Young entrepreneurs and innovators make decisions every day that have long-term consequences. Individuals need good information to do a cost/benefit analysis and make informed decisions on things like fuel sources, product packaging and delivery, and workplace furnishings. This podcast will provide inspiration from entrepreneurs who have developed their businesses around environmentalism as well as address the trends and choices that young leaders want to hear more about. Each podcast episode will feature a particular call to action- a step that an individual can take or can lead their office/community in taking.

Listeners will be inspired by stories of others, get practical information and "myth busting; about the environmental impact of everyday decisions, and will see the United States as a source of partnership and leadership in protecting the planet.(Please refer to the full announcement under related documents tab)
