Borden Communications is proud to be a Founding Canadian B Corp because we believe that good people, doing good things should stick together to support each other. We hope that the B Corporation Community will be the ultimate catalyst for sustainable and ethical businesses to connect and collaborate with each other, bringing about constant positive change.

We believe that good people, doing good things need to stick together…and talk a lot.
We spoke with Alexandra Zissu (as we are often fortunate to do around here), eco-obsessed journalist, mom, speaker, and consultant. Alexandra has written for many publications including The New York Times, and Huffington Post, and has authored Planet Home, The Conscious Kitchen, The Complete Organic Pregnancy, and The Butcher’s Guide to Well-Raised Meat. Here are her thoughts on being green in the city, the army she’s creating, and her own eco sins.

This is not really a blog (because I never really do anything completely conventionally), but I certainly do have a lot to say and share (for those of you who know me, stop chuckling or rolling your eyes). I’m SO fortunate to be able to connect with people, products, and ideas that I find incredibly inspiring every day, and I hope to use this virtual space to give you an inside look into what’s going on in my (crazy) world…which, I share with you.
Along with my small but mighty team, I’ll be posting in 3 different “departments”:
Interviews with Mosquitos
Good people doing good things need to stick together (and talk a lot). The African proverb I live and work by is, “If you think you’re too small to make a difference, try sleeping in a room with a mosquito.” We work and speak with so many amazingly energetic people, who are making a big difference (let’s call them “our” mosquitos), and we look forward to introducing them, their work and their philosophies to you, hoping to build an even stronger community and support for each other.

Everything good (and bad) should be shared. Because who doesn’t love a good list? We’ll be sharing our many favourites (that are just too good to keep to ourselves), and many things that outrage us, (we have to share them in order to piss you off, because, that’s the best catalyst for change!).
Loud Mouthing
Saying what we think, and doing what we say. Whether something makes us super excited, super thankful, or super outraged, we don’t want to keep it in so we’re going to write it and share it here. Basically, this “department” is a fancy way of delivering you our not-so-often special announcements.
I encourage you to share with us as well. If something excites or outrages you, if you have a product or service that we should know about, or should you have any comments, complaints, criticisms or compliments please be in touch .
Welcome to my bubble,

Not everything or everyone fits into categories (especially me). Ironically, for someone who provides clarity to others for a living, what I do is not always clear to those that have not worked with me.
Over time, I aspire to fill this virtual space with things that will potentially interest you, my client, the most important person around, but for now you’ll find a “short list” of my self-titled positions and relationships as well as my brief reasons why you (or others you know) would want to work with me. I seem to be much better working for you on impossible deadlines rather than meeting my own.
I look forward to sharing my own works, more about how I work, and suggestions for how you can work, on an ongoing basis. Please be in touch should you have any comments, complaints or compliments at anytime.
