Like many Angelenos amidst the unprecedented Los Angeles area wildfires, Green Econome Founder and CEO Marika Erdely had a few short moments to gather family and belongings to safety from the Palisades Fire that erupted Tuesday morning. Marika shared her story, photos, and Ring camera footage capturing the approaching blaze with journalists at CNN, BBC, and elsewhere.
For Marika and Green Econome, as important as the headline news, is the underlying story that Erdely made sure to mention during her interview with Laura Coates of CNN. Our planet is out of balance, and it requires immediate action. From everyone. We have very concrete actions that can be taken to lessen the severity of what we are all being impacted by. Starting with small, easy, low-cost changes that anyone can make, to more complex solutions. Green Econome is founded on this, and a passion to help move change forward so future generations can thrive. Our focus is on improving existing buildings, helping to build efficient, sustainable, and resilient new ones, and being an ally with policymakers AND responsible parties to drive action toward the very important goals that have been set in motion.
Watch, share, and contact us if you have ideas, or are ready to start taking action at your property.
All of us at Green Econome are sending our thoughts to those affected by the fires, and heartfelt thanks to all who are fighting on the front lines and providing aid. As a company serving many buildings throughout the county, we are deeply saddened by the loss, and further committed to bringing back a bright, beautiful, resilient patchwork of buildings and homes in Los Angeles.
