About Me

I'm Vice President of Content for Greenopolis.com. I've Coauthored two books on sustainability: Learning for Sustainability (Society for Organizational Learning, 2006) and The Necessary Revolution: How Individuals and Businesses are Working Together to Create a Sustainable World. (Doubleday,2008) I've worked in the field of sustainability and learning for 15 years and along with colleagues Sara Schley and Peter Senge, established the Society for Organizational Learning (SoL) Sustainability Consortium (www.solsustainability.org), an active group of industry leaders in learning and sustainability. This consortium includes members from Harley-Davidson, Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Nike, 7th Generation, Waste Management, Plug Power and more. Together in Greenopolis, we can help each learn and act to shift the whole society to a sustainable path, where the environment, society, and the economy can all prosper.
