SeanChron - Live Chat with Bill Foster

2.17.11 - Today I joined in on a Science Now live chat with Bill Foster, a physicist, businessman, and the former Democratic representative to the U.S. House of Representative for Illinois's 14th congressional district, serving from 2008 until 2011. Foster was chatting on the topic of electing scientists to public office, something near and dear to us here at Future-ish. Foster has some big ideas to get scientists more engaged in politics but he's also very realistic about the challenges that exist for scientists and the general public in doing so. You can read through the archived chat at the link above.

SeanChron - Questions to Korten and Long on KUOW's Weekday

Future-ish Founder Sean Schmidt recently posed questions to economist and author, David Korten, and Michelle Long, Executive Director of BALLE and co-founder of Bellingham's Sustainable Connections, on KUOW's Weedkay with Steve Scher. Sean, who has been a guest on KUOW in the past on the topic of sustainable design (find it here), asked Korten and Long how they thought local living economies could make it mainstream, as well as what they thought the future might be like if the trend in localized economies continues. Scher always puts on a great show and Korten and Long were both eloquent and super informed on the topic so it was a fantastic discussion. You can find the podcast here. You'll find Sean's short questions near the end of the show.
