Making A Difference in 2019

Since its inception almost 3 years ago, WebStamp’s goal of stimulating the local economy by getting Calgarians and businesses connecting with their communities continues in 2019. There are many ways to achieve this goal with promoting local commerce being a major contributor.  That is why WebStamp has been offering FREE Business Listings in the WebStamp Local Calgary Business Directory allowing Calgarians to search for local businesses. We have also set up a Local Online Marketplace allowing Calgarians to shop on their smart devices from local merchants. WebStamp will continue its M.A.D. Move to promote local shopping Making A Difference in the coming year.

Along with promoting local commerce, WebStamp will continue its cause towards establishing a Circular Economy for a sustainable lifestyle for everyone to enjoy. Much of today’s social structure, based on 20th Century values, is destroying the environment and the economy along with depleting our natural resources. Things may prosper for a while, but if they are not sustainable for the long haul it will eventually crumble. Society needs to change its perspective in the 21st Century to survive and prosper and that is why WebStamp is providing information on ways to create and incorporate sustainable Circular Businesses Models.

For a Circular Economy to succeed there needs to be the reclaiming of materials including waste materials from manufacturing. WebStamp has published articles dealing with recycling and the need for improved recycling methods required for a sustainable economy, and we will continue to do so. Reusing materials can be more cost-effective than harvesting new raw resources, not to mention depleting limited materials. The recycle element of the 5Rs For Sustainable Living can help the local economy in many ways. It would create employment, promote local commerce, and boost the local economy.

Sustainable living is important for the well-being of society. With so many not able to afford housing there is a need to create affordable housing. The average dwelling is out of reach for many which tiny houses could fill the need. WebStamp wants to Make A Difference by changing city bylaws that are hindering the development of tiny house communities inside city limits. Watch for more tiny-house, actually smaller house, articles for 2019 in WebStamp.

There are so many ways one can Join The M.A.D. Movement and Make A Difference to improve and enhance society the way we live and survive. What are you interested in seeing changing? Then DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT! Whatever you do that Makes A Difference will not only benefit the chosen cause or those that you are helping but also yourself, the community, the economy, and society. Keep reading WebStamp to get ideas for your M.A.D. Move in the coming year.
