A Passion For Sustainability



Sustainability as It's Practiced in Portland
This is a great video that I use in my class on sustainability. It illustrates the implementation of the Natural Step principles by a dozen or so merchants and one local utility. Since there's a good website for the Natural Step process, this video provides a good opportunity to talk about whether or not sustainable principles in action can be achieved.

Here's an example we should follow across the nation.
Those interested in changing the way we consume so that our planet is protected and we practice good stewardship might want to take a look at what's going on in Portland. Its businesses, government and people are forging ahead with a new perspective that is both exciting, economically feasible and gives us hope that we can prevent further damage to the earth and enjoy life to the max.

Green Business Overview PDX
This video is quite dry for the title Passion for Sustainability. Kudos to all the entrepreneurs and activists interviewed, but I had to watch this in three segments as it was not particularly inspiring.
