John Fullerton, founder of the Capital Institute, transitioned from Wall Street to become a sustainability advocate. Influenced by E.F. Schumacher's "Small is Beautiful," he collaborated with Allan Savory, founder of Holistic Management, to restore grasslands and return carbon to the soil. This work was highlighted in an October 2010 interview.

The Capital Institute seeks to harness capital for a just, resilient, and sustainable economic system. The Savory Institute restores global grasslands through Holistic Management. The Schumacher Society, founded in 1980, promotes strong local economies linking people, land, and community.

John Fullerton of the Capital Institute transitioned from Wall Street to sustainability advocacy. Influenced by Herman Daly's book, For the Common Good, he highlights the unsustainable practice of externalizing social and environmental costs and risks, citing the BP oil spill as a prime example.

Fullerton discussed these critical issues in an October 7, 2010 interview with Ruth Ann Barrett of EarthSayers.tv.

Despite California's global warming legislation, greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise, potentially leading to a four-degree annual temperature increase. This highlights an urgent environmental challenge.

Randy Hayes, founder of the Rainforest Action Network and described by the Wall Street Journal as “an environmental pit bull,” is addressing this. From Washington D.C., he leads Foundation Earth, a new organization dedicated to rethinking human systems to align with the planet’s life support capabilities.

Fracking for oil and natural gas is transforming America's energy economy. The resulting low-priced natural gas has undercut nuclear, coal, and renewable power. This boom is spreading globally, with the U.S. poised to become the world's largest petroleum producer, potentially undermining OPEC and altering geopolitical power.

Russell Gold's book, *The Boom: How Fracking Ignited the American Energy Revolution and Changed the World*, details how Texas and Oklahoma innovators perfected hydraulic fracturing. In this video, Gold, a Wall Street Journal reporter, provides a brief history of fracking's origins and its industry evolution. Published in 2015, his book is available for order.

Session 2 of The Boulder Forum on Economy, Climate and Community explored how public policy perpetuates fossil fuel dependency, a less-considered aspect of climate change. The forum, hosted by the City of Boulder with Bioneers as a partner, features global discussions on the economy's role in climate.

Speakers included Lolita Jackson, former NYC lead climate strategist who shaped the city's energy transition, and Robert Hockett, a Cornell Law professor who advised Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on the Green New Deal and authored "Financing the Green New Deal." Colorado State Senator Steve Fenberg, a champion of climate legislation, also participated as a local panelist.

John Fullerton, founder of Capital Institute, proposes "Capitalism 2.0," a regenerative economy modeled on natural laws to foster equality. He argues the modern economy is an unsustainable hierarchy, unlike healthy living systems. Fullerton warns that without this shift, increasing inequality could lead to civil strife.

As an architect of Regenerative Capitalism, Fullerton advocates for financial incentives to create a self-sustaining system. He points to nature's sustainable hierarchies—like a lion's balanced behavior or the branching patterns of trees and rivers—as blueprints for a more just and resilient economic future.
