Sustainability: EarthDay for All and the Challenge of Inequity: Ron Sims |
Deputy Secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development, Ron Sims inspires us to be innovative and committed to
change in a talk he gave in Portland, Oregon on April 22, 2010,
EarthDay. He talked about what Sustainability means to him; the
importance of changing who we are; and how the
grand experiment we call the United States of America is one of
opportunity, fairness and justice. More information on his
accomplishment can be found on his Website. This public talk by the Deputy Secretary is part of the The 8th Annual Regional Livability Summit sponsored by the Coalition for a Livable Future. EarthSayer Ron Sims |
