>
>What We Learned In The Rainforest:
>Tools Inspired by Nature for Corporate Accountability and Sustainability
>
>BACKGROUND:
>
>Three years ago, in a speech entitled "What I Learned in the Rainforest,"
>Tachi Kiuchi set forth a bold vision: Instead of extracting resources from
>nature, businesses could harvest nature's ideas. By running our businesses
>like the rainforest - innovative, adaptive, resilient, and sustainable - we
>can emulate nature's capacity to create value without consuming its base. We
>can begin to profit sustainably, and create affluence without effluence.
>
>But how?
>
>To answer that question, the Future 500 is proud to invite you to "What We
>Learned in the Rainforest," the Future 500 Summit 2001, this November 13-15
>near San Francisco.
>
>Like last year's Industrial Ecology 2000, our 2001 summit will draw together
>a rich combination of forward-thinking executives, practical visionaries, and
>business change agents. But unlike IE 2000, What We Learned in the
>Rainforest is a WORKING conference. Instead of dozens of keynotes and
>breakout sessions, we will be working side-by-side in intimate roundtable
>sessions. And instead of last year's 400 participants, less than 100
>registrants will be permitted - 50 of them hand-selected, to assure that we
>have the catalytic mix of participants we need.
>
>PROGRAM THEMES:
>
> * Lessons from the Rainforest: The Book, the Principles, the Tools
>
> * Applying the Lessons I: New Tools for Corporate Accountability. Learn
>about, propose, discuss and debate tools in different fields and functions of
>corporate accountability:
> -Planning Tools
> -Policy Tools
> -Implementation Tools
> -Tracking Tools
> -Communication Tools
> -Applying the Lessons II: Product Stewardship and Extended Product
>Responsibility
