A Note from the Editor
By Jonathan Bardelline
Dear readers:
We just brought the curtain down on our second annual Greener by Design conference, and it was a huge success -- nearly 200 designers, product managers, sustainability professionals and other industry experts came together for two days of in-depth discussion of the issues around the theme of "Greener products for leaner times."
I was there with my colleagues, managing editor Matthew Wheeland and contributing blogger Amie Vaccaro, covering all the keynotes, panels and breakout sessions.
Among the stories we published on Tuesday and Wednesday are Bill McDonough's keynote on Nature's rights, Plastiki, the ocean exploration vessel built by David de Rothschild, a look at eight small but innovative companies, Marc Gunther's look at how Method is evolving laundry detergent, and Tom Szaky's goal to recycle all waste, everywhere.
We'll have video posted in the coming days, but in the meantime, you can check out all of these stories, as well as podcasts, Twitter posts, and tools and resources from our esteemed speakers, at GreenerByDesign.com.
