Community – The Many Shades of Green

#1350: Rick Ulfik, We, The World

The Many Shades of Green — Wed, 15 Jan 2014 19:00:56 +0000

Rick Ulfik, founder of We, The World, and friend of the show, gives us insight into all the great work We.net is doing to promote peace and sustainability throughout the world. There are numerous programs that promote peace, sustainability and humanity, as the world needs to move away from the me, me, me mentality, to the WE mentality. Sustainable Earth 2020, 11 Days of Global Unity, 11 Ways to Change the World are just some of the initiatives that promote a better society. Jane Goodall, Nobel Prize Laureate Rev Desmond Tutu, Deepak Chopra and many others, are on the Board of We, The World, and they know that compassion and working together leads to environmental stewardship, sustainability, and transformation of communities. Go to www.We.net and/or www.wetheworld.org to get involved.
