, fresh water to take care of our growing population.

So, if you feel that clean air, water soil affect the quality of our California communities, we invite you to join us in making one important change at a time. Working together we can truly make a positive difference in Southern California's quality of life.

Should you have any legal, compliance, or health care-related questions or concerns, please call or see your personal service providers.
