How Internet Entrepreneurship Will Save The Planet
This is a guest post by Tim Smythe.
As of June 2009 there were over 1.6 billion people using the Internet with a world population of almost 6.8 billion. This means that only 25% of the world is using the Internet! WOW the world has just barely started to plug into the Internet! Use of the Internet is up 362% worldwide since 2000 alone. This is great news for any Internet entrepreneurs that want to explore opportunities in social media or web based business’. There are still billions of opportunities yet to be had on the Internet! Throughout modern history every great invention has taking 30 years or more to really hit its mark. The Internet is less than 27 years old so if you think of the Internet in terms of car we are still in the first model year Internet Protocol ver.4 or (IPv4). This version has been in use for the past 20 years. The Next Generation Internet(NGI) or IPv6 is still in its infancy stages but once in place will certainly change and revolutionize the way the Internet looks and operates. This major change to the Internet will equal opportunity, so if your not sure if you want to try an Internet based opportunity understand this the Internet has only just begun to effect human kind!
But what does all this mean in terms of the environment? Well if you look at it terms of our carbon foot print the Internet has saved millions of trees from being used as paper and has let millions of people work from home. In the future the Internet will be integrated with every thing we own from our homes and cars to our coffee makers making them more energy efficient.
The only negative right now is that the Internet takes computers to connect to it. Computers are filled with toxic chemicals,carcinogens, and heavy metals and millions of them are ending up in land fills in the U.S. and China. There are several ways to out there to recycle your old computer. Most manufactures have recycle programs that you can use or you can turn to things like E-bays Rethink program and the EPA’s Ecycling website for information on how to recycle your computer the right way. The good news is that a study done in 2005 found out that over 70% of all old computers were being recycled or being given to developing nations. That’s the second highest recycle percentage of any product second only to the car.
So lets all find new ways to make money on the Internet and recycle our old computers together we might just Save the Planet!

To commercialize in footings of quality rather than price, and in order to specialize consequently, you require to follow the canonical format of the 4 Ps marketing plan. That is, Price, Product, Place and Promotion manifestly you cognize the important properties of the merchandise, and the cost, but for place you should consider about the type of people who are willing to pay over 4x price of competing product whereas the cheap option may be sold where emphasis is on cost, your ware will be suited to places/distributors where the clients will be willing to pay for high-performance. Thank you for this article!
