In the last few months, I've read a number of inspiring stories in the news. Here is a quick recap (with links) of what I've learned.
1. The Economist covers a new business model for R&D designed to spur green technology -- in this case, the paper industry. Businesses from one industry pool resources to develop a cleaner technology, then each company races to put the developed technology into production.
2. The Hollywood Reporter states a Captain Planet movie is in the works. Need I say more?
3. Taiwan builds an enviro-friendly stadium that looks like a dragon, as shown in the blog GreenBuzz.
4. Philipinne delegate to the climate talks goes on hunger strike after typhoon destroys his homeland, as covered in the BBC News.
5. Elephant whisperer. Yeah, that's right. This 14-year old girl saves towns in India from lost and rampaging elephants. Reported by the BBC News.
