    justmeansJustmeans (Android)
    Interested in what companies are doing to advance social and environmental sustainability? Justmeans does the trick! Xompare, rank publicly traded companies and see how they stack up.    		FooducateFooducate
    Too much information! Are you supposed to be avoiding transfats or saturated fat? Don’t panic. Fooducate saves the day. Scan barcode or search for products to see its nutrition grade. I give this an A+ .
    greenwarsGreen Wars
    Had to put one entertaining app in the mix, it’s Green Wars. Reminiscent of the old game, Drug Wars, in this version your inventory is packed with things like reusable shopping bags and hybrid cars. Not as fun as the original, think of it as Zynga for hippies – Hippyville!.    		SplashIDSplashID
    Password keeper to maintain your usernames, passwords, and other vital information. It has 256-bit Blowfish encryption, backup and wireless sync to your PC, and a password generator to create hackerresistantpasswords. Can you say 007?!
    iRecycleiRecycle
    Provides you with access to 800k recycling and disposal resources for over 240 items. That’s a whole lot of worthfrom a free app. Great way to educate.    		RSARSA
    Hate carrying around that silly VPN password keychain? Me too. RSA has built an Authentication Manager for VPNs, wireless LANs and web applications. Network security just gotbetter and lighter.
    green genieGreen Genie
    If you need ideas for how to be more green, rub the magic lamp! A fun way to innovate and learn new tricks to reduce and reuse. Submit your own project idea, just makes the database grow. Greatsocial app.    		EyeSpyFXEyeSpyFX
    You can check surveillance cameras from Axis, Sony, D-Link, Linksys, Mobotix, and Vivotek. So many tweaks and settings. Beyond cool to keep tabs on things this way.
    LookoutLookout (for Android)
    These guys have a good grasp of their Android user base by creating a simple, effective and stimulating intuitive app that you’ll hardly notice running in the background. Totally feel safe.    		KnottycaseKnottycase
    This isn’t an app, but what phone isn’t complete without a Knottycase Sustainable Wood case for your iPhone. Each case carries with it the legend of the tree it came from.
    Tina Olivero

    30 years ago, Tina Olivero looked into the future and saw an opportunity to make a difference for her province and people. That difference came in the form of the oil and gas sector. Six years before there was even a drop of oil brought to the shores of Newfoundland, she founded The Oil and Gas Magazine (THE OGM) from a back room in her home on Signal Hill Road, in St. John’s, Newfoundland. A single mother, no financing, no previous journalism or oil and gas experience, she forged ahead, with a creative vision and one heck of a heaping dose of sheer determination. With her pioneering spirit, Ms. Olivero developed a magazine that would educate, inspire, motivate and entertain oil and gas readers around the world — She prides herself in marketing and promoting our province and resources in unprecedented ways. The OGM is a magazine that focuses on our projects, our people, our opportunities and ultimately becomes the bridge to new energy outcomes and a sustainable new energy world. Now diversifying into the communications realms, a natural progression from the Magazine, The OGM now offers an entirely new division - Oil & Gas Media. Today, The Oil and Gas Magazine is a global phenomenon that operates not only in Newfoundland, but also in Calgary and is read by oil and gas enthusiasts in Norway, Aberdeen, across the US and as far reaching as Abu Dhabi, in the Middle East. Believing that Energy is everyone’s business, Ms. Olivero has combined energy + culture to embrace the worlds commitment to a balance of work and home life as well as fostering a foundation for health and well being. In this era of growth and development business and lifestyle are an eloquent mix, there is no beginning or end. Partnering with over 90 oil and gas exhibitions and conferences around the world, Ms. Olivero's role as a Global Visionary is to embrace communication in a way that fosters oil and gas business and industry growth in new and creative ways.
