Green Celebrity Spotlight: Shine On Eco Friendy Author Emilio Estefan (Rhythm of Success Book Review)

Green Celebrity Spotlight!

Author Emilio Estefan’s new book on sustainability a success according to eco friendly readers —

[Jan. 5]

I just finished reading a great book by Emilio Estefan called the Rhythm of Success.

Emilio Estefan’s name may not sound familiar to you. However, I’ll bet that Gloria Estefan does sound very familiar. Emilio is her husband and for many years her manager. The two have a huge name in the music industry, however, their company, Estefan Enterprises, also has real estate holdings. This is why I chose to highlight Emilio. He makes a commitment to “get into the habit of recycling and using only what we need-and preserving the rest or giving it to someone who needs it…”

Estefan Enterprises makes a concerted effort to use sustainable practices in their buildings, in fact one of their 30 businesses is the Costa d’ Este in Vero Beach, Florida and it is LEED certified. LEED stands for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design.

Green isn’t limited to building though. It can be about any manufacturing process and even music. Borrowing from another musician, Will-I-Am, it’s a “little bit of old, and a bigger bit of New”.

The book Rhythm of Success was recommended to me by a friend who knows that I am ALL about the environment, energy conservation, improvement, investing, growth and learning.

I picked up the book and immediately fell in love with it! I hope you pick it up too.

It’s too late for Christmas but perhaps it can be a Three Kings day gift.
