It's Sustainability Time
It’s Sustainability Time explores sustainability as the engine for long-term human progress and the guiding influence for personal growth. Sustainability is both practical and profound — part everyday effort, part vision for what humanity can become. Together, we explore how developing a complete understanding of the true value of environmental, human, and societal resources, among others, creates an awareness that will lead us to a more stable and meaningful world. Uncovering the many dimensions of value, is the start of the path towards a truly sustainable world. A deeper, more philosophical understanding is beginning to emerge.
It’s Sustainability Time will include conversations with special guests, sharing real stories of resilience, purpose, and transformation.
Your host, Todd Francis Banks, is a certified peer mental health support counselor with a background in finance, visual arts, and environmental sciences.
