A big challenge takes a bigger solution


I had a very encouraging conversation with Scott Hamlin of looptworks this afternoon. Looptworks is a very cool company out of Portland that is making very high quality clothes out of excess fabric, or industrial waste. Take the time to snoop around their website and see what they do, and how they are tackling the challenges of consumption and waste. For me it was an affirmation of the breadth of the challenge, but also the depth of the possibilities to end injustice and see a better future. The solution is challenging and it will come with a great variety of passions harmonized together into a great effort. We are hoping to help coalesce that energy here. Please spread the word, we need to combine our energies! Check out their Secret Agent Program under about and jobs. It's a cool idea and a great opportunity to engage the solution.
