TEDxWWF - Mike Barry: A Manifesto for a Sustainable Business Revolution

Mike Barry is Head of Sustainable Business at Marks & Spencer. Mike talks about how we are living beyond our environmental and social means in the developed world and, on current trajectories, in the not too distant future a growing middle class in the developing world will too. There is a growing recognition amongst businesses of the risks this poses to the long term stability and vitality of the global economy, but few businesses know how to make their business model significantly more sustainable. Mike will propose the practical steps that can be taken to drive the sustainable business journey forward.
About TEDx: In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
