Peacock, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Green Globe International, Inc. "His role in creating and leading FiscallyGreenSM demonstrates Jeff's vision in the area of sustainability, and we expect that his role as a member of our management team will expand over the 90 day timeframe into a more long term position."  

"In a fast changing world, I see great challenge and great opportunity in the environmental services sector," commented Mr. Garrison, "I have come to understand and respect what Green Globe has accomplished over its rich history and especially how it has positioned itself with Village Green Global to be the leader in low cost environmental reporting and certification. I am excited by the possibilities and look forward to playing a supportive and influential role in the company's future."
