Graduate Environmental Program

Environmental entrepreneur Paul Hawken’s address to the University of Portland’s graduation ceremony has struck a chord with the world’s media and bloggers this month. Here it is in full.

“No one knows how many groups and organizations are working on the most salient issues of our day: climate change, poverty, deforestation, peace, water, hunger, conservation, human rights, and more. This is the largest movement the world has ever seen. Rather than control, it seeks connection. Rather than dominance, it strives to disperse concentrations of power.“……“Nature beckons you to be on her side. You couldn’t ask for a better boss.”

The Earth is hiring.
