“On October 15th, bloggers around the web will unite to put a single important issue on everyone’s mind - the environment. Every blogger will post about the environment in their own way and relating to their own topic. Our aim is to get everyone talking towards a better future. Blog Action Day is about MASS participation. That means we need you!”

Podcast: Interview with Tamara Giltsoff, MD, OzozLab, Ozocar

There are 3 ways to participate create, pay or talk. I’ve created a pod cast interview with Tamara Giltsoff, facilitated by Daniele Fiandaca (Creative Social). Tamara writes for green / sustainability blog treehugger.com. Treehugger ranks 17th on Technorati and is a real destination site for these issues.

She is also MD of OZOlab.

“My passion, and goal, is to create new businesses that will rock this world and challenge the current paradigm of business practice. OZOlab is the platform for me to do this.”

OZOlab is a fascinating mash-up of eco business creation and incubation. Ozocar, a hi-tech New York limousine service using hybrid cars, is the first in a planned portfolio of businesses.

Tamara explains her motivation for ozocar and covers a range of topics including her view on Al Gore’s The inconvenient truth, how marketing and environmentalism make a perfect storm and, most uplifting for bloggers, her faith in the power of conversation.

James Cooper, on Three Minutes of Happiness, raised the question that I had on my mind :

“I have a hunch it will take more than Dave but a loose collaboration of bloggers from around the world with something to say could be the start.”

Tamara gives an inspirational view that should encourage us all to believe in the ultimate power of conversation as an engine for change.
