The Sustainability Advocate by Joseph Roberts

The story of how a young man becomes a sustainability advocate. We have to realize there is only one earth, one shot to get things right. Part of the One in 8 Million is an oral history project in which a different individual among New York City's 8 million residents is profiled each week of 2009.
