{UPDATE 7/15: Due to some recent concerns on a few of these videos, unfortunately every one except #2 and #32 will be temporarily removed. We live in the social media age and for a topic this important, I hope all these videos can be made publicly available for the educational community. Please leave a comment if you’d like to know when they’re available again. Merci mes belle Amis…}
A 10-Minute Highlight video of some sessions I filmed at a great conference I attended in early June: Sustainable Brands 08. All of these videos cover topics in marketing communications, product development, operations, human resources, and management. The camera may not be always perfect, but I tried my best to get the best audio and sharpest resolution. Rollover a link for a quick abstract. On each individual page, there is descriptive information below the video about the speaker(s), the presentation’s summary and analysis, and additionally related articles and resources for further learning.
If someone you know may benefit from the incredible educational value of these sessions, please send them a link to this page or one of the videos below.

{UPDATE: Thanks to the Universities that have taken interest in these video case studies. I hope they serve essential value to educators and students interested in responsible & ethical approaches to sustainability}

Mario,
Your sustainability effort is one of the best I have seen in the blogosphere, on any subject. Congratulations and keep up your great work!
This is great stuff, Mario. Gavin Heaton suggested I stop by and check this out. We were discussing my recent post about the Vehicle Eco-Calculator, which I’d love for you to check out too.
Keep it up!
Mario - thanks for stringing all of these together.
It gives more credence to the excellent conference that Sustainable Life Media put on not to mention giving me a reference point for future blog posts.
I couldn’t attend this year due to too many choices, but I can see now how I must make it into my #1 priority for 2009.
Thank you for sharing the information, Mario. It is my hope that many organizations that are not currently doing so will start to move from sustainability as a special committee to sustainability as the way we work.
You are very kind to mention Conversation Agent among your sources of inspiration. I am inspired by your work.
