Ecozome Journal is the creation of Rhizome Design and Rhizome Images owners Jen and Bob Pennington. As a means to document various aspects of sustainability, industry and the environment, the op-ed journal provides an opportunity to showcase great photography and a wide assortment of stories by various writers. The duo’s commitment to working with others in the world of sustainability led them to become members of the Network for Business Innovation and Sustainability.

NBIS is a non-profit organization providing businesses and professionals who are serious about profitable sustainability with the connections, skills, tools, programs, and resources that are vital for success in the green economy. With a diverse membership that spans industries and supports and highlights innovative companies and best practices, NBIS members are passionate, dedicated people with much talent to be shared. Members include academic institutions, government agencies and the collaborative resources of individuals and businesses charting the path to sustainability.

As members of NBIS, it seemed a natural fit to widen the horizons of the Ecozome Journal by featuring writers on social responsibility, sustainability and a new economy. With so many perspectives we refer to it simply as, “Art. Word. Life. Work.”
