Van Jones
Van Jones lays out a case against plastic pollution from the perspective of social justice. Because plastic trash, he shows us, hits poor people and poor countries "first and worst," with consequences we all share no matter where we live and what we earn. In this powerful talk, he offers a few powerful ideas to help us reclaim our throwaway planet. Filmed at TEDxGreatPacificGarbagePatch [TEDxGP2], produced by the Plastic Pollution Coalition in 2010, at the Annenburg Community Beach House in Santa Monica, California.

Good talk.
Yes, it's about our connection with each other. The mind will honor, respect, and treat well those that it feels connected with. We prove this every day in our groups, we need to make a larger group... the larger group, one humanity.
We have allowed ourselves to be divided and conquered and to be used against each other with divisiveness and fear.

Green Economy pioneer Van Jones addresses the 2009 Bentley University/TIME magazine Leadership Forum. Jones, founder of Green For All and served as President Obama's Special Advisor for Green Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation at the White House Council on Environmental Quality. This is Part 1 of a 27-minute address where he addresses the three fallacies that tore the floor out from under the American people: rely on consumtion, rather than production; credit rather than smart savings and thrift; and ecological destruction rather than restoration.
Since resigning from his White House post, Mr. Jones has been vilified in the press as a communist, fascist and racist. We recommend listening to what he talks about, rather than the talk about him.
