Turning the Ship

Joel Makower of GreenBiz.com is starting up what looks like an interesting online discussion forum called Turning the Ship (running from now through March 13). From his blog entry:

GreenBiz.com is partnering with Harvard University Graduate School of Design and The Clark Group to produce Turning the Ship, a unique online conversation exploring options for encouraging environmentally sustainable business practices among U.S. businesses.

Each week between now and March 13, the dialogue will feature essays by some of the world’s leading thinkers on the environmental transformation of the U.S. economy, from climate change and U.S. business practices, to product branding and certification, to the latest developments in the fields of green chemistry and industrial ecology.

You are encouraged to add your comments, observations, and insights to each of these essays. The result, we hope, will be a robust conversation about the future of business. Please join in!

Link to the essays and conversations: http://www.greenbiz.com/ship/. More info is available at Turning the Ship. I am looking forward to seeing the essays and dialogue that emerge. This has the potential to be a pretty interesting conversation.
