Sustainability: Thinking About Your Children by John Fullerton

Sustainability: John Fullerton of the Capital Institute and a former JPMorgan Managing Director talks with Ruth Ann Barrett of EarthSayers.tv about how thinking about your children and the world we live in tends to focus the mind. He has begun writing a book for his children about the context of how we came to this sustainability crisis. He asks: "Can you imagine being eighteen years old today and trying to make sense of this world?"

The mission of the Capital Institute is to stimulate the interaction and action of leaders, scholars, and society by raising awareness of the need to harness the power of capital and markets to advance a just, resilient, and sustainable economic system that will improve lives and preserve the planet.

Van Jones on Leadership

Green Economy pioneer Van Jones addresses the 2009 Bentley University/TIME magazine Leadership Forum. Jones, founder of Green For All and served as President Obama's Special Advisor for Green Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation at the White House Council on Environmental Quality. This is Part 1 of a 27-minute address where he addresses the three fallacies that tore the floor out from under the American people: rely on consumtion, rather than production; credit rather than smart savings and thrift; and ecological destruction rather than restoration.

Since resigning from his White House post, Mr. Jones has been vilified in the press as a communist, fascist and racist. We recommend listening to what he talks about, rather than the talk about him.
