State of the Planet 08

March 27th, 2008 at 11:33 am

State of the Planet 08, a conference hosted by The Economist and the Earth Institute at Columbia University, is happening right now! Topics discussed include eradicating poverty, addressing conflict, and sustainability and climate change. You can watch it online at www.stateoftheplanet.org.

Speakers include former UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan, Jeffrey Sachs and many others. I’m listening to a panel right now on Eradicating Poverty as the Poor Population Expands.

Check it out!
