The platform provides the community with the ability to search and navigate a news event by location and category, to share and to have a discussion around it, to emotionally connect with each other’s perspectives and complete the human story. allvoices is an open and highly relevant social media site “unedited by humans”, where anyone can report and add their voice from anywhere.

GreenNurture – Achieving Sustainability Goals
http://www.greennurture.com/

The GreenNurture mission is to provide the most revolutionary turn-key solution for organizations to achieve their sustainability goals by using the power of the web to unlock their most valuable resource – the collective intelligence of their people – to resolve the challenges in “going green” and realize positive yields in full-cost accounting. GreenNurture engages and empowers the people that comprise a company to take environmental action to directly improve the environment and their company’s bottom line. They actively engage the participant by asking them what they think should be done in their job, department, company to achieve greater sustainability. They provide the tool by which anyone in the company can make valuable suggestions…and be heard. Their system is centered on user-generated feedback. Plus, they track the results and provide in depth reports to back up the actions taken. In addition, GreenNurture has developed a Green Action Index which uses a proprietary algorithm to provide a standardized method to gauge an organization’s environmental actions. The GAI emblem sits on your organization’s web site and links to a public profile page that shows off your sustainability efforts.
