GM Gear-ing Up for an Electric IPO

Now I’m no Gordon Gekko believe me, but I had been waiting years for Tesla’s IPO and today I find out I missed it! By almost two full months! Tesla marked the first electic vehicle car to be openly traded on Wall Street and it seems that another company is getting ready to be the second.

GM is rumoured to be filing its prospectus with financial regulators and gear-ing up for a fall IPO (right before the Chevy Volt goes on sale). So will I be buying stock in this IPO, probably not being that its GM. However, it will be interesting to see what this will do for the company and it’s image. Click here to learn more and I’m sure there’s more news to come on this growing story.

Jack Johnson, Nuff Said.

So here I am talking about the same guy (and kinda the same subject) again, but everything this guy does is for creating positive change for the people of this world and the environment we belong too. Beween this, this and this, I really didn’t know what else he could do. And then…..

Johnson’s charity the Johnson Ohana Charitable Foundation has pledged up to $70,000—$30,000 from direct donations and $40,000 in matching grants—to the All At Once non-profit partners working on Gulf relief efforts. And he goes one stpe further again. Just like his 2008 tour, Jack Johnson will donate 100% of his profits from 2010’s To The Sea Tour to charity.

I swear this is the last time I’m going to talk about this guy…….mabey.

Keep it Green,
