Some questions we'll consider...

Why do we humans ignore Nature in the way we organize things? Why have we insisted on doing things so "unnaturally"? Is it because we are still of the mindset that we must dominate Nature, as if this is really possible? These and other questions will be addressed in this dialogue for anyone interested in sustainability in business.
