Author of "Hot, Flat and Crowded", Thomas Friedman talks to Tom Brokaw about how “E.T. (Energy Technology) is going to be the next IT, the next great industrial revolution.” He describes how America needs to be at the forefront, because "which country dominates...that industry will have the most security, the most respect, the most competitive industries and the most healthy population."
Definitely interesting food for thought!

Coco-Zen powers up with renewable energy from Village Green
Did you know that each one of us can measurably help to produce more renewable energy and decrease the amount of consumed fossil fuels?
By purchasing Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) we can force utility companies to source out more renewable energy and push it onto the power grid. An individual can purchase RECs for a little as $5!!! That covers 200 kWh of power which is what the average individual consumes at home in a month. Click here to learn more about RECs and how they work.
Coco-Zen is proud to join the growing number of businesses, universities and individuals that have made the switch to renewable energy. This list includes Whole Foods Market, New York University, and Al Gore(!!!). We purchased RECs from Green Village Energy for 6,000 kWh to cover our power consumption for the upcoming year...and, yes, we plan to continue purchasing every year.
Each one of us can make a difference!
