The Largest Virtual Sustainability Gathering Ever!
World-class sustainability leaders in free interviews throughout the spring. It's the 2nd annual Spring of Sustainability!
More than 60 luminaries -- like Bill McKibben, Vandana Shiva, Dennis Kucinich, Frances Moore-Lappe, Randy Hayes, Joanna Macy, John Robbins, Michael Brune and John Perkins -- are appearing in 45-minute interviews on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and in panel dialogues on Thursdays, from April 2 - June 14. The entire program is free to register for, and free to listen to (live, and for 48 hours afterwards). Downloads and transcripts are also available for purchase.
Co-produced by the Sustainable World Coalition and The Shift Network, the Spring of Sustainability brings the biggest names in the environmental and environmental justice movements to the world to address:
- the most pressing global issues
- inspiring sources of hope, and
- what each of us can do to make a difference.
The goal of the three-month series is to both raise awareness and empower large-scale shifts towards sustainability. Partnering with us in this massive effort are organizations like Bioneers, Green America, The Pachamama Alliance, Wiser Earth, Amazon Watch, New Reality, the Endangered Species Coalition - and many more.
For more complete information on events, presenters, scheduling, co-sponsors and more for the recently-ended 2012 Spring of Sustainability, visit the Spring of Sustainability website.
