Changing the World (Right Now)

September 24, 2010 By desa-vanlaarhoven

If you had a magic wand, and you could wave it and create a world full of light, love, justice and peace, when do you think you would choose to use it? Would you get around to it as soon as you were done with your education? Would you do it once you found the right job? Would you think about doing it “someday”? Of course not.

If you had the power to make a difference in the world, you would do it now. Right now.

On the 22nd-24th of October, more than 2,000 people who are committed to a creating a better world now will converge on New Bedford, Massachusetts. You can join them, and if you act now, you’ll save up to $75 on your registration.

Going to the Connecting for Change conference this year will put you on the front lines of building a clean energy economy with Van Jones, becoming responsible for our role in the consumption economy with Annie Leonard, and discovering what will make a real difference in security and prosperity in the developing world with Greg Mortenson.  

Would you like to eliminate poverty? Create a thriving clean energy economy? Create a sustainable global supply chain? We need you. Each and every participant brings with them a special contribution to the event, and it really won’t be the same without you. Your passion, your ideas, and your very presence are critical.

To be a part of all of this and more, you need only act now, and register for the conference. The prices go up on Saturday, so take a couple minutes and register for a better tomorrow right now.

It may not be as easy as waving a magic wand, but you do have the power to make a difference in the world – not someday, but right now. I hope to see you in New Bedford.
