This is nothing fancy or complicated  ...just a simple little experiment of mine

My wish? ...to become a better person along the way

The Story of Solutions

The Story of Solutions, released in October 2013, explores how we can move our economy in a more sustainable and just direction, starting with orienting ourselves toward a new goal.
