Derek Hodges, founder and President of Essential Depot, Inc. shared your concerns and motivations.  Motivated sufficiently to implement his vision, in October 2014, Derek started the Greener Life Club.  The vision was to merge sustainable and profitable business practices to advance a better world for all.  However, the cooperation and participation by larger corporations was a problem, but not insurmountable.  In 2016 Derek introduced the Greener Life Diamond (GLD) which codified 4 values:  Carbon Footprint, Animal Friendly, Bio Friendly, and Fair Trade.  Read more about that vision in the GLD White Paper.  Since that time, more than 17,000 people — customers and suppliers — have joined the Greener Life Club.  But more was needed:  transparency.  It is not enough to say that something is valued, it must be demonstrated.  But how can you demonstrate that value to the world?  The answer: Greener Life Certification.

Greener Life Club members make and sell thousands of handcrafted products monthly.  Greener Life Club members differentiate those products not only with branding and quality but also with the Greener Life Diamond turning individual buying decisions into power towards a better world.

Greener Life Club Lifetime Members are invited join to the Greener Life Certification Program.
