Cradle to Cradle Author William McDonough Speaks About YOUR Green Future



Watch a twenty minute video presentation by William McDonough, architect, visionary, designer, and co-author of one of the central books that sparked the modern green movement, Cradle To Cradle.


The presentation, presented in part here, is not a recent one, but it is probably more poignant and contemporary today than it was on the day in 2005 when he delivered it. McDonough addresses our current economic, ecologic, and social situation in one of the most brilliant and succinct fashions that I have ever experienced. Architecture, design, ecology, energy, pollution, brilliance, idiocy, nature, our future, our shared vision--he covers it all.

The dynamic and funny presentation moves pretty fast, but if you listen carefully you will find reason for both outrage and profound hope. You may also find more than a little inspiration for your business or even an idea to transform an industry.
