The Federation of Saint Kitts and Nevis is a beautiful location in the West Indies. SGS Asset Management is a company that is located here. This area is the smallest sovereign nation in the Americas, and in July 2005, it had a population of 42,696 people.

Christopher Columbus came across Nevis in 1498 and named it San Martin. This location is full of freshwater and hot volcanic springs, which make these islands incredibly pleasing to the eye. Other than SGS Asset Management, this area is booming with business, especially in agriculture (bananas, yams, sweet potatoes, sugar products), textiles and drinks.

When my grandpa was alive, he would take me fishing all of the time, and I always seemed to catch sunfish, which I always put back. I’ll admit fishing was fun, but I always had to put the fish back in the water. Maybe I wasn’t the most passionate fisherman, but Sak Narwal knows everything about this hobby.

Fishing can be a rewarding experience, and it took Sak Narwal to some of the most amazing natural landscapes. He literally developed a bond with nature through fishing. Imagine that?

In order to help the environment, sometimes you have to help yourself out first. So when is the last time you got back to your spiritual roots? RENEW International is a Roman Catholic ministry dedicated to spiritual renewal.

Over the past three years, RENEW International has helped 25 million people in over 23 countries. If you’re more of a humanitarian, consider volunteering for an organization like this.

There are over 150 diocese of RENEW International in the United States, and they all have the same goal, which is met through programs that they plan every year. How do you see yourself making a positive impact on the world? Maybe it’s through helping one person at a time, or you might need to take step back and look at yourself first.

Is your garage door, storm door or security door out of date and falling apart? Maybe it’s time to replace it with something that’s attractive, durable and functional. K-Designers is currently having a limited time half off special on these remodeling projects.

Keeping your doors and windows up to date is important if you plan on keeping out the winter cold this year. K-Designers can help you choose a door to meet your needs. Why wouldn’t you want to invest in a new door that can save you money on your home’s energy bill?

If you need new windows too, check out what K-Designers has to offer. A new set of windows can change the look of your home and keep it well insulated for the coming fall and winter season.

Several years ago, I had difficulty wearing contacts because of my allergies and re-occurring eye infections. The solution was to wear disposable contacts, so every night I was throwing out a pair and every morning I was putting a new pair in. How wasteful was that solution?

Fortunately, my allergies stopped giving me problems and now I can wear 30-day contact lenses with no problem. However, for those of you who still have an issue, why not wear your eyeglasses? This can be an eco-friendly and money saving opportunity for you.

There are so many cool designs too. Check out Eyeglasses.com, because they have a wide variety such as retro, vintage, flexible, rimless, etc. The hardest decision about your switch will probably be choosing which frame to purchase!

How often do you take a taxicab? If you live in the busy Big Apple, this might be a daily occurrence. Although it’s more eco-friendly to walk as much as you can, sometimes you have no choice but to hail a cab. Fortunately, Amos Tamam has made taxicabs more innovative since the 1980s.

Amos Tamam started small by servicing taxicabs in New York City, but he is now the CEO of Verifone Transportation System, Inc. He changed the taxi industry by figuring out how to enable fleet owners to process credit cards as payment. How convenient is that, especially when you don’t have cash readily on you?

It will be interesting to see how the taxi industry evolves in the future. Maybe Amos Tamam might have some eco-friendly ideas up his sleeve?
