Info Technology and Sustainable Development

from Inside Social Innovation Hosted by Featuring Michael Jones

Twenty years have passed since the 1992 Earth Summit, the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development that made sustainable development a priority for the UN. In this university podcast, Michael Jones, Google's chief technology advocate, discusses how connection technologies are now being used to support sustainable development. "Information is not a mirror to reflect the world but a hammer with which to shape it," he says, urging his audience to think big. Jones spoke at the USRio+2.0 Conference, hosted by the Stanford Graduate School of Business. https://ssir.org/podcasts/entry/info_technology_and_sustainable_development
