File No. 0-53601
Dear Mr. Spirgel:
The following sets forth
the comments made in your letter dated March 21, 2012, and the Company’s response to each of the comments in the order set
forth in that letter. The Company will file an amended Form 8-K via EDGAR today.
Forward-Looking Statements, page 13
1.
We note your response to comment 9 in our letter dated February 23, 2012, and we reissue that comment. Because you are an issuer of penny-stock, the safe harbor in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act does not apply to you. Please revise to delete all mention of Section 21E.
The reference to Section 21E has been deleted.
Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial
Owners and Management, page 17
2.
We note your response to comment 11 in our letter dated February 23, 2012. It is not clear where the changes to the disclosure were made in response to this comment. Furthermore, it appears from your response and from footnote 1 to the beneficial ownership table that Mr. Les Anderton should be listed as the beneficial owner of the shares pertaining to Aureus Investments. Please revise the table accordingly or clarify in your response to us why this change is not appropriate under the beneficial ownership rules.

Dear Mr. Spirgel:
The
following sets forth the comments made in your letter dated February 23, 2012, and the Company’s response to each of
the comments in the order set forth in that letter. The Company will file an amended Form 8-K via EDGAR today
(“Form 8-K/A”).

Please amend your Form 8-K to include the audited financial statements of Trunity Inc. for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. See Rule 8-08 of Regulation S-X.
Per our discussions with the Commission’s Accounting Staff, the Company will file an amended Form 8-K to include the audited financial statements of Trunity Inc. for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011; however, this amendment will not be filed until the audited financial statements are completed, which we believe will be near the end of this month. The Form 8-K/A filed today will include all of the other revised disclosure requested by the Commission.
