What is Disruptive Innovation? The theory of disruptive innovation was first coined by Harvard professor Clayton M. Christensen in his book The Innovator’s Dilemma, published in 1997. The theory explains how innovation transforms an existing market or sector by introducing simplicity, convenience, accessibility, and affordability where complication and high cost are the status quo.  Initially, a disruptive innovation is formed in a niche market that may appear unattractive or inconsequential to industry incumbents, but eventually the new product or idea completely redefines the industry. Today we'll discuss past innovations that have made our lives easier and are more commonplace.  In addition, I'll discuss some of the technologies, though positive,  that are making waves.

The number of Americans who could be displaced by rising seas will triple by the end of this century. That’s the new conclusion of scientists who studied the impact of climate change on coastal areas.  The U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration predicts sea levels could rise  8 inches to 6.6 feet by 2100, depending on the speed and extent of polar ice melt As many as 13.1 million people in the United States will be in the path of flooding by 2100, three times the current population that resides in low-lying coastal areas. Researchers estimate that 4.9 million people could be forced from the coasts if the seas rise 2.95 feet, and coastal areas don' take protection measures such as dikes or man-made buffer island. The number displaced could balloon to 13.1 million if seas rise 5.9 feet.  Although we won't be around to see this devastation, we have the ability to stop it for the coming generations. .  

Men & Women have all been raised in the same society. They have been taught the same way: that men don’t express their feelings. Guys always told to suck it up and move on. It creates a lot of pressure on the home front. Perhaps it is time for this myth to be exposed as wrong.

Fracking is the process of drilling down into the earth before a high-pressure water mixture is directed at the rock to release the gas inside. Water, sand and chemicals are injected into the rock at high pressure which allows the gas to flow out to the head of the well. The entire fracking process — from drilling a well to dealing with the resulting toxic waste endangers our water and the health of our communities. I will discuss the evidence of the growing damage caused by fracking.:   About The Host: Roxanne Pappas is the Host of Wicked Green Energy, a show, dedicated to educating individuals about cutting edge green choices for the sustainability of our planet.

My discussion last month with Ed Kenny was so informative that I wanted to replay it this week. So I cleaned up the audio a bit and tweaked it here and there.   With the deregulation of the telecom industry in the 1990s, Ed and his brother Brenden were in the right place at the right time and created a powerful business as Nextel distributors. They never thought they could strike gold again, but after being presented the Viridian business opportunity in February 2010, they knew it was possible.   Because of Ed's hard work he has been able to participate in Viridian's 7 Continents in 7 Years program which is the mainstay of Viridian's global efforts  About The Host: Roxanne Pappas is the Host of Wicked Green Energy, a show, dedicated to educating individuals about cutting edge green choices for the sustainability of our planet.
