Through her many books (including Natural Capitalism, and most recently Climate Capitalism), numerous successful start-ups, years of business consulting, and tireless public speaking, Hunter has been a driving force behind changing global dialog, and concrete business practice, in the direction of global sustainability.  Bard MBA and CEP Director Eban Goodstein will engage Hunter in an evening of conversation on sustainable business.
