First Tuesday 4

Across to the British Library with Charmian and Sam, after sending The Phoenix Economy to the printers, for a First Tuesday debate at the British Library.  I was paired with James Cameron of Climate Change Capital, in a greentech session moderated by Rebecca Burn-Callander of Real Business. Lively session and conversations across at the Novotel afterwards.  Photos by Sam, who says since I post photos of others, what is sauce for goose is sauce for the gander, or somesuch.

Introduction

I began this blog with an entry reporting on a visit to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution on Cape Cod, on 30 September 2003. The blog element of the website has gone through several iterations since, with much of the older material still available.

Like so many things in my life, blog entries blur the boundaries between the personal and the professional. As explained on this site’s Home Page, the website and the blog are part platform for ongoing projects, part autobiography, and part accountability mechanism.

In addition, my blogs have appeared on many sites such as: Chinadialogue, CSRWire, Fast Company, GreenBiz, Guardian Sustainable Business, and the Harvard Business Review.
