And when it’s our relationship with the world we live in it hurts more than just us.
Everything we do affects our world. Smile, don’t smile. Praise, criticise. Vote, stay at home. Buy fair trade, buy the cheapest. Think profit, think it through.

Profile Information
- I was personally invited by:
- Karen M
- My Pledge for Change: In the Spirit of Harmony with Our Planet
- I want to change the world by helping people understand their options and the consequences of their actions.
I am vegetarian (livestock production is the single biggest contributor to climate change and environmental degradation.)
As well as founding the UK's only environment focused radio station; Passion for the Planet, I have recently given up my car. We are now a completely car-less company and household.
- About Me:
- Hi, I'm Chantal and I'm co-founder and owner of DAB digital radio station 'Passion for the Planet' - the UK's only radio station dedicated to a "green and healthy" lifestyle, with an eclectic mix of adult contemporary and World Music. Have a listen at www.passionfortheplanet.com.
I'm absolutely passionate about radio, about the environment and about taking responsibility for our health. And I believe anything is possible!
My dream was to own a radio station; not just another radio station with the typical mix of pop music and celebrity gossip. I wanted to create something new, something that had never been offered in the UK before - a radio station that would deal with health, personal development and environmental issues; that would be entertaining, informative and inspiring, balanced with great music from around the world. So I did - and it's called 'Passion for the Planet'.
'Passion for the Planet' began broadcasting on DAB (digital radio) on 10 September 2002. Passion reaches over 90,000 people per week. Passion offers a unique blend of music and information that can't be heard on any other radio station in the UK.
In 2004 Passion for the Planet received a Special Commendation for the Best Radio Feature at the British Environment and Media Awards. Passion has been voted one of the top 10 digital stations in the UK by The Telegraph, and received a green business award from The Green Guardian, and a special commendation in the Triodos Women in Ethical Business Awards.
I've been a passionate advocate for health and environmental issues for many years but frustrated by the lack of information available through mainstream media and the often negative approach taken to issues like the environment, alternative health and personal development.
The aim of 'Passion for the Planet' is to fill this void with inspiring solutions to issues that reflect the concerns of individuals, presented in an entertaining format of interviews, combined with an eclectic mix of music.
I'm also a Reiki Master and have trained with 'Psychology of Vision' founder, Chuck Spezzano and 'Mythogenic Self' creator, Joseph Riggio. I'm also featured in Nick William's book Powerful Beyond Measure, published by Bantam.
It's important that Passion's philosophy extends to the office environment, which follows the principles of Feng Shui in its layout and colour scheme. The studios are sound proofed with organic hemp from Scotland, there are recycling bins for waste, as well as plants and crystals to keep the air clean - the station really does walk the talk.
'Passion for the Planet' is available on DAB digital radio across London and the South of England and nationwide on the Internet at www.passionfortheplanet.com. It would be great if you can join us.
We have just launched PassionSELECT. You can listen "on demand" to our Passion for the Planet Podcasts. Listen to interviews with leading experts in the field of health, the Environment, and Personal Development. All available on our web site www.passionfortheplanet.com
So how may Passion for the Planet be able help you?
* We can help you reach over 90,000 ABC1 adults each week through a range of cost effective advertising packages.
* We can produce compelling, high quality podcasts to help you market your business and build your subscriber base.
* We can help you produce a range of professional audio products that both promote your services and provide you with a residual income
* And finally, I run regular workshops to show ethical business people how to get themselves on the TV, radio and in the Press. Details of my next workshop are at www.passionfortheplanet.com.
Tune in to Passion and say hello!

First there was Earth and then there was Man. And Man reaped everything he could from our Earth but failed to "give back". And then there came a time of reckoning. And Man began to "give back"... Everything started to Change..... The World is changing. People are changing. And business has changed... Every business you find in our ethical directory is a giving business....giving back to Our Planet by working in the Spirit of Harmony with Earth. ...Every member on Pledging for Change is here because they believe in Giving Back in the Spirit of Harmony with Our Planet
Do all the good you can, By all the means you can, In all the ways you can, In all the places you can, At all the times you can, To all the people you can, As long as ever you can. -- John Wesley, "Letters of John Wesley"
Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centres of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance. -- Robert F. Kennedy
