Greg Watson – Twelve Degrees of Freedom
Bioneers | Published: October 26, 2017 Ecological Design Video
Growing up in Cleveland, Watson would notice black ash from the smoldering river raining down on him as he waited for the bus. Industry and government’s failure to address the pollution crisis followed him into his adult life when he learned about Buckminster Fuller’s idea of using nature’s design strategies to leverage energy and create significant positive effects. In state government and the private sector, Watson’s leadership has since manifested in urban planning, wind energy development, and launching community gardens and farmers markets.
This speech was given at the 2008 Bioneers National Conference.
