Van Jones argumentiert gegen die Verwendung von Plastik aus der Perspektive sozialer Gerechtigkeit. Er zeigt, dass Plastik und seine negativen Externalitäten zuerst arme Menschen trifft, danach aber uns alle, unabhängig davon, wo wir leben und wieviel wir verdienen. Bei TEDxGPGP stellt er Ideen dazu vor, wie wir unseren zum Wegwerfprodukt gewordenen Planeten zurückgewinnen können.

Van Jones sees a clear link between soclal justice and green energy -- and works for both. Full bio »
