I'm seeking capitalization for an alternative business which serves women instead of consuming them, guys--not running for Senate. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyway, I finally asked Krishna why he gave me the first international green salon franchise...without the proper credentials.&amp;nbsp;He laughed so hard! "Badges are like bras. Most excellent for burning."&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
According to Krishna, it is capitalists who need Green Liberation Salon; and they&amp;nbsp;should be able to pass a litmus test. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div stylm="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The gods said no, Krishna. I must assume there are at least 10 better ways to "improve the first 20 years of human health" than fortifying women and children. Perhaps I should've proposed Up-Ending the Establishment, prior to &lt;a href="http://jungianwork.wordpress.com/2009/12/26/on-avatar-the-return-of-the-feminine-a-jungian-perspective/"&gt;Feminist Ecotopia. &lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1574792507803692683-8763452758681959448?l=www.greenliberationsalon.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Green Liberation Salon is a creative community health outreach program which transcends classes and borders to provide peri-natal through post-partum health services, and complementary/alternative health therapies to women and children. The “salon” is actually an extension of the inter-generational matriarchal support system which, when intact, cares for women and children when social circumstances or economic systems compound the challenges of bearing and raising healthy children, i.e., marital, housing, employment &amp;amp; childcare conflicts, separation, divorce, health crises, poverty, immigration, war, environmental disasters, displacement, misogyny, oppressive regimes, or religious laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Green Liberation's virtual salon with 3-D chat-rooms designed as luxurious relaxation rooms, apothecary, and eco-educational games promote lifestyles of health and sustainability to women and children around the world, while also providing support, referrals, and connections to meet needs outside of Green Liberation Salon’s scope. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Services. &lt;/b&gt;The brick and mortar salons (actually recycled ISBUs &amp;amp; SIPs) provide familiar personal care services which are eco-friendly and completely replace the need for toxic salon services, i.e. hair processes, manicures, pedicures, petroleum- chemically-based treatments. The nature-oriented setting allows for a natural segue to Green Liberation’s environmental health services for women, which also address a variety of factors that impact pediatric health and child development. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Childcare&lt;/b&gt;. Non-profit and cooperative childcare makes attendance possible for mothers who attend and/or work at the salon. All the children who play in the "Green Room" while their moms attend the salon, will be exposed to a way of life which assumes stewardship of environmental health.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Alternative &amp;amp; Complementary Health Spa&lt;/b&gt;. One-on-one health risk and lifestyle assessment, ongoing health &amp;amp; lifestyle support, environmental health education and referral services. Birth control and counseling. Nutritional counseling, obesity prevention, treatment, support, and referrals. Natural pain alleviation, such as acupuncture, acupressure, therapeutic massage for oncology, women’s peri-natal, pre-natal and post-partum health; and to treat “symptomatic” pediatric conditions. Detoxification from environmental and chemical toxins, i.e. air pollution, water pollution, noise pollution,&amp;nbsp; psychological pollution from primary or secondary environments; food and product pollution, from, for example chemically processed foods, chemical-laden personal care products, or regional environmental disasters. Sensory Therapies: sound, aroma, touch. Botanically-based therapies.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Pediatric Support from Infancy to 20~ &lt;/strong&gt;Children may receive holistic health care at Green Liberation Salon from infancy on. Innovative, yet, ancient practice and wisdom is made available to babies and mothers, and babies without mothers…in an environmentally-healthy setting (green, natural, comfortable, non-medical).&amp;nbsp; Babies without Borders: support and techniques for soothing, breastfeeding, feeding, weaning, transitioning infants and symptomatic children. Tips on Thriving: education about risks and prevention, as well as treatment for environmental illnesses based on regional and personal risk (genetic to social to economic factors), for example cancer, diabetes and heart disease. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Treatment for the symptoms of cancer and the side-effects of radiation and chemotherapy, i.e. pain, anxiety, loss of appetite, weakness. Indirect treatment of anti-social behaviors typical of children affected by ADHD, autism, and sensory processing disorder -- through supervised socialization of children at play in Green Liberation Salon’s dynamic, child-friendly setting, while mothers receive a dose of sustenance instead of the usual wallop of guilt, stress, and exhaustion for their efforts.&lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Recreation &amp;amp; Play. &lt;/b&gt;Green Liberation Salon’s unique concept and setting lends itself to imaginative play from computers in the Green Room, and the virtual salon to eco-educational software games. The green salon concept naturally translates into eco-friendly toys such as a Green Liberation Salon dollhouse, green tween and teen dolls who design/wear a green fashion line, eco-baby dolls, green construction kits for toddler builders, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Green Room&lt;/b&gt;. For childcare during business hours. Regional hubs will have temperature controlled climbing apparatus adjacent to the green room, which doubles as a rental space for classes and meetings after-hours.&lt;b&gt; &lt;/b&gt;Physical movement, not limited to yoga; prenatal classes, breastfeeding, feeding and weaning support, parenting classes, nutritional classes, environmental health education, and support groups: oncology, postpartum health, alcohol abuse, addictions, domestic abuse.&lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Referrals. &lt;/b&gt;Green Liberation Salon will receive high-risk referrals from obstetricians, oncologists, workplaces, colleges, high schools, mental health and crisis counselors, religious and other community support organizations; therefore these high-risk referrals might be paid for with national funds already set aside for women and children’s health; private fund-raising is an additional option to pay for short and long term care for high-risk groups – as treating these groups will have the most dramatically positive effect. As importantly, Green Liberation will refer clients to obstetricians, oncologists, jobs, educational resources, and other socio-economic specialists&lt;b&gt;.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Products&lt;/b&gt;. Non-toxic, eco-friendly daily essentials which completely replace toxic products: hair care, skin care, personal hygiene; household&lt;b&gt;: &lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;laundry and cleaning supplies, natural remedies to replace OTC drugs, supplements, herbs, and botanicals.&lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Opportunities&lt;/b&gt;. Mothers’ financial independence is often critical to their children’s health and safety. Green Liberation Salons create green jobs for women, young and old, skilled and unskilled; supports cooperative daycare for children; and arranges for education that aligns with women’s and children’s aspirations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Additionally, the micro-financing of cottage industries for eco-friendly products: textiles, fashion, accessories, natural health remedies, all-natural beauty, health, personal care, cleaning products, and organic herb cultivation are examples of goods for which Green Liberation might also create a marketplace. Finally, each Green Liberation Salon is an opportunity for ownership of a green small business&lt;i&gt;. &lt;/i&gt;Even small groups of women might purchase a salon.&lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Partnerships.&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp; Green Liberation would like to foster a childhood immunization program which ensures that the product does not also contain harmful byproducts causing worse side-effects than the eradicated disease. Green Liberation Salon does not claim a medical or scientific background, but would like to partner with those who do&lt;b&gt;.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Research &amp;amp; Development&lt;/b&gt;. Green Liberation Salon’s unique, yet re-creatable setting should be an excellent life lab to study environmental, sociological, cultural, pediatric phenomena.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The current model is planned for the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia and and is easily adaptable to meet women’s needs in emerging markets: India and China. I certainly hope a safe haven for pregnant and postpartum women, and at-risk children, will be tolerated by even the most oppressive regimes in Afghanistan, Iran, Africa.&amp;nbsp;I envision the salons&amp;nbsp;as bomb shelters sprinkling harsh terrains: a utilitarian blend of prefabricated freight containers &amp;amp;&amp;nbsp;recycled SIPs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PAST&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;b&gt;AND FUTURE PLANS&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

When I was around nine I read a children's magazine about "disposable" products such as lighters and diapers. The main idea was, if we go in the "disposable" direction as mass consumers, we are going to find ourselves in big trouble. I never forgot it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My mom was liberated when I was 12. She enjoyed wearing a large button encouraging uppity women to unite, and sent me to school with a home-made one that said, "Billie Jean's King!" She could bang some pots and pans, alright. She was an amazing cook and knew everything about nutrition. Unfortunately, she and Adele Davis, our main source of nutritional advice, died of cancer. I have a fear of cancer and it has really been increasing!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a young adult I began shopping at health food stores and continued to read avidly about diet and nutrition, which of course lead to information about food production, commercialization, mass consumerism, and I connected the dots to pollution.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Over a Christmas holiday spent at my parents I pulled Earth in the Balance, by Al Gore, from the shelves of finished books in the guestroom. I wasn't at all surprised by Gore's findings, but I was blown away by the courage it took for a privileged member of the establishment to expose the devastating truth about our commercially motivated, not to mention, revered "way of life."&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let me be clear:&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; I'll&amp;nbsp;tolerate religious differences and differences of opinion all, day, long. But don't expect me to feign tolerance of anyone who deliberately denies physical evidence--critical information--simply because it doesn't bolster religious sentiments or the pocketbooks of political affiliations. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
"Conservatives" have rhetoric, but government and science has data from the Idustrial Revolution to date! Hard numbers--which the polluters said we, the tree-huggers, hippies, freaks, you know, us un-believables, had to collect before they would stop their mass pollution. Well? I don't know about you but I don't expect Big Oil or Big Coal or Big Corps in general to give up the ghost anytime soon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So if I strike you as impatient, or even rude, you should know I've been waiting my whole life for US society to start practicing what it preaches. Our wonderful way of life doesn't depend on denial, it depends on everybody taking their hands away from their eyes, ears and mouths.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shouldn't we all cast our vote for &lt;a href="http://www.health-on-earth.com/"&gt;health on earth&lt;/a&gt;?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1574792507803692683-3918345347839461799?l=www.greenliberationsalon.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Ms. Chastain is also a Title I elementary school teacher in her own community. Her third graders are enthusiastic Green Libbers who envision their moms attending and working at the first Green Liberation Salon, while they play computer games in the Green Room. Anne is the mother of two young sons. Her surprise baby (at 44) was the inspiration for an eco-friendly salon with childcare.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
"Well, it might have had a little to do with the simultaneous explosion of the economy and my marriage while I was 'nesting'.&amp;nbsp; Before I conceived Green Liberation I was working toward the American Dream.

Common sense, scientific data, Greenpeace, and the media have generated a willingness in the general public to participate in the green movement, but government needs to do more than wag its finger at polluting corps, and fund insiders' projects. Socially responsible businesses and governments must work together to make environmentally-safe services, products, and programs affordable and accessible to all. Otherwise, the battle to reduce health disparities between upper and lower socioeconomic classes will be lost -- and our planet's temperature will continue to rise.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Green Liberation's actual salons and virtual salon with 3-D chatrooms designed to be luxurious relaxation rooms; facinating apothecary; and eco-educational games for children promote lifestyles of health and sustainability. Ultimately, this creative community health outreach program transcends classes and borders to provide practical, yet eco-friendly salon services, strictly green products, and complementary/alternative health therapies for women &amp;amp; our children. Green Liberation Salon is a source of support for women around the world as they pass through significant and often challenging life-stages.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I. KICK-START A SUSTAINABLE ECONOMY; PHASE-OUT FOSSIL FUELS&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The LOHAS industry&amp;nbsp;is estimated to mature into 3 trillion dollars annually&amp;nbsp;as the Millenial generation does. That figure tranlates into&amp;nbsp;green jobs in construction, renewable energy, technology, beauty salon and personal care services, alternative and complementary health, R&amp;amp;D, eco-manufacturing including packaging; distribution, mass communications, social media, and law. Examples of green stimulus, which sustains:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A. Green Liberation Salons are a brilliant blend of pre-fabricated, Earth-friendly structures with renewable energy sources, water conservation &amp;amp; filtration, green roofs, green landscaping—creating jobs in sustainable building, and renewable energy;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
B. Stimulates and sustains&amp;nbsp;the real estate, durable and consumer goods sectors;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
C. U.S. based manufacturing jobs of eco-friendly supply line, products and packaging (Green Liberation Brand) from new and established sources. Please refer to my entry: &lt;a href="http://greenliberationsalon.blogspot.com/2009/05/innovative-green-brand.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #33ff33;"&gt;1000's of Eco-Friendly Beauty, Health &amp;amp; Cleaning P...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: #33ff33;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
D. Cottage industries surrounding eco-friendly products: organic clothing, artisans, natural health remedies, all-natural beauty and personal care products, organic herb cultivation, etc.;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
E. Each and every Green Liberation Salon is an opportunity for ownership of a green small business. Units are to be strategically placed in low-, middle- and upper-income communities, owned and operated by people representing those socio-economies;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
F. The franchisor and franchisees prosper without taking advantage of Us-tomers or employ-We's.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
G. Green Goddess Salons, LLC and each Green Liberation Salon are business models of sustainable small businesses;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
H. The competition that Green Liberation poses to traditional industries speeds up related industry reforms, i.e. beauty salons; and personal care and cleaning product manufacturers and distributors, replacing petroleum-based services, products, packaging and delivery with eco-friendly services, products, packaging, and delivery. &lt;span style="color: lime;"&gt;One of the first things we will demonstrate is that&amp;nbsp;Unsumers will get in the habit of bringing their own bags if a seller simply does not provide them with plastic ones, and&amp;nbsp;spanks them out the door with a reminder to bring one's permanet bags next time!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I. The franchisor and franchisees create green jobs, and benefits valuable to many women:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Entry level to Specialized Positions for &lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: #f4cccc;"&gt;every&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/b&gt;age and degree of experience&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
a. Cleaning, Childcare&lt;br /&gt;
b. Nutrition Services&lt;br /&gt;
c. Clerical – Administrative&lt;br /&gt;
d. Bookkeeping – Accounting&lt;br /&gt;
e. Information Technology&lt;br /&gt;
f. Salon Service Providers&lt;br /&gt;
g. Buying&lt;br /&gt;
h. Mass Communications&lt;br /&gt;
i. Sales, Marketing &amp;amp; Promotion&lt;br /&gt;
j. Alternative &amp;amp; Complementary Health Practitioners&lt;br /&gt;
k. Counselors: mental health, nutritional, reproductive health, complementary health, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
l. Students: trade to professional&lt;br /&gt;
m. Social workers&lt;br /&gt;
n. Researchers&lt;br /&gt;
o. Manufacturers&lt;br /&gt;
p. Distributors&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Benefits&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
a. Internships and hands-on training for students in the beauty, health, science, social work, and business sectors&lt;br /&gt;
b. Green Cosmetology Licenses&lt;br /&gt;
c. Alternative and Complementary Health-related certifications&lt;br /&gt;
d. Flexible hours&lt;br /&gt;
e. Co-op childcare&lt;br /&gt;
f. Employee discounts on Green Liberation’s services&lt;br /&gt;
g. Employee discounts on eco-friendly products&lt;br /&gt;
h. Incentives and contests for measureable results of living green, healthy lifestyles&lt;br /&gt;
i. Green car discounts, green appliance discounts: phones, computers, kitchen &amp;amp; laundry appliances&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
II. NATIONAL HEALTH&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each Green Liberation Salon provides affordable services and products which actually contribute to the health of women and their families, as well as alternative and complementary health care services for women who may be suffering from:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
• Chronic Stress&lt;br /&gt;
• Chronic Pain&lt;br /&gt;
• Fatigue&lt;br /&gt;
• Depression&lt;br /&gt;
• Addictions (smoking, drugs, alcohol, food)&lt;br /&gt;
• Overuse of prescription and OTC medications&lt;br /&gt;
• High risk pregnancy&lt;br /&gt;
• Nutritional deficiencies&lt;br /&gt;
• Asthma and Allergies&lt;br /&gt;
• Inflammatory Diseases&lt;br /&gt;
• Osteoporosis&lt;br /&gt;
• Heart disease&lt;br /&gt;
• Cancer&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A. Services -- On-site childcare and a baby-holder in the central salon makes attendance possible for mothers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Salon -- These familiar personal care services are all eco-friendly and completely replace the need for traditional, high-impact salon services (hair processes, nails, hair removal);&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Alternative &amp;amp; Complementary Health Spa -- One-on-one Health &amp;amp; Lifestyle Assessment, Ongoing Health &amp;amp; Lifestyle Support, Education and Referral Services, One-on-one counseling, (including Nutritional counseling) and Support Groups;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
a. Accupuncture&lt;br /&gt;
b. Accupressure&lt;br /&gt;
c. Therapeutic Massage to address Chronic Pain, Chronic Stress; Oncology, Infertility, Peri-Prenatal, Post-Partum, and Pediatric conditions.&lt;br /&gt;
d. Hormone Testing, Counseling, Therapies&lt;br /&gt;
e. Detoxification from environmental and chemical toxins, i.e. air pollution, processed foods, chemical-laden personal care products&lt;br /&gt;
f. Botanical Therapies&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Green Room--This space is for childcare during business hours and doubles as a rental space after-hours. In addition to this green space which has access to the kitchen and bathroom, the front porch and side deck are two more green sites available for meetings in every community that has a Green Liberation Salon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
a. Movement &amp;amp; Meditation Classes&lt;br /&gt;
b. Prenatal Classes&lt;br /&gt;
c. Breastfeeding, Feeding and Weaning Support&lt;br /&gt;
d. Parenting Classes&lt;br /&gt;
e. Nutritional Classes&lt;br /&gt;
f. Support Groups-Oncology, Fertility, Postpartum, Menopause, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
B. Products - Eco-friendly Daily Essentials which completely replace Toxic Products and have built-in means of Recycling, Reuse, and Biodegradability&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Hair care&lt;br /&gt;
2. Skin care&lt;br /&gt;
3. Personal Hygiene &lt;span style="color: #33ff33;"&gt;(imagine if every female in the U.S., Canada, UK and Australia from 12-50 years old, used biodegradable menstrual products; and if every baby used biodegradable diapers and wipes) .&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: #ffccff;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;BTW I think it's discriminatory to make women pay taxes on feminine hygiene products. Men don't have to buy or pay taxes on feminine hygiene products.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;4. Household&lt;br /&gt;
a. Laundry&lt;br /&gt;
b. Cleaning&lt;br /&gt;
5. Natural Remedies to replace OTC drugs&lt;br /&gt;
6. Supplements&lt;br /&gt;
7. Botanicals&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
III. RESEARCH &amp;amp; DEVELOPMENT, CLINICAL TRIALS&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The salon, spa, and Green Room (childcare/after-hours rental space) could dual-serve as real life labs for important studies on women and children’s health as it relates to global climate change, the environment, the effects of each alternative/complementary healthcare service, and the products we use on our bodies and in our homes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="color: #33ff33;"&gt;Funding this proposal positively impacts global climate change by conveniencing consumers into habits which are healthy for US and the environment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1574792507803692683-8521133495526695082?l=www.greenliberationsalon.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

I described my eco-friendly beauty, health, and household products in too general of terms. I hadn't realized that the &lt;a href="http://www.uspto.gov/"&gt;US Patent &amp;amp; Trademark Office&lt;/a&gt; would require me to specify every single product I planned to carry under my brand. It was a now or never situation - - so - - what didn't I include! I think consumers should be able to choose an eco-friendly version of all of it, don't you?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a name='more'&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="border: medium none; clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="border: medium none; clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;When a customer purchases a product it should be like a handshake which implies a fair exchange. I promise that I haven't polluted the people's air, land and water to produce my effective products; nor do they provide exposure to harmful ingredients. The buyer is promising to take advantage of&amp;nbsp;the convenient possibilities for recycling packaging, and&amp;nbsp;re-using, or returning containers.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Obviously I don't have to sell everything under my trademark...but I could. I may develop an exclusive line of products intended for sale in Green Liberation Salons, a broad line for unlimited distribution, or something in between. At this point, Green Liberation will consider and test samples which meet the eco-friendly criteria below, from new and established sources.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #f4cccc;"&gt;Gentle Readers, unless you want to make or sell any of these items, you may want to explore other areas of my blog. This list is a real snoozer. The beauty is, there are literally 1000's of products and packaging that could replace toxic products and packaging. This list translates into opportunities for individuals, cottage industries, and green jobs in the U.S.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

They've got no nose for business...or elitism has blinded them. And maybe I'm too proud, but I'm down on the banks, too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a name='more'&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Green Goddess Salons, llc is seeking capitalists with enough foresight to saddle up now. Understandably, really, starting up a&amp;nbsp;typical salon may not sound very interesting, and whoever heard of starting a franchise&amp;nbsp;prior to&amp;nbsp;a prototype? Yes, we'd better get started, because unfortunately, there will never be enough Green Liberation Salons. Every town and Any town needs at least one to serve and support its mothers, health-conscious women, and our stressed-out, 21st c. children. The fact is: an international green salon franchise franchise can not be wrong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, I'm open to seed capital from the right investors, and banks. The financial requirement to fund both the prototype and the foundation of the franchise is minimal relative to the vast market Green Liberation Salons will serve: females 0-110, and our sons for as many years as they want, all across the US, Canada, UK and Australia...for a start. The cost of commercial property poses the biggest challenge. But the timing could be a lot worse.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for franchise sales, I know for a fact there are women who will move heaven and earth to buy a Green Liberation Salon, because I'm one of them. I'm happy to invest my tidy inheritance and rather measly retirement fund in a turn-key business that includes a green commercial building. It's not too hard to imagine how many women will recognize the extraordinary added value of self-selected, cooperative childcare in the Green Room during long business hours, not to mention a cleaning crew. Now add daily left-overs from the salon's organic menu. With or without children, the option of a second story flat to lease or set up housekeeping above their business will resonate with scores of women around the world. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Expect demand for regional hubs in progressive cities such as Sydney, London, LA, San Diego, NY, Miami, Tampa, Austin, Chicago, Minneapolis, Santa Fe, Denver, Boulder, Seattle, DC, and Vancouver.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those who are open to or are actively seeking a formulaic franchise which sells desirable services or products to the masses will find that Green Liberation Salon's setting, services and products are highly desirable to a mass market.

You&amp;nbsp;don't need an ivy league MBA to open a salon, or even to start a franchise; you need&amp;nbsp;a business&amp;nbsp;plan that&amp;nbsp;holds water&amp;nbsp;and a build-it-and-they-will-come concept like Green Liberation Salon. The prototype (first&amp;nbsp;regional hub)&amp;nbsp;is planned for Tampa and includes the green salon, health spa, apothecary, green room for child-play by day and rental studio after-hours. Website, Product, Virtual Salon, and radically edgy promotional strategies come with every salon purchase!&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0HgJ7Vx36NY/SxsQT3RBzfI/AAAAAAAAA3U/G_cHPWCSHXw/s1600-h/P1000388.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 0em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" er="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0HgJ7Vx36NY/SxsQT3RBzfI/AAAAAAAAA3U/G_cHPWCSHXw/s200/P1000388.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;My new baby and the first international green salon franchise began to compete immediately. Between breastfeeding, mothering, and the constant chores, I worked on my business plan. I registered Green Goddess Salons, LLC, opened a commercial bank account, secured a line of credit, applied for a trademark, and contacted a green architect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Recession or not, I thought, women need one or more of these services on a regular basis: haircuts, color &amp;amp; care, mani/pedi-cures, region/season-all skin care; and stress-relief. Green Liberation Salons provide a green, healthy alternative to all of the above. Since massage is such an essential part of physical care, we offer an entire menu of therapeutic massages, and specialize in prenatal, infant, and oncology massage. I've created a baby spa package, and we offer unique services for women who want to splurge. Green Liberation Salon gift cards make a wonderful baby shower gift. Encouragement to go green for the sake of our kids, our health and our planet is becoming ever-present. Earth Day, Mother’s Day, and Birth Day gift cards are guilt-free. Each Green Liberation Salon provides a comfortable, secure space for preggies, women, and children. A baby-holder in the salon and quality childcare behind the one-way mirror on the right is another first in the salon industry. (Since moms are always present—whether working or attending the salon—liability issues are greatly reduced.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;Unlike other franchises and the vast majority of independent salons, Green Liberation Salons follow environmentally sound building, packaging, recycling, disposal, and product stewardship. Green Liberation Salons are constructed with a combination of low-cost, sustainable ISBUs and recycled SIPs, pre-engineered with renewable, regionally specific energy sources. These affordable green construction kits (architectural plans, permits, and prefab building sets) are transported directly to each franchisees’ commercial lot. An experienced crew can set them up in a matter of days. Plan A includes a loft office overlooking the salon; Plan B has a second story apartment for the urban owner. Equipment, supplies, inventory and software are standard issue. Franchisees also have the option of purchasing hybrid ad-cars. Each Green Liberation Salon is a green, box-wrapped business which consumers deserve and entrepreneurs crave.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;Green investors, individuals, even small groups of women who’ve never owned a business before can buy their own salon and hire a competent manager. Chem-free supplies are undoubtedly safer to work with than the alternative. On-site childcare and flexible hours are HUGE benefits for women. As healthcare becomes universal instead of employer-based women will be able to change jobs, or work part-time. Internships, training, flexible hours and "cooperative" child care are super-competitive benefits for women, making each Green Liberation Salon a highly desirable place to work. I plan to recruit from high schools, low-income and retirement communities. (Green jobs aren't &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;only&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; in construction and renewable energy!) The franchisor &amp;amp; every salon create green jobs from entry-level to specialized. The more franchise units the more small businesses and green jobs.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;More than a franchise, Green Liberation is a grass roots network of green citizens patronizing, employing, working, and benefiting from a simple set of eco-friendly principles applied to business and lifestyles as a greener economy emerges from the ashes of the oil-based economy. Each franchise's front porch, side deck and Green Room (childcare/rental room) provide green sites to address local concerns and to hold classes after-hours. A portion of Green Liberation Salons’ sales will be donated to Cancer, Autism and Alzheimer’s orgs. Franchisee's receive the Green Liberation supply line in large reusable containers that they send back for replacement as needed. Empties of our eco-friendly products may be returned at local salons and replaced with refills.&amp;nbsp;Green Liberation Salons&amp;nbsp;would like to be disposable diaper drop-off sites, recycling stations, and donation sources.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;Every progressive town in the U.S. and Canada deserves its own Green Liberation Salon to serve its mothers and all health-conscious women. Green Goddess holds a baby in one arm as she reaches forward for the hand of another child. The larger-than-life-size statues stand atop the salons’ green roofs. Green Goddess is some&amp;nbsp;traffic-stopper! Inside, the atmosphere is relaxed enough for the casual woman, yet the standard operating procedures ensure desirable services and a quality-controlled experience from coast to coast. Women’s health and motherhood span the income classes and Green Liberation serves all these increasingly conscientious consumers. Women will patronize the salon pre-pregnancy through menopause for the consistent customer service, safe products, and positive experience. The millenial generation will surely grow up loyal to Green Liberation Salons.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
LOHAS is forecasted to mature into $3 trillion dollars, annually. The beauty salon and personal care services industries earn $29 and $48 billion dollars annually, just in the U.S. Retail sales from franchises account for over 1/3 of all U.S. retail sales.&amp;nbsp; Green Goddess Salons, LLC borrows proven methods for running profitable salons and follows in the footsteps of successful international franchisors. However, the traditional salon industry only contributes to environmental waste and pollution. Green Liberation exemplifies sustainable business practices by&amp;nbsp;building with&amp;nbsp;recycled steel SIPS, re-using ISBUs, renewing energy, collecting and conserving water. Green Liberation Salons' advantage over independent salons is their extreme fragmentation and wide range of quality. GLS' difference from existing salon franchises is their non-green business practices and 1-d treatment of "consumers". &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instead of cynically cultivating Consumers to devour the Earth like Baby Boomers, we should strive to grow generations of Unsumers. Instead of fleecing Customers like sheep,&amp;nbsp;Green Liberation tends its victory garden of Ustomers. Each Employ-We is offered opportunities to rise and to invest in&amp;nbsp;this&amp;nbsp;alternative, healthy economy. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Green Liberation's anti-corporate stance is guided by eco-standards and the acknowledgement of women's significant challenges. Societies should stop&amp;nbsp;taking advantage of women.&amp;nbsp;In fact, we should stop demanding that they take better care of themselves, and&amp;nbsp;start&amp;nbsp;taking better care of them.&amp;nbsp;Green Liberation practices product stewardship, participates in fair trade, and prospers w/out taking advantage of its customers or employees. From biodegradable gift cards designed with child-art, to a baby-holder in the salon, and separate childcare behind the one-way mirror&amp;nbsp;on the right, women will immediately appreciate the difference between Green Liberation Salons and the old paradigm.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1574792507803692683-425400860298248946?l=www.greenliberationsalon.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
