OneWorld: web 2.0 to promote sustainability
I was delighted to meet Peter Amstrong and his lovely wife Anuradha on the Social Innovation Congress. They are two amazing examples of social entrepreneurs. Peter and Anuradha are the founders of OneWorld, a cutting edge in harnessing media technology to benefit people who need it most.
Peter was a vibrant speaker on the panel I chaired. He explained how OneWorld leverages media innovatively for a fair and sustainable world. If you want to read what people around the world say about their climate-related experiences, http://www.oneclimate.net/experiences is the right place.
The way OneClimate uses technology to promote sustainability is truly fascinating.
“I predict that in ten years, we will use virtual worlds instead of traveling”, said Peter on our debate.
During the Congress, I had the change to lunch with Peter and Anuradha. A few days later, I got a very nice email from Peter:
“Anuradha and I were really delighted to meet you this week. It was a highlight of the Lisbon conference for us. I've put a short report of our conversation up on the front page of OneClimate. It's linked from http://www.oneclimate.net. For us it pulled together so many important themes that we'd love to develop with you more going forward. We look forward to meeting in London as soon as we are back and continuing the conversation.” Me too.
