LOHAS Channel

Welcome to the LOHAS Channel!

LOHAS stands for "Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability" (please see "The Meaning of LOHAS" for a definition). Our goal is to provide visitors with a centralized resource for helping people to live a healthier life and to build a more sustainable and just world.

In the waning months of 2008, it is hard to be optimistic about the future. The war in Iraq and Afganistan continues its grim and costly course. The American economy stumbles on like a drunken cardiac patient that refuses to change his diet and lifestyle. After pleasant small talk, everyday conversations revert to trading stories about how friends and family are suffering through the worse times since the Great Depression.

Many people say that under these circumstances, how can anyone or any business change what they are doing without the risk of losing everything? But, blind adherence to failed lifestyles or economic policies is a sure recipe for doom. Any cardiac physician will tell an "at-risk" patient that unless they change, they will die sooner rather than later.

LOHASchannel offers ideas on how to live better and grow a green economy. Each of us, and collectively as a nation, needs to come up with workable solutions to specific problems.

We hope that our web site highlights some of the latest "best practices" so that we can learn from each other and build a healthier and more sustainable world for ourselves and future generations.
