  • Learned a lot, but…

    There are a lot of takeaways to this podcast, but also the irking feeling of these big companies on some episodes making false promises. We are now in 2023, but those promises and sustainability plans are hardly seen.

    I hope that this podcast will release new episode/s.

  • Lets change capitalism to communityism with business leading the way.

    At the age of 58, I set up a small computer business that was trying to let people know how great the internet could be for them. This was in 2000. Listening to this talk made me remember the other reason I started, the realisation that reuse and recycling was the future, if we were to survive as a species

    Please keep sponsoring speakers with a viewpoint that will help humanity survive.
